II. The doctrine of the Apostells and Prophetes is 〈◊〉 ●●●●●ation of Christes Churche IOHN CRESPIN M.D.LVI Of the Articles of faithe ¶ The M nister Sonday The fyrst VVHAT is the principall and chiefe ende of mans life ¶ The Childe To knowe God wherunto man was createde and made ¶ The minister What moueth the to say so ¶ The childe Because he hath created vs and placed vs in this worlde to set forth his glory in vs. And it is good reason that we employ our whole life to the auauncement of hys glory seing he is the originall beginning fountayne therof ¶ The minister What is then the principall and chiefe felicitie of man ¶ The childe Euen the self same I meane to know God The greatest felicitie that man cā attayne to and to haue hys glory shewed furth in vs. ¶ The minister Why dost thou call this mans chiefe felicitie ¶ The childe Because that without it our condicyon or state were more miserable then the state of brute beastes ¶ The minister Hereby then we may euidently see that there can no suche miserye happen vnto man as not to lyue in the knowledge of God ¶ The childe That is moste certeyne ¶ The minister But tel me what is the true and right knowledge of God ¶ The childe Whan a man so knoweth God that he is in ful mind to honor him ¶ The Minister Which is the way for a man to honor God a ryght ¶ The childe It is to put our whole trust confidence in hym to studye to serue him in obeying vnto his wil commaundementes to seke cal vpon him for help in our necessities The right maner to worshyp god stādeth in foure pointes looking for saluacion al good thinges at his hand And finally to acknowlage both wyth heart and mouth that he is the liuely fountayne of all goodnesse from whom onely al benefites and good thynges doe come ¶ The minister Sonday 2 Wel than to the end that these thinges may be discussed in order declared more at large
Thou meaneste not hereby that the good dedes of faythfull menne are to no purpose and vnprofytable ¶ The childe I meane nothing lesse for god promyseth to rewarde them largely both in this worlde in the life to come And yet thys notwithstandyng those rewardes of God be not geuē for the worthy desertes of oure dedes but onely because it pleaseth GOD of his goodnes to loue vs freely so to couer and forget our fautes that he wil neuer cal them any more to remēbraunce ¶ The minister Aright faythe is neuer ydle May we perswade our selues that we are iuste without good woorkes without the diligente applying of oure selues to walke in al Goddes holy commaundementes ¶ The childe That is not possyble for to beleue in Christ is as much to say what it is to beleue in Christ as to receiue Christ in such sort with such properties as he doth geue himselfe vnto vs now this is an euident thing that Christ doth not only promes to deliuer vs from death to restore vnto vs the louing fauour of god his father thorow the onely merites of his innocency But also he promiseth to make vs newe creatures by his holy spirite to the ende that we should leade a holy conuersacion in al good workes ¶ The minister Then I see that it is so farre from the offyce or workyng of faythe to make men despysers of good deedes or negligent to lyue godly that it is the very roote or lyuelye fountayne whereout all good woorkes doesprynge ¶ The childe Ye saye as the trueth is The effecte of the gospell is fayth repentance and for thys cause the doctryne of the gospell doeth consyste in these two poyntes faith and repentaunce ¶ The minister Sonday 21 And what maner of thynge is Repentaunce ¶ The childe It is and earneste dyspleasure to warde what repentāce is synne and therwith al a feruente desyre or longyng for godlines proceadyng of the feare or God and inducing vs to the mortifying of our carnall affectyons inclining vs altogether to the guiding and gouernaunce of the holy gost to serue God vnfeynedly ¶ The minister Thys then whiche we haue touched is the second poynt of a christen mans lyfe which standeth in seruyng of God ¶ The childe wherein the right seruinge of god stādyth Yea verely and we haue sayd also that the very ryghte and alowable seruyce of God doeth consyst in submyttyng our selues humbly vnto hym studying