* 1.1 OVT OF THE CONFESSION OF BASILL.

WE also beleeue, that God made all thinges by hi euerlasting word: that is, by his onelie begotten sonne and that he vpholdeth and worketh all thinges by his spirit, that is, by his owne power. And therefore that God, as he hath created, so he foreseeth and gouerneth all * 1.2thinges. And albeit man by the same fall became subiect to damnation, & so was made an enimie to god, yet that God neuer laid aside the care of mankinde. The Patriarks, the promises before and after the flood, likewise the law of God giuen by Moses & the holie Prophets, do witnes this thing.
