And as these are the fundamentall points of faith necessary to salvation so also are they only necessary as matter of faith ●nd also essential to the calling of a christian as may appear by many evident places of Holy Scripture Joh. 5.39 Search the Scriptures for in them you think to have eteral life and they are they which testifie of me Now forasmuch as by the Scripture is meant there the Old Testament the New being then not written the beleife of that which was written concerning our Saviour in the old Testament was sufficient beleife for the obtaining of Eternal Life but in the old Testament there is nothing revealed concerning Christ but that he is the Messiah and such things as belong to the Fundamentall Points thereupon depending And therefore those fundamental Points are sufficient to salvation as of Faith And Joh. 6.28.29 Then sayd they unto him what shall we do that we might work the works of God Jesus answered and said unto them this is the work of God that ye beleeve in him whom he hath sent So that the Point to be beleived is That Jesus Christ came forth from God and he which believeth it worketh the works of God Joh. 11.26.27 Whosoever liveth and beleiveth in me shall never dye Beleevest thou this She sayd unto him yea Lord I beleeve that thou art the Christ the Son of God which should come into the World Hence followeth He that beleiveth this shall never dye Joh. 20.31 But these things are wri●ten that ye might beleeve that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God and that in beleiving ye might have life through his Name By which appeareth that this Fundamentall Point is all that is required as of Faith to our Salvation 1 Joh. 4.2 Every Spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come into the flesh is of God 1 Joh. 5.1 Whosoever beleiveth that J●s●s is the Christ is born of God and ver. 5.
