For what purpose I published this confession with my observations upon it: for the very same cause, at this time have I gathered together these positions concerning sundry matters in question, which were handled partly under Frederick the third of godly memory at Heidelberg, partly under my favourable Lord John Casimir, elector of this school, here at Newstade, against divers heresies: and being all brought together, I thought good to have them printed with my confession: thereby, that all posterity might evidently see, that I never consented to any of these heresies, which in these days of ours have been fetched again from the depth of hell: and this, to Gods glory, the edification of the church, and the salvation of many, through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
