of all things.

8 I beleeue in the holy Ghost, the third Per∣son in Trinity; God equall with the Fa∣ther and Sonne, sanctifier of all the elect people of God.

Quest. Why say you, I beleeue in God, and not rather, in Gods, seing you make mention of three; the Father, Sonne, and Spirit?

Ans. Because there is but one true and euerliuing God, reuealed vnto vs in thrée persons, in whom my faith is staied.

Quest. Why do you say, I beleeue in God, and not rather, I beleeue a God?

Ans. To declare that I put my trust and confidence in him, for the Diuels and wic∣ked beleeue there is a God, but doe not put their trust and confidence in him.

Quest. Why say you, I beleeue, and not rather, we beleeue?

Ans. Because I must bée saued by mine owne faith, and not by the faith of others.

Quest. What is true faith which saueth vs?

Ans. It is a firme perswasion of the mercies of God purchased by our Lord Iesus Christ being the foundation of our hope and sight of things inuisible:

Quest. How must we attaine to this true faith, and how is it increased?

Ans. By the spirit of God, perswa∣ding our hearts by the hearing and rea∣ding of Gods Word, receauing the Sa∣craments and prayer, assuring vs that we are within the Couenant of grace reuea∣led by the Gospell.

Quest. Now you haue shewed that the Word of God, the Sacraments and prayer, strengthen faith: shew what is Prayer.

Ans. Prayer is a lifting vp of the minde, and powring out of the heart before God, by the motion of his Spirit, in the name of Iesus Christ his son, crauing things néed∣full, & giuing thanks for benefits receaued.

Ans. Yes, that which our Lord Iesus Christ hath taught, and is called the Lords prayer, containing all heauenly wisdome in that kind, consisting of sixe petitions, and a conclusion, as followeth, Our Father which art in heauen, &c.

Quest. To whom must wee pray, and in whose name?

Ans. To God only, the Father, Sonne,

and holy Ghost, in the name of Christ Ie∣sus.

Quest. Why do we then name the Fa∣ther only?

Ans. The word Father, in this place is not taken personally, but essentially, for in the action of true prayer, the holy Ghost is the first Mouer, the Son the Mediator, the Father gratiously hearing, returneth an answere in due time.

Quest. Why must we pray to the Father in the name of his Son Mediator?

Ans. Because God being displeased for sinne, we can haue no accesse vnto him, but by the meanes of Christ our Aduocate, in whom he is well pleased.

Quest. Why must we pray by the wor∣king of the holy Ghost?

Ans. Because the holy Ghost assu∣reth vs that God is our Father, and also teacheth vs how to pray, and what to pray for.

Quest. What things are to be obserued of vs in prayer?

First, before the action of prayer; 1. We must truly repent vs of our sinnes, and hartely purpose to amend.

2 In the action of prayer, 1. We must

haue faith in God through Christ.

3 Loue to our brethren, yea towards our enemies, and zeale of affection to per∣seuere.

And after prayer, 1. Wée must bée thankefull for grace.

Watchfull ouer our affections to better our obedience after, and patiently to tar∣rie the Lords leasure.

Quest. These being obserued before, in and after prayer: tell me how many parts be there of prayer?

Ans. Thrée parts: Confession of sinne, Petition for mercy and grace, thankes∣giuing for blessings receaued.

Quest. How many parts be there of the Lords prayer?

Ans. Two parts; first of those which concerne Gods glory, secondly of things concerning our selues.

Quest. Which be those that concerne God?

Ans. The Preface, and the thrée first Petitions, saying, Our Father which art in Heauen, hallowed by the name, thy kingdome come. Thy will be done. &c.

Concluding with Kingdome, Power, and Glory.

Quest. What vnderstand you by the Preface, Our Father which art in Heauen?

Ans. That Iehouah our God, Iehouah the Father, Sonne, and holy Ghost, is one, and become our Father by the death and mediation of Christ his Son, in whose name, if wée approach vnto him with faith and reuerence, he will make manifest that he is both willing and able to heare and helpe vs.

Quest. What more?

Ans. That being in Heauen, hée requi∣reth of vs heauenly mindes and affecti∣ons, to worship him in spirit and truth, without any superstition, of represen∣tation, or wil-worship according to car∣nal reason, as it is forbidden in the first and second Commandements of the first Table.

Quest. What vnderstand you by the first Petition, Hallowed be thy name?

Ans. That the glorious names and attributes of God; his wisedome, power, word, mercy, iustice, and workes, may be honored and sanctified of vs in our thoughts, words and workes, which is the end of our creation and redemption: the contrary whereof is forbidden in the

third commandement of the first Table: thou shalt not take the name of thy God in vaine.

2 Q. What by the second, Thy kingdome come?

A. That righteousnes, peace, and ioy in the holy Ghost, may be increased in vs by the regiment of his Word and Spirit, that Christ may raigne and dwell in our hearts by faith driuing out all aduersarie power of sinne and darknes, that being his obedi∣ent subiects in the kingdome of grace, we may speed••ly be fitted and suted with all his Elect in the kingdome of glory.

3 Q. What by the third, Thy will be done?

A. That God would subdue in vs by his grace, all things repugnant to his word & will; that with all holy desire, diligence and integrity (resembling his holy angels in heauen) we may do his will, as in his word he hath manifested it vnto vs, being the perfect rule of faith and obedience: for the honor and hollowing of his name, the po∣wer, increase, and accomplishment of his kingdome, are vnited to the doing of his will according to his word.

