Here is taught who are saued 8 This Christ so expoundeth in the next verses and cap. 6.40.53 those onely who beleeue which is not to beleeue there is a God or that God made the worlde c. which yet are necessarie but to beleeue in him that is in Iesus Christ the onely begotten sonne of God 9. Our saluation is most free certaine 9 It dependeth vpoÌ„ Gods loue Ioh. 13.1 T it 1.2 10. 10 In the worde giue Eph 2.8 Our saluation is of the free grace of God without our deseruing 11. 11 This is seen in his person aboue all sacrificers Heb. 10.11.12.13 Our Saluation is perfectly wrought by Christ alone 12. 12 1. Pet. 2.6 7.8 Mat. 7.13 Mar. 16.16 There are two waies of mens life by the decree of God some by beleefe in Christ shall be saued some for vnbeleefe shall perish 13. There is a double life 13 Heb. 9.27 1. Thess 4.14 Matth. 25. and a double death one of the body onely and the other of bodie and soule 14. 14 Matt. 16.18 Mark 16.16 1. Ioh. 1.3 Eph. 4.15.16 Here is the catholike Churche the communion of Saintes remission of sinnes resurrection of the bodie and life euerlasting taught For the catholike Church is of all that beleeue in Christ the communion is our fellowship with God in Christ thorow the spirit in the vse of all his giftes or there is one God one Christ one faith and one saluation to all Remission of sinnes the resurrection of the bodie are part of those giftes which are shadowed is this eternall life for by forgiuenes of sinnes and the resurrection of the bodie wee come to eternall life 15. 15 1. Ioh. 4.11.19 1. Cor. 6.11.20 This place is most strong to teache men to liue godly soberly and righteously in this present world for what may more moue then the free loue of God the great price of our saluation the onely begotten sonne of God the order of our calling by the spirite to be regenerate vnto faith and lastly the saluation it selfe which is to bee deliuered from sinne 16. 16 This is taught Rom. 4 11. cap 6 2 3. 1. Cor. 10.16 You may ioyne vnto these though not expressed in the text as the rest That the Sacraments are signes to teach vs as seales to applie vnto vs this doctrine Comforts out of this doctrine HEre is the place to explaine the sweete comfortes of this doctrine which I may terme the pleasant taste of these good fruites which I desire that euery Master would carefully and painefully drop into his familie that they may taste how good the Lorde is and feele that they knowe for this will mightelie worke towards faith so that his labour shall be ioyfull in the ende The comforts are gathered by the consideratioÌ„ of the persons meditation of the things Comforts by the consideration of the persons 1. 1 Psal 23.1 Rom. 8.31.32 Eph. 1.13.14 Beholde here the great loue of the almightie and glorious God the loue of Christ his sonne and of the holy Ghost What was greater in God then his sonne That hee gaue for to vs. What is greater in the sonne then himselfe That he bestowed vpon vs. What is more precious then the power and goodnes of the spirit that hee powreth into vs renewing and endowing vs with faith and sanctification O how vnspeakeable is the goodnes of God for the assurance of our saluation so that no man can doubt but euery soule that knoweth and feeleth these things must needs reioyce with ioy vnspeakeable and glorious 2. 2 Rom. 5 6.7 8.9.10 1. Ioh. 4.9.10 Marke who they bee vpon whom this glorious God bestoweth this great gift vpon the world euen vs men who hauing offended him by sinne are his enemies by euill mindes and are weake being able to doe nothing to recompense him or to comfort or helpe our selues but he chooseth vs he redeemeth vs he sanctifieth vs he glorifieth vs. Must not this being well wayed make vs burst out with the blessed virgin a Luk. 1.46 My soule doth magnifie the Lorde and my spirite reioyceth in God my sauiour Comfort by the meditation of the things 3. 3 Eph. 2.1.2.3.4.5.6 1. Pet. 2.9.10 cap. 1.3.4.5 Coloss 1.12.13 Reuel 1 5.6 Philip. 