Look from Adam, and behold the Protestants faith and religion evidently proved out of the holy Scriptures against all atheists, papists, loose libertines, and carnal gospellers: and that the faith which they profess, hath continued from the beginning of the world, and so is the true and ancient faith. Herein hast thou also a short sum of the whole Bible, and a plain manifestation, that all holy men who have pleased God, have been saved through this Christian faith alone.Looke from Adam, and behold the Protestants faith and religion evidently proued out of the holy Scriptures against all atheists, papists, loose libertines, and carnall gospellers: and that the faith which they professe, hath continued from the beginning of the world, and so is the true and ancient faith.

Thus the Lord Jesus alone is set forth for the only salvation of all the world, so that not only we, but all they which before or after his appearance or incarnation believed on him, were saved. And at the birth of Christ there cometh to the foresaid Angel, the whole heavenly host, which praised God, and said,1 Glory and praise be unto God in the height, and