one onely: because the body where∣unto Christ was given by his Father to be the Head thereof, alwayes was and is buta 1.1 one; one onely Spirit, whereby all the members of the body have their connexion together with the Head;b 1.2 One onely God, to worship whom and to glorifie him for ever, we are all elected and called;c 1.3 one faith of all believers, one salvation, and one celestiall inheritance: in regard whereof Christ alwayes called his Church one, and his flock one. We do not therefore make the Church which was from the begin∣ning of the world, and before the coming of Christ, to be another from that which now is, and ever shall be even to the end of the world; but we hold it to be one at all times and in all places and of all persons truely joyned unto Christ. And therefore we say that the communion of all Saints is one; and we are perswaded out of holy Scripture that whosoever do make a finall revolt or departure therefrom, they do not belong unto this one body.
