or creed and when ye have received it write it in your heart and be daily saying it to yourselves before ye sleep before ye go forth arm you with your creed the creed no man writes so it may be able to be read but for rehearsal of it lest haply forgetfulness obliterate what care hath delivered let your memory be your record roll what ye are about to hear that are ye to believe and what ye shall have believed that are
about to give back with your tongue for the apostle says with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with
the mouth confession is made unto salvation for this is the creed which ye are to rehearse and to repeat in answer these words which ye have heard are in the divine scriptures scattered up and down but thence gathered and reduced into one that the memory of slow persons might not be distressed that every person may be able to say able to hold what he believes for have ye now merely heard that god is almighty but ye begin to have him for your father when ye have been born by the church as your mother of this then ye have now
received have meditated and having meditated have held that ye should say i believe in god the father almighty
god is almighty and yet though almighty he cannot die cannot be deceived cannot lie and as the apostle says cannot deny himself how many things that he cannot do and yet is almighty yea therefore is almighty because he cannot do these things for if he could die he were not almighty if to lie if to be deceived if to do unjustly were possible for him he were not almighty because if this were in him he should not be worthy to be almighty to our almighty father it is quite impossible to sin he does whatsoever
he will that is omnipotence he does whatsoever he rightly will whatsoever he justly will but whatsoever is evil to do he wills not there is no resisting one who is almighty that he should not do what he will it was he who made heaven and earth the sea and all that is in them invisible and visible invisible such as are in heaven thrones dominions principalities
powers archangels angels all if we shall live aright our fellow-citizens he made in
heaven the things visible the sun the moon the stars with its terrestrial animals he adorned the earth filled the air with things that fly the land with them that walk and creep the sea with them that swim all he filled with their own proper creatures he made also man after his own image and likeness in the mind for in that is the image of god this is the reason why the mind cannot be comprehended even by itself because in it it is the image of god to this end we were made that over the other creatures we should bear rule but through sin in the first man we fell and all are come into an inheritance of death we were brought low became mortal were filled with fears with errors this by desert of sin with which desert and guilt is every man born this is the reason why as ye have seen to-day as ye know even little children undergo exsufflation exorcism to drive away from them the power of the devil their enemy which deceived man that it might possess mankind It is not then the creature of God that in infants undergoes exorcism or exultation, but he under whom are all that are born with sin, for he is the first of sinners.
And for this cause, by reason of one who fell and brought all into death, there was sent one without sin, who should bring unto life by delivering them from sin all that believe on him.
For this reason we believe also in his Son, that is to say, God the Father Almighty's, his only Son, our Lord.
When thou hearest of the
only Son of God, acknowledge him God.
For it could not be that God's only Son should not be God.
What he is, the same did he beget,
though he is not that person whom he begot.
If he be truly Son, he is that which the Father is.
If he be not that which the Father is, he is not truly Son.
observe mortal and earthly creatures what each is that it engendereth man begets not an ox sheep begets not dog nor dog sheep whatever it be that begetteth that which it is it begetteth hold ye therefore boldly firmly faithfully that the begotten of god the father is what himself is almighty these mortal creatures engender by corruption Does God so beget? He that is begotten, mortal, generates that which himself is.
The immortal generates what he is.
Corruptible begets corruptible.
Incorruptible begets incorruptible.
The corruptible begets corruptibly.
Incorruptible incorruptibly.
