Declare these things in order and first to the first of them What meanest thou by the Devill A.

By taking heed to the word of God Ps 119.9 11 and so believing the Articles of the Christian Faith Q. 21. What callest thou the Articles of the Christian Faith A. The principles of the Word or Gopel of God Heb. 6.1 as those contained in that called The Apostles Creed Q. 22. Rehearse that Creed A. I believe in God c. Q. 23. Into what principles may those Articles be reduced A. Into these six First That Almighty God the Maker and Governor of all things made man in a very happy estate Secondly That man continued not in that happiness but sinned and fell into exceeding misery with all his posterity Thirdly That God hath provided a full and perfect remedy for fallen mankinde in his Son Jesus Christ Fourthly That the way to enjoy that remedy is faith in him Fifthly That God affords men means and helps for their believing and abiding in Faith Sixthly That they who believe shall have eternal blesse and the unbeliever everlasting misery Principle I.

What did and doth God ever since Exod. 20.11 A. Exercise his

curse of it due to us Q. 83. What manner of death dyed he A. The most accursed shamefull death of the Cross Phil. 2.8 Gal. 3.13 John 19.13 16. Mat. 26 38. 27.46 Luc. 22 41 42 43. to which he was unjustly adjudged by the Magistrate as a publike Offendor besides the feeling of most bitter Agonies in his Soul pressing him to death Q. 84. How was it manifest that he was indeed dead A. Both by a Souldiers peircing his side with a sp●ear Joh. 19.34.42 Mat. 12 40. p ● 4.8 9 10. so as there came forth water and blood and by his being part of the three days three nights in the earth to sanctifie the grave to us and redeem us from it Q. 85. Wherein consists the vertue of his death A. In satisfaction to the law and justice of God thereby made Isa 42.21 Heb. 9.12 Phil. 2.10 11. and in the merit of further grace and power by it Q. 86. How doth it appear that the law and justice of God was hereby satisfied for us A In that he raised him up ag●in the third day 1 Cor. 15.3 4 17 Isa 57 8. Eph. 2 17 therein taking him from prison and judgment and in that he hereupon proclaims peace and pardon to us Q. 87. For whom was his death a satisfactory ransome A. For all men none excepted Tim. 2.6 Q 88. How doth that appear A. By the Scriptures plainly telling us that he died and gave himself a ransome for All and tasted death for every one 2 Cor. 5.14 15. Heb. 2.9 1 Tim. 2.6 Ro. 5.18 1 Tim. 4.10 Ps 145 9. Mar. 16.16 Act. 13.37 38 39 40 41. c. And by Gods dealing with all contrary to the defect of their sin and sinfulnes and holding forth pardon peace to all in the Gospel without requiring any new satisfaction of them Q 89.

