A BRIEF CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE To be learned by heart Of the end of a Christian and of the signe of the Holy Cross Master A Are you a Christian Scholar I am by the grace of God M What mean you by a Christian S. Him that maketh Profession of the Faith and Law of Christ M In what doth the Faith of Christ chiefly consist S. In two principal mysteries which are included in the sign of the Holy Cross that is in the Vnity and Trinity of God and in the Incarnation and Death of our Saviour M What meaneth Unity and Trinity of God S. It meaneth that in God there is one only Divinity or as we say Essence and Divine Nature which nevertheless is in three Divine Persons that are called Father Sun and Holy-Ghost M Wherefore are these Divine Persons S. Because the Father hath no beginning nor proceeds from another Person The Son proceeds from the Father And the Holy-Ghost from the Father and the Son M Wherefore are these three Persons only one God S. Because they have one self Essence one self Power one self wisdom and one sef-Goodness M. What meaneth Incarnation and Death of our Saviour S. It meaneth that the Son of God who is the second Person of the blessed Trinity became Man dyed upon the Cross to save us M. How are these two Mysteries included in the sign of the Cross S. Because we make the sign of the Cross by putting our right-hand first to the head saying In the name of the Father then under the breasts saying of the Son finally to the left right sholders saying of the Holy-Ghost Amen M. How then is there shewed the first Mystery of the most Blessed Trinity S. Because this word In the name signifieth the Vnity the other words signify the Trinity M. Shew now the second S. The figure of the Cross doth represent the death of our Saviour who after he was made man and had taught the way of Salvation with Doctrine with Example and with miracles dyed upon the Holy Wood of the Cross A Declaration of the Creed M. WHich is the Rule of our Belief S. It is the Symbole of the Apostles which we commonly call the Creed M. Say the Creed S. 1. I believe in God the Father-Almighty Creator of Heaven and Earth 2. And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord. 3. Who was conceived by the Holy-Ghost born of the Virgin Mary 4. Suffered under Pontius Pilate was crucified dead buried 5. Descended into Hell the third day he rose again from the dead 6. Ascended into Heaven sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty 7. from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead 8. I believe in the Holy-Ghost 9. The holy Catholick Church the Communion of Saints 10. Remission of sins 11. Resurrection of the flesh 12. Life everlasting Amen M. Who made the Creed S. The twelve Apostles therefore there be twelve Articles M. What do these Articles contain in sum S. All that which principally expresly we must believe of God and of the Church his Spouse because the eight first Articles pertain to God the four last to the Church M. Declare the first Article S. I firmly believe in one only God who is the natural Father of his only begotten Son and is also Father by the grace of all good Christians who are therefore called the Adopted Sons of God finally he is Father by Creation of all other things And this God is Omnipotent because He can do all that he will and hath created of nothing Heaven and Earth with whatsoever is in them that is the whole universal world M. Declare the second Article S. I believe also in JESUS CHRIST who is the only begotten Son of God the Father because he was begotten of the same Father Eternal and is God Eternal Infinite Omnipotent Creator and Lord of us and of all things as he is the Father M. Declare the Third S. I believe that Jesus Christ is not only true God but also true Man because he hath taken man's flesh of the immaculate Virgin Mary by virtue of the Holy-Ghost so was born on earth of Mother without Father as in Heaven he was born of Father without Mother M. Declare the Forth S. I believe that Jesus Christ to redeem the world with his precious blood suffered under Pontius Pilate Governour of Jury being scourged crowned with Thorns put upon the Cross on which he dyed being taken down from the same was buryed in a new Sepulcher M. Declare the Fifth S. I believe that Jesus Christ as soon as he was dead went with his soul to Limbus or the place of holy Fathers and the third day which was the Sunday he rose glorious and triumphant M Declare the sixth S I believe that Jesus Christ after he had forty dayes remained with the holy Apostles to prove with many apparitions his true Resurrection mounted up to the highest Heaven and there sitteth above all the Quires of Angels at the right hand of the Father that is in glory equal to the Father as Lord Governour of all Creatures M Declare the seventh S I believe that the same our Lord in the end of the world shall come from Heaven with most great power glory and shall judge all men giving to every man the reward or punishment he hath deserved M Declare the eighth S. I believe in the Holy Ghost who is the third Person of the most blessed Trinity and proceedeth from the Father and the Son and is in all and every thing equal to the Father and to the Son that is he is God Eternal Infinite Omnipotent Creator and Lord of all things as the Father and the Son M Declare the ninth S. I believe also that there is a Church which is the Congregation of all the faithfull Christians that are Baptized and I do believe confess the Faith of Christ our Lord and acknowledge the high Bishop of Rome for Vicar of the same Church on Earth M Why is this Church called Holy and Catholick S. Holy Because it hath the Head which is Christ Holy and for that it