earnestly to doe according to hys wil. ¶ The minister Wherfore standeth gods seruice herin onely ¶ The childe Because he wil not be serued or wurshipped after our fantasy and imaginacion but after his own good pleasure ¶ The minister What rules or ordinaunces hath he prescrybed vnto vs to leade our lyfe by ¶ The childe His lawe ¶ The minister What thynges dothe yt conteyne ¶ The childe It is deuided into .ii. partes The law hath two partes where of the first doth containe foure commaundementes the seconde contayneth .vi. so that there be .x. in the whole ¶ The minister Who hath made this diuision therof ¶ The childe God hymselfe Exod. 32.34 Deu. 4.12 who also gaue it written in two tables vnto Moises saying that the whole was reduced into ten sentences ¶ The minister What is the matter or substaunce of the first table ¶ The childe It toucheth the due maner of woorshyppyng God The effecte of the first table ¶ The minister What is contayned in the seconde table ¶ The childe It sheweth vs in what maner we ought to behaue our selues towardes our neghboures The effect of the secōd table and what duetye we owe vnto them ¶ The minister Sonday 22 Rehearse the fyrste commaundement ¶ The childe The first cōmaundement Exod. 20 Deu. 5 HEarkē ād take heede Israell I am the lorde thy God whiche hath broght thee furth of the land of Egypt out of the house of bondage Thou shalt haue none other God before my face ¶ The minister Declare the meanyng hereof ¶ The childe It is a preface to begynne withal or an introduction to the whole law for he doth chalenge here vnto himself first autoritie to commaund naming hymselfe euerlasting the creator of the world and agayne after he calleth himselfe oure God wherby he moueth our heartes to haue in reuerence to esteme highly hys doctrine for if that he be oursauior it is good reason that we be also hys louing subiectes and obedient people ¶ The minister what signifieth the deliurance out of Egypte But that whiche foloweth after touching the deliueraunce from the miserable bondage of Egipt is it not referred pecularely to the people of Israel ¶ The childe Yes verely as cōcerning the deliuerāce from bodely bondage howbeit it belongeth also generallye vnto vs all with out excepciō in so much as he hath delyuered oure soules from the spirituall captiuitie of synne and from the tirāny of the deuyll and hys kyngedome whereof the bōdage of Egipt was but a figure ¶ The minister Why doeth he make mencion of thys in the very beginning of hys lawe ¶ The childe It is done to put vs in remembraunce how greatly we are bound to shewe vnto hym al obedience in performyng of his will and to sygnifye vnto vs what ingratitude and vnkindnes it is to do the cōtrary ¶ The minister And what is briefly the effecte of that he requyreth of vs in thys fyrst cōmaūdemēt ¶ The childe He enioyneth vs to reserue vnto hym onely the honor due vnto hym The summe of the first cōmaundement and that in no wyse we alienate or put it from him geuing the same vnto any other ¶ The minister What is the honour due vnto hym alone ¶ The childe To worship hym The honor that is due to god alone to put our whole trust in hym to call vpō hymād such other like which be attributed peculiarly and onely vnto his maiestye ¶ The minister Wherfore is that clause putte to before my face ¶ The childe Forsomuch as he seeth knoweth al thinges iudgeth the secret thoghtes of mens heartes he signifieth vnto vs that he doth not account it sufficient if we make a countenaunce or be are a faire shew before mē but that his wil is that also in very dede euen from the bottom of our heart with feruent affection we do take him for our only God ¶ The minister Sonday 23 Rehearse the seconde commaundement ¶ The childe The seconde cōmaundemente touching Images and the worshiping of them Se thou make thee no grauen image neither any similitude of any thing eyther in heauen aboue either in the earth beneath or in the waters which be beneth the earth thou shalt do no honor vnto them nor wurship them ¶ The minister Doth he vtterlye forbydde the makyng of any images ¶ The childe No but he doth forbid expresly eyther to make anye image thereby to represente or figure
