The eighteenth Article of the Church of England.

Of obtaining Eternal Salvation only by the Name of Christ.

THEY also are to be had Accursed that presume to say, That every Man shall be saved by the Law or Sect which he professeth, so that he be diligent to frame his Life accor∣ding to that Law, and the Light of Nature: For Holy Scripture doth set out unto us only the Name of Jesus Christ, whereby Men must be saved.

The Presbyterians.

Persons not Elected, although they may be call'd by the Ministry of the Word, and may have some common Operations of the Spirit, yet they ne∣ver truly come unto Christ, and there∣fore cannot be saved: Much less can men not professing the Christian Reli∣gion be saved in any other way what∣soever, be they never so diligent to frame their Lives according to the Light of Nature, and the Law of that Religion they profess. And to assert that they may, is very pernicious and detestable.

The Papists

Own the Words of this Article, but in effect deny the latter part thereof, by trusting in the Mediation and Intercession of the Virgin Mary, and other Saints and Angels, and praying unto and worship∣ping them, &c.