3.20 2. Tim. 4.8 Call to minde in what miserie danger and wofull condition we be of ourselues into what happines freedome and blessed estate we bee brought by Gods loue in Christ from sinne from death from hell from the curse of the lawe from the power of Sathan from the wrath of God and eternall corruption anguish and searefull sorrow into the glorious libertie of the sonnes of God to immortalitie and in corruption to the crowne of righteousnes and to be the sonnes and daughters of God heyres of the kingdome of Heauen to the fulnes of ioyes in the presence of God for euermore Mine heart cannot conceiue my pen cannot write the vnsearcheable riches of Christ the price of this pearle for which a man would sell all that he hath And this is freely giuen vs perfectly wrought for vs assuredly kept for vs how may we triumph and glorie in our God Reioyce in the Lorde alway and againe I say reioyce When the soule is thus seasoned with the taste of this heauenly doctrine Admonition to the householder then may the Master of the familie boldlie descrie vnto them the errors which are contrarie to these trueths And this he shall finde a perfect rule that the true doctrine being once vprightly taught whatsoeuer is not agreeing thereunto is falsehood and to be auoyded as a Epist 2. ver 9 Iohn teacheth Whosoeuer transgresseth and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ hath not God Now the errors are infinite as there are many by-waies and but one true waie So b Eccles 7.31 God made man righteous but they haue found out many inuentions I will name but a fewe in comparison yet so many as I would the Master of the house should vse discretion in rehearsing of them to his familie namely some fewe at once and so it wil much further them euen as by all contraries euery good thing is the more perceiued felt and esteemed In repeating of these he must rehearse the true doctrine and so compare them together that they may perceiue this to bee contrary to that as light vnto darknes And therefore by figures answering to the doctrines I wil shew him which are contrarie to each other and with a little heede taking and attention hee shall finde it easie The errors and heresies contrarie to the good doctrine 1. THe first doctrine condemneth all these i. the Atheists of whom Psal 14.1 Secondly the Philosophers who make God to bee idle and not to haue care of the world thirdly the gentiles who turned the glory of the incorruptible God

The doctrine of the estate of man without Christ condemneth them c Pelagians who deny children to be corrupted with originall sinne and that without the grace of God a man may doe all the commandements of God and d Papists they who dreame of certaine pure naturals by which they imagine they can prepare themselues to grace and worke with grace the merit to saluation 2. Cor. 3.5 Philip 2.13 Heb. 12.2 There bee also some among vs who thorow ignorance doe very lightly feele their miserie and how wickedly soeuer they liue they yet fancie to themselues an happie estate they say they will doe well or pray or aske pardon but not feeling the deep wound of sinne they little feare the sore and grieuous punishment which hangeth ouer their heads for neglecting so great saluation by Christ Heb. 2.1.2.3 and 12.25 7. The doctrine of the causes of our saluation first in the good pleasure of Gods will condemneth them e Pelagians who doe vtterly deny predestination to establish free-will And theÌ„ f Papists who tye it to workes foreseene Rom. 9.11 Concerning Christ the meanes it condemneth them g Heracleans who put in his roome oyntments and ceremonies And the Papists as before in the 5. Heb. 1.5 The doctrine of faith applying Christ is against the Papists who would ioyne workes Rom. 3.28 8. This ouerthroweth all Atheists Deists Sophisters and ignorant brablers who frame to themselues a God or saluation without faith in Christ 1. Tim. 3.16 Gal. 3.26 9. The doctrine of certaintie confuteth the Papists who would haue men to doubt of their saluation Heb. 10.19.20.21.23 10. Free saluation excludeth merit Tit. 3.4 11. Perfect saluation ouerthroweth the sacrifice of the Masse and much popish trash 2. Pet. 1.3 12. This ouerthroweth Purgatorie which is made a third place contrarie to 1. Iohn 1.7 13. This refelleth them a Cerdonians who deny the resurrection or b Hymineus Philetus say it is past alreadie or c Epicures make their happines in this life 1. Thess 4.14 1. Ioh. 3.1 14. This reprooueth them d Gnostici who make faith a naked knowledge of the Gospel without the fruites of good workes or e Libertines make good workes contrarie to faith or f Antitactae will men to be free from Gods commandements Eph. 4.24 Gal. 5.6 Eph. 2.10 15. Concerning