The Regents and Masters of Schools, which serve in our Academies, especially Professors of Divinity, be∣ing called to teach their Scholars the same Truths, as those Ministers are oblig'd to Preach to their Congre∣gations, and to have them live under the Law of the same Discipline; it is just, they should, as well as the Ministers, sign our Confession of Faith, and our Disci∣pline,
to the end their Lessons may be always con∣formable to the former, and their Actions to the latter; as well in regard of themselves, as of those which de∣pend on their Conduct. I will not here repeat what I have said on the 9th Article of the 1st Chapter, and which may conveniently be applied to that we now Ex∣amine; it shall suffice to add, that what we expect of our Regents, is in substance the same thing as the Protestations made by Doctors in Universities, amongst the Latins, Not to say nor write any thing contrary to the Holy Scriptures, and the Decrees of Coun∣cils.
