PROFESSION
OF
FAITH.
Vou
believe, in one
eternal, omnipresent God,
the
Father, the
^011 and
the
Holy Ghost,
the
cre.it()r and
upholder of
all
things,
infinitely and unchangeably powerful, wise and
holy, whose
pur-
poses and providence extend
to
all
events, and
wlio
exercises a
righteous moral government over all
his
intelligent creatures, re-
'l^dring them, under pain of his
eternal
displeasure,
to
love him
^^Jpre:nely, and to love each otfier as themselves.
Vou behove,
th;it man was
ori^rinilly upright;
that our
first pa-
rents
freely
sinned and
fell; and
that
all
their descendants
are
smners, and,
till renewed by the grace and Spirit of God, are with,
out holiness, and under tiie condemnation of God's law.
