regard of that publike Catechising inioyned by authority that by reading in priuate they may bee the better able to vnderstand the Minister in publike and so shall the Minister profit the people with lesse labour in teaching in regard of often repeating of the same grounds and indeed to speake truly it is the duty of euery Maister or Gouernour of a Family to teach and instruct their owne Family in the grounds of Religion in their owne priuate Houses and not leaue all for the Minister to doe in publike and because all are not able in regard of knowledge to instruct their Families of themselues it is necessary that they get such Catechismes as are printed in which the grounds of Religion are most plainely preoued and set forth And among many other Chatechismes as I conceiue you shall find this to bee one by which you may benefit both your selues and your family especially if you in reading marke and obserue what dependencie one thing hath vpon another But it may be some will obiect and say that this Chatechisine is too large concerning too many things for one thing is necessary to be knowne which is God in Christ and therefore what neede people trouble their heads to know so many things To which I answer That I freely confesse that according to the words of Christ Iohn 17.3 This is life eternall to know thee to bee the very God and whom thou hast sent Iesus Christ the which are the maine things contained in this Chatechisme for to know God aright is to know him in his nature in his Attributes in the Trinity of persons and in his workes And to know Christ aright is to know him in his Person in his Natures and in his Offices And whosoeuer doth not in some measure thus know God and Christ knowes neither God nor Christ but meerely a fantacy of their owne braines Neither could I well tell how to contract those grounds into a shorter volume for sure I am that the gleanings which are left behind are more then the whole Croppe heere gathered together Againe I did so neere as possibly I could make Christ the maine subiect of this Treatise and that those that reade with vnderstanding may plainely see by the drift and scope of the same for all those things which go before the couenant of grace concerning the fall of man his miserie by reason of sinne and the puninshment thereof serues to make man see how miser able he is without Christ. And all those things concerning the law are to serue vnto Christ as the ministery of Iohn Baptist going before to make way for Christ Mat. 3.3 and all the rest following are either concerning the person of Christ the two natures of Christ the offices of Christ or the Kingdome of Christ so that Christ and his Kingdome are the mayne things contained in this Cathechisme Wherefore I desire not to write much in commendation of the same but rather desire that the worke may prayse it selfe wishing that the reader may finde as much benefit in reading as I found in writing howsoeuer I desire that it may bee accepted as a testimony of my loue vnto the truth and the Church and people in which I liue for whose sakes I haue improued that small talent which the Lord hath lent me desiring that it may be to Gods glory and his Churches good which that it may so bee I commend and commit both you and it vnto the blessing of almighty God and rest yours in the Lord I G. ¶ A Table containing the chiefe heads and Principall matters in this Treatise COncerning the Scriptures and the Attributes of them pag. 1.