the Sacraments in another place onely here if it can bee taught the difference of the outward signe and the thing signified and that these are not to bee confounded neither that which is proper to the one to bee giuen to the other it shall giue cleere sight against many errors As g 1. Pet. 3.31 Peter speaketh of Baptisme that it saueth vs openeth his meaning saying not the washing away of the filth of the flesh which is the outward signe but the inward working of the spirit which is in the answer to God and by the resurrection of Christ So h 22.19 Christ calling the bread his bodie dooth yet teach vs to follow this rule when he biddeth vs doe all that actioÌ„ of receiuing it in remembrance of him So that the outward action is as the signe and seale but the power of working is in the thing signified which is Christ by his spirit applying through faith that heauenly washing and foode vnto our soules CAP. 9. The seuenth Catechisme for establishing of iudgement HEre I will choose two places of holy scripture because mine especiall purpose is to teach the doctrine of the Sacraments and handle them both together and because they are seales of the couenant of grace the couenant also is therewithall to be declared that the one may shewe the vse of the other and each take light strength from other which I can hardly doe out of any one text The first Text. Tit. 3. vers 3. We our selues were in times past vnwise disobedient deceiued seruing the lusts diuers pleasures liuing in maliciousnes and enuie hatefull and hating one another 4. But when the bountifulnes and loue of God our Sauiour towards man appeared 5. Not by the works of righteousnes which wee had done but according to his mercie hee saued vs by the washing of the new birth and renewing of the holy Ghost 6. Which he shed on vs abundantly through Iesus Christ our Lord. 7. That wee being iustified by his grace should bee made heires according to hope of eternall life The second Text. 1. Cor. 11.23

holy vse by Christ prescribed 10. 10 The first disagreement with others The fiue forged Sacraments of the Church of Rome cannot bee reckoned with these because they are not pertaining to the couenant nor commaunded by God with outward signes to the vses here described but either haue no outward signes as Penance or els other significations and vses As Matrimonie hath no signe ordained of God to this vse but sometime is made an * Hoseah 2.19 Eph. 5.23 allegorie or metaphor and sometime is taught by comparison from Christ and his Church Orders haue imposition of hands but not commanded by God for the grace of this couenant or to bee badges of our profession but for the * 1. Tim. 4.14 grace of the office of the Ministrie So the annoynting of the sicke in the Gospell is not taught as the Papists vse it but only to bee an * Iam. 5.14 outward signe in healing the bodie but a SacrameÌ„t is for the comfort of the soule The like may be sayd of the other 11. 11 The second difference in themselues The differences betweene these two Sacraments of the couenant in themselues are these 1. In the signe Baptisme hath water and washing the Lords Supper hath bread and wine eating and drinking c. 2. In the manner of signifying because they apply the couenant to vs in diuers sorts Baptisme applieth it as our first entring into couenant and there it signifieth our new birth and renewing c. and therefore all that are * Act. 10.47 with the places before quoted first receiued into the Church are admitted by Baptisme and a man is but once baptized because hee is but once to bee borne againe The Lords Supper applieth the couenant in regard of the euerlasting continuance of fauour betweene God and vs in Christ therefore wee eate bread and drinke wine as liuely signes of our growing increasing in Christ in faith and good life and in all assurednes of eternall life And therefore it is often vsed that wee may continually bee strengthened and confirmed in his grace from faith to faith 12. 