Q. By this wee may see that these three Petitions answere to the foure first Com∣mandements

of the first Table,

A. Yea, for in them we learne our duty to God, as concerning his worship, faith, feare and loue, which in this wee pray fer grace to practise.

4 Q. What vnderstand you by the second parts of this prayer, and namely the fourth Petition, Giue vs this day our dayly bread?

A. That God would vouchsafe to giue vs all such things as are needfull for vs, and the place where we liue, that we may liue without destresse of minde and pride of hart, that honoring our Superiours and Parents, we may liue a peaceable life in all godlynes and honesty, abandoning all excessiue care for earthly things, being con∣tent with sufficient, obtained by our law∣full labors; that so it may go well with vs as it is promised in the first Commaunde∣ment of the second Table, where it is said, Honor thy father and thy mother, that it may go well with thee.

5 Q. What by the fifth Petition in the se∣cond part of this prayer; Forgiue vs our tres∣passes, as we forgiue them that trespasse against vs?

A. That confession of s••nnes must goe before remission, because they seperate vs

from God▪ till they haue found free pardo•• through faith in the merits of Christ the Mediator of the new Couenant, who hath made reconciliation for sinne, and purcha∣sed euerlasting righteousnes: therefore for his sake we desire mercy for our sinnes, and the punishments due to bee remoued, be∣cause they are pledges of Gods fauour, de∣claring himselfe to be our God and Father.

Q. Why is this reason added, As wee do forgiue others that trespasse against vs?

A. Lest we should presume to aske for∣giuenes of God, except we be free from ha∣tred and malice, as it is said, If yee forgiue o∣thers, God will forgiue you: therefore we pray that God who is infinite in mercies, would pardon vs, for we being▪ wretched sinners, hauing not one drop of grace, yet through his grace are willing to forgiue others that offend vs: For if it be the glory of a man to passe by infirmities, much more of God.

Q. What learne you by the last Petition, And leade vs not into temptation?

A. In the former Petition wee desired pardon for sinnes past, and heere wee pray for grace to resist sin in time to come, that we may be supported and preserued in that state of grace, whereunto wée are restored

••nd called by Christ. Therefore wée pray ••hat we be not hardned with the deceitful∣••es of sinne, nor lead into ouer-hard tri∣••ls, against which our weakenes is not a∣ble to resist. but that with the temptation ••he would giue the issue, for his glory, and our good.

Q. What vnderstand you by this, But de∣liuer vs from euill?

A. That is from the diuell the author of al ••uill, for we pray not simplie against temp∣tation but against the euill of temptation, that wee may haue grace and strength to tread Sathan, sinne, & all aduersarie power opposing it selfe to our saluation vnder feet, through our Lord Iesus, the séed of the woman, who hath already triumphed ouer them, and by whome wée hope and assure our selues we shall be perfect in his hea∣uenly kingdome.

Q. What vnderstand you by the conclu∣sion, For thine is the Kingdome, the Power and Glory for euer and euer.

A. The summe of all contained in the rest: because he is the immortall King inui∣sible and Almighty, God only wise; wee pray to serue him as his subiects in this life (for the soueraignty of heauen & earth

is his) and to bee preserued by his powe•• through faith vnto the life to come, for he is all sufficient to performe: that hée would glorifie his great name by all these means▪ for all glory, honor, and praise is due t•• him in Christ Iesus for euermore.

Q. Then the beginning and end of ou•• prayers ought to be the praise and glorie o•• God?

A. Yes, for he is not worthy to receiu•• new benefits, who will not be thankefull for former receiued.

Q. Why conclude you with Amen?

A. To shew our earnest desire and assu∣red hope to obtaine our lawfull request•• through Christ the faithfull and true wi••¦nes, in whom all the promises of God a•• yea & Amen.

Q. Then belike these three last Petition•• answere to the sixe last precepts of the te•• Commandements of the second Table of the Law.

A. Yea verily, for in them we learn ou•• dutie towards men: and héere we pray fo•• grace to practise them that wée may liue •• peaceable life in all godlines and honesti•• till wée bée fitted and ready for the life •• come in heauen.

Q. Are we sure to be heard, praying ac∣cording to these rules?

A. Yes certainly, as the Scriptures of God do abundantly teach vs.

Q. But wee see God doth not alwayes graunt the Petitions of his children.

A. That is, because God hath otherwise first decréed with him self; secondly because they aske amisse; thirdly because in his profound wisdome he séeth it not good for them, fourthly because he trieth their faith, loue, patience, and constancie.

Q. Tell me now what is a Sacrament?

A. A seale of that righteousnes which is giuen by faith in y^e merits of Christ Iesus.

Q. How many seales or Sacraments of that kinde hath God left vnto his Church?

A. But two Sacraments of the new Couenant, as there were but two in the old, figuring righteousnes giuen by faith.

and forsake sinne, Satan, the world and all the workes of the flesh, and to liue in holines and righteousnes according to the Spirit, beginning his new birth and life in God, to die to sinne, and rise vp vnto righteousnes of conuersation.

Q. Why are Infants baptised, which can make no confession of faith & repentance?

A. Because they are the séed of the faith∣full, and within the outward couenant, vn∣to whom belong the promises of grace: and of such is the kingdome of heauen, though not of all; but wée must leaue the hidden things to God, the reuealed are for vs and our children to do them.
