In this Article I profess to be∣lieve, That when Christ was made of the Seed of David according to the Flesh, he was made in all things like to my self, excepting Sin: For that could affect neither his Humane Soul nor Body, be∣cause
in both he was most Holy, as being conceived only by the Operation of the Holy Ghost, and born of a spotless Virgin. For Christ, that he might be our Kins∣man, and capable to redeem us, by paying our Debts in the same Humane Nature in which they were contracted, it was necessa∣sary he should be the Seed of the Woman. And that he might plainly appear to be that Seed of the Woman which was promised, it was likewise necessary he should be born of a Virgin, who was of the Lineage and House of David. All which I believe from God's Word was accomplished in the Blessed Mother of Christ.