Hath not his death ransomed men from those sins too A. Properly not so as to make the forgivenes of them due to all he dyed for 2 Cor. 5.14 15. Rom. 5.12 18. Act. 13.37 38 39 40 41. Mat. 18.23 26 27.31 32 33 34 35. For to ransome being to free from some forecontracted bondage the death of Christ cannot properly be said to ransome men from the bondage they after bring upon themselves by sinning against him and his ransome but only from what he found men under by Adams sinning and their sin as necessarily springing therefrom as considered before and without his interposing Q. 92. Must all they then that sin against his ●…diation and the light afforded by him perish A. All that persist finally so to sin shall Psal 68.21 Pro. 1.22 23 24. Ezek. 18.22 23 16 Act. 13.39 but not all that at any time sin such sins for he can forgive them also and doth to them that repent of them Q. 93. How can that be A. Very well because of the superabundant worth and merit of his death above the demerit of Adams sin Rom. 5.15 16 17. and of all the sin he thereby found upon us and because of the power he hath thereby obtained Q. 94. What did he thereby further merit and obtain A. Absolute Lordship over men in the nature of man Rom. 14.9 Phil. 2 9 10 11 Ps 68.18 19 20 Rev. 3 7 Is 42.6 7.19 20 21. Heb. 9.15 and so power to forbear and exercise goodnes towards sinfull men even such as sin against his grace also as he pleases and a Law or Covenant of Grace to be made and ratified with men through his blood Q. 95. What is the tenor of that Law or Covenant of Grace A. That whoever repent of their sins and believe in and obey him Mar. 16.15 Isa 55.2 3 4.7 Eze. 33.16 Act. 13.37 38 39 40 41. shall be forgiven and saved from all their sins and be made partakers of eternal life by him and they onely that finally reject him shall perish therefore in their sin Q. 96. When did he receive the foresaid power of Lordship A. He most fully received it in the nature of man Ps 68.18 with Acts 2 33 36. Eph. 4.8 9. when he entered upon the most full and glorious execution of his foresaid Offices in and from heaven namely in his exaltation or Ascention Q. 97. How doth he more fully exercise his Priestly Office in Heaven A. He in his Ascension thither offered and presented himself as the prepared Sacrifice to his Father Heb. 8.1 4 9.14 Ps 110.1.4 Lev. 8.9 with Heb. 7.27 and 9.12.14 7.25 and was thereby consecrated the great High Priest and as the great High Priest appears within the vail even in the presence of God and makes Intercession for us Q. 98. VVhat is his making Intercession A. The presenting to and improving with God the vertues of his Sacrifice Is 53.12 Luc. 13.7 8 Joh. 17.6.20 21 22 23 24. Heb. 7.25 8.10 11 12 9.15 and his will or desire hereupon for such forbearance and goodnes towards sinners as he pleases and that forgiveness special favour and blessing may be vouchsafed to them that believe according to the Covenant Q. 99. Whom doth he exercise his Priestly Office in Heaven for A. He is hereby the propitiation for the sins of the whole world 1 Joh. 2.2 Ps 145.9.17 Rev. 22 17. Is 55.1 2.6 7. Heb. 2.17 10.14 rendring God good to all and ready to accept all or any in coming to him hereby but the actuall and perfect reconciliation he is to them only that so come Q. 100. How doth he more fully exercise his Prophetical Office in and from heaven A. Having there fully received the fulnes of Spirit Acts 2.33 Eph. 1.8 9 10 11. 3.5 Heb. 12.25 Joh. 14.16 17. 16 13 14 15. he powred it forth upon his Apostles and by them gave forth the most full and clear discovery of his Fathers will by which he yet speaks from heaven and in which by his Spirit he teaches and comforts his people and leads them unto life Q. 01. To whom is he a Prophet A. B●th to them that he●r him and to them that for not hearing him perish But they onely that hear him have the choise things of Gods kingdome opened to them Acts 3.22 23. Mat. 13.11 12 13 14 15 16. Prov. 1.22.23 24 25. Ps 25.8.12 14. of which the rest deprive themselves by rejecting him Q. 102. How doth he more fully exercise his Kingly Office in and from heaven A. Being set on the throne of Majesty he further in larges and preserves his Church against the assaults of enemies Heb. 1.3 Acts 2. 4. Ps 110.1 2 3 5 6.