12 The third difference from others In all this declaration agreeing to holie Scripture and so in all the Bible beside you shall neuer sinde that the Sacraments by the outward worke wrought doe giue grace or that the signe leeseth his nature to be turned into the thing signified or that there is a reall locall and corporall presence of the thing in the outward signe or that in Baptisme exorcisme creame spettle salt or any other thing is to be mingled or vsed but onely water or that in the Lords Supper there should bee an vnbloudie sacrifice the bread adored reserued or carried about or the wine should bee kept from the common people Therefore all these and whatsoeuer other additaments and abuses of the holy Sacraments are altogether to be reiected and condemned by the rule Apostolicall because they are not receiued of the Lord. Here the master of the familie may applie the substance of the former Catechisme to his folke by this place 1. Cor. 12. vers 13. By one spirit wee are all baptized into one bodie whether we bee Iewes or Grecians whether we bee bond or free and haue been all made to drinke into one spirit 1. One bodie one spirit Where one bodie and one spirit to Iew and Gentill c. shew the couenant in grace and communion of God with all nations and sorts of people thorow Christ by his spirit in one bodie 2. Both Sacraments teach Baptised into Drinke into there is one holie communion betweene GOD and his Church 3. Baptisme our regeneration and incorporation into the same communion the Lords Supper our daily nourishment from our head Christ growing together in the same couenant CAP. 10. The fourth order of Catechisme NOw for the masters further helpe To the householder I will commend vnto him these foure places namely Ephes 2.8.9.10 2. Thess 2.13.14 Tit. 2.11.12.13.14 Iam. 1.18 whereof hee shall see euery one fit to bring into his remeÌ„brance the doctrines of the former Catechismes And I hope both he and his familie may easily gather the same of themselues being made ripe thereunto by their former practise reioycing in the plentifull and sweete consent of so many places of Gods word and admiring the goodnes of God that so abundantly and liberally bestoweth vpon vs his rich treasures of wisedom and vnderstanding And if in them he finde something not easie let the master repayre to his pastor and seeke the lawe at his mouth For a Malac. 2.7 his lippes should preserue knowledge being the messenger of the Lorde of hostes and b ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ 4.1 steward of the secrets of GOD. Howbeit in so waightie and needfull prouision I woulde haue this housholder to bee well stored that hee maye feede his familie with more ioy and plentie to make them strong well liking in the house of our God children that boldly will answer the enemie in the gates and sight valiantly the battels of the Lord. Therefore I will here adde two Catechismes more for his helpe where the first will shew him in a notable order Iacobs Ladder namely by what steppes God bringeth all his children into the euerlasting kingdome of our Lord Iesus Christ and the heauenly mansions of his diuine palace And this is in one scripture most orderly compact together by the heauenly spirit The other is * Therefore I make it a book by itselfe and â—â—uide it into chapters a more perfect bodie of Christirn doctrine of many and diuers places of scripture as a shining light vnto the feete of all Gods children in the dayes of their pilgrimage till they shal come into the land of their celestiall inheritance The eyght Catechisme for helpe of the housholder The text Ephes 1.3 Blessed bee God euen the father of our Lorde Iesus Christ which hath blessed vs with all spirituall blessings in heauenly things in Christ. 4. As hee hath chosen vs in him before the foundation of the world that wee should bee holie and without blame before him in loue 5. Who hath predestinated vs to bee adopted thorow Iesus Christ vnto himselfe according to the good pleasure of his will 6. To the praise of the glorie of his grace wherewith hee hath made vs accepted in his beloued 7. By whom we haue redemption through his blood euen the forgiuenes of sinnes according to his rich grace 8. Whereby hee hath been aboundant toward vs in all wisdome and vnderstanding 9. And opened vnto vs the mysterie of his will according to the good pleasure which he had purposed in him 10. That in the dispensation of the fulnes of times he might gather together in one all thinges both which are in heauen and which are in earth In shewing the Catechisme out of this text I will follow this order In the middle by interpretation I will poynte out the golden steppes of this heauenly
