1. Proposition. The Nicen, Athanasian, and Apostolicall Creedes, ought to be receiued, and beleeued.

THis Proposition the Churches of God, both aunciently, and in these daies a 1.1, doe acknowledge for true.

The adversaries vnto this truth.

Therefore much out of the way of Godlinesse are they, which tearme the Apostles Creede, A forged patcherie, as Barrowe doth a 1.2, and Athanasius, Sathanasius creede, so did Gregorius Paulus in Polouia b 1.3, and in the newe Arrians, and Nestorians in Lituania c 1.4.

My selfe some 8. yeares agoe, heard a great learned man, whose name vpon an other occasion afore is expressed (to whose acquaintance I was artificially brought) which in pri∣vate conference betweene him, and my selfe, tearmed worthy Zanchius a Foole, & an Asse, from his booke de tribus Elohim, which refuteth the newe Arrians, against whose sounders, the Creedes of Athanasius, and Nicene were deuised. Him atten∣tiuely I heard, but could neuer, since abide for those wordes: & in deede I neuer sawe him since.