would perswade men otherwise Q. 181. How is it so behoofull in respect of ☜ a mans selfe A. First it conduces much to his believing Tit. 2.11 12. 3.3 4 5 6. Psal 9.10 36.7 8 9. Isa 55.1.2 3 4 5 6 7. for being by the undoubted word of God informed that God hath done so gratiously for all and so for him it gives him evident ground to blesse God for it repent of his evill against such a God and have good thoughts of him and with good hope and incouragement seeke to injoy the cure prepared by him 2. 1 Cor. 14.8 Acts 2.37 38 39. Gen. 21.15 16 19. Joh. 12.46 47 48 49. It will afford help against such doubtings discouragements and temptations to dispair which the convincement of a mans misery and ignorance of a remedy provided for him exposes men unto 3. In case a man neglect it when so plainly set before him his condemnation will be more just and God more glorified therein Q. 182. How is it behoofull in respect of o●hers 1 Tim. 2 1 2 3 4 5 6. A. It will afford a man good ground to love ●nd pray for them till he see any of them exclude themselves the benefit thereof by a sinning to death in a willfull malicious rejection of it Mat. 3.44 45. Eph. 5.1 1 Joh. 5.16 2 Cor. 3.12 13. 4.1 2 5.14 15.19 6.1 2. 2. It will furnish a man to help his neighbour while he can as plainly and confidently set the remedy as his misery before him Q 183. But may not a man as well and surely know the remedy to be for him by his believing well walking or the like A. No surely Pro. 28.26 Jer. 17.9 23.25 26 27 28 29. 2 Pet. 1.19 Tit. 3.5 Rom. 3.25 4.24 25 Gen. 15.6 Rom. 4.17 18. 1 Joh. 5.10 11 Luc. 18.9 10 11. 2 Cor. 10.17 For i● the acts of a mans own deceitfull heart or any pretended revelations are nothing so evident a foundation of believing as the word of God is 2. Nor can that be proved to be a right Gopel faith that goes before an apprehension of Gods goodnes to a man and centers not in Christs blood as shed for him and therefore cannot be fit to evidence those things to him 3. The act of faith doth not evidence the truth of its objects but receives it as a thing otherwise fore evidenced 4. By that way many are made Pharisees trusting in themselves that they are righteous and despising others Gen. 3.13 Jude 14. Heb. 11.7 2 Pet. 2.5 Gal. 3.8 Act. 3.22 23 24 Heb 1.10 2.3 4 2 Cor. 3.18 Q. 184. When began the Gospel to be published A. In Paradise presently upon mans fall and so hath been further opened to and by the Patriarks and Prophets but most fully by Christ himself and his Apostles and especially since his Ascension ☜ Q. 185. Are all the scriptures alike usefull for working and preserving faith A. No sure though all be usefull Rom. 1.16 17 10.8 9 10 17. 2 Cor. 3.7 8 yet the Gospel is properly the word of Faith the ministration of Spirit and power of God to salvation to every one that believes Q. 186. Is faith wrought in all that have the Gospel then A. No all have not faith 2 Thes 3.2 Jo. 6 44 45 Isai 55.2 3 but only they that hear and learn of God they believe come to Christ and their souls shall live Q. 187. VVhy do not others believe A. Because they do not hear learn of God Joh 8.43 10.26 27. Q. 188. Can any man hear of himself A. No as the ability to hear outwardly is of Gods gift Pro. 20.12 Rom. 10.17 Joh. 5.25 so the word outwardly heard brings to men by the gift of Gods power of more in ward hearing attention Q 189. How is it then that some hear not Ps 58.4 5 Mat. 13.15 Acts 28.27 Zech. 7.11 12 13 Psal 81.10 11 12 13. Rom 9 1● 1.24 28 Psa 81.11 12 Luc. 13.25 26. Joh. 12.39 40. Jer. 6.29 30 A. Because they stop their ears and harden their hearts least they should understand and be converted wilfully following after Sathan for which oftentimes God actually reprobates them Q. 190. VVhat is actuall Reprobation A. Gods giving men up to blindness and hardness of heart shutting the door of life against hem so as they cannot believe but run themselves into destruction Q. 191. VVhat be the ordinances injoyned in the word as meanes of faith especially of preserving and increasing it A. They be chiefly the two Sacraments so called namely Baptisme and the Supper of the Lord and Prayer Q. 192. VVhat is a Sacrament A. An holy and visible rite Rom. 4.11 appointed of God to his Church to signifie and seale his grace in Christ to men Q. 193. VVhat is Baptisme A. An ordinance of Christ in which by the washing of water unto the Name of the Father Luc. 3.2 Mat. 28.18 19 20. 3 11. Act. 2.38 39. Gal. 3.26 27 28. Son and Holy Ghost he hath appointed people to be discipled to him and admited into his Church therein signifying and sealing the forgivenesse of sins and accesse into the favour of fellowship with God through faith in his Name Q. 194. VVho are to be Baptised A. All that will submit to Christ they and theirs Mat. 28.19 20. Act. 16.14 31 33. that put him not from them Q. 195. VVhat is the Lords Supper A. An ordinance of Christ in which when he was about to suffer Mat. 26 26 27 28. 1 Cor. 11.26 27. he appointed his Disciples by the breaking and eating of one bread drinking together of one cup to remember him and his love to them Q. 196.
