Iesus answered and said unto him Art thou a Master in Israel and knowest not these things Acts 17. 30. 31. And the times of this ignorance God winked at but now commandeth all men every where to repent because he hath appointed a day wherein he will judge the world in righteousnesse Acts 26. 17 18 19 20. Delivering thee from the people and from the Gentiles unto whom I now send thee To open their eyes and to turne them from darknesse to light and from the power of Satan unto God that they may receive forgivenesse of sins and inheritance among them that are sanctified by faith in mee VVhereupon I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision but shewed first to them at Damascus and at Jerusalem and throughout all the coasts of Iudea and then to the Gentiles that they should repent and turne to God and doe workes meet for repentance Luk. 24. 47 that repentance and forgivenesse of sins should be preached in his Name among all Nations Acts 20. 20 21.

For as much as we have heard that certaine which went out from us have troubled you with words subverting your soules saying yee must be circumcised and keep the Law compared with Gal. 1 6 7 8 9.

But Israel which followed after the Law of righteousnesse hath not attained to the Law of righteousnesse wherefore because they sought it not by faith but as it were by the workes of the Law for they stumbled at that stumbling stone As it is written Behold I lay in Sion a stumbling stone and rocke of offence and whosoever beleeveth on him shal not be ashamed compared with Rom. 10. ver. 3. 4.

But that no man is justified by the Law in the sight of God it is evident for the just shall live by faith Eph. 2. 8 9 10.

themselves but to shew that without the beliefe of them Salvation is not to be obtained FIrst That the holy Scripture is that rule of knowing God and living unto him which who so doth not believe but betakes himselfe to any other way of discovering truth and the minde of God instead thereof cannot be saved 2 Thess. 2. 10 11 12. Because they received not the love of the Truth that they might be saved and for this cause God shall send them strong delusions that they should beleeve a Lye that they all might be damned who beleeve not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousnesse ver. 13. But we are bound to give th●●…●…s alway to God for you Brethren beloved of the Lord because God hath from the beginning chosen you to Salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and beliefe of the truth ver. 14. whereunto he called you by our Gospel to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ 15.

Moreover Brethren I declare unto you the Gospel which I preached unto you which also you have received and wherein yee stand By which also yee are saved if yee keep in memory what I Preached unto you unlesse yee have beleeved in vaine For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received how that Christ dyed for our sins according to the Scriptures 2 Cor. 1. 13. For we write none other things unto you then what you read or acknowledge and I trust you shall acknowledge even to the end compared with Acts 26. 22. c. Having therefore obtained help of God I continue unto this day witnessing both to small and great saying none other things then those which the Prophets and Moses did say should come Joh. 5. 39. Search the Scriptures for in them you thinke to have eternall life compared with Psalme 147. 19. 20. verses He shewed his word unto Jacob his statutes and Judgements unto Israel he hath not dealt so with any Nation and as for his Judgements they have not known them And with John 4. 22. Yee worship yee know ●●…t what we know what we worship for Salvation is of the Jews 2 Pet. 2. 1. But there were false Prophets also among the people even as there shall be false teachers among you who privily shall bring in damnable heresies even denying the Lord that bought them and bring upon themselves swift destruction compared with 2 Pet. 3. 1 2. This second Epistle beloved I now write unto you in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance That yee may be mindfull of the words which were spoken before by the holy Prophets and of the Commandement of us the Apostles of the Lord and Saviour II. That there is a God who is the Creator Governour and Judge of the world which is to be received by faith and every other way of the knowledge of him is insufficient Heb. 11. 3. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God So that things which are seen were not made of things which doe appear Verse 6. But without faith it is impossible to please God for he that cometh to God must beleeve that he is and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him Rom. 1. v. 19. Because that which may be known of God is manifested in them for God hath shewed it to them Verse 20. For the Invisible things of him from the Creation of the world are cleerly seen being understood by the things that are made even his eternall power and G●●●ead so that they are without excuse Verse 21. Because that when they knew God they glorified him not as God neither were thankfull but became vaine in their imaginations and their foolish heart was darkened Verse 22. Professing themselves to be wise they became fools compared with 1 Cor. 1. 21. For after that in the wisdome of God the world by wisdome knew not God it pleased God by the foolishnesse of preaching to save them that beleeve 2 Thes. 1. 8. To render vengeance on them that knew not God and that obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ III. That this God who is the Creator is eternally distinct from all the creatures in his being and blessednesse Rom. 1. v. 18. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodlinesse and unrighteousnesse of men who hold the truth in unrighteousnesse Verse 25. Who changed the truth of God into a lye and worshipped and served the creature more then the Creator who is blessed for ever Amen 1 Cor. 8. v. 5. For though there be that are called Gods whether in heaven or in earth as there be gods many and lords many Verse 6. But to us there is but one God the Father of whom are all things and we in him and one Lord Jesus Christ by whom are all things and we by him IV. That this God is one in three persons or subsistences 1 John 5. 5. Who is this that overcometh the world but he that beleeveth that Jesus is the Sonne of God Verse 6. This is he that came by water and blood even Jesus Christ not by water onely but by water and blood and it is the Spirit that beareth witnesse because the Spirit is truth Vers 7. For there are three that bear record in heaven the Father the word and the Holy Ghost and these three are one Verse 8. And there are three that beare witnesse in earth the Spirit the Water and the Blood and these three agree in one Verse 9. If we receive the witnesse of men the witnesse of God is greater for this is the witnesse of God which he hath testified of his Sonne Compared with John 8. 17.

There is one body and one spirit even as yee are called in one hope of your calling Ver. 5. One Lord one Faith one Baptisme 〈◊〉 6. One God and Father of all who is above all and through all and in you all 1 John 2. 22. Who is a lyar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ he is Antichrist that denieth the Father and the Sonne Verse 23. Whosoever denieth the Sonne the same hath not the Father but he that acknowledgeth the Sonne hath the Father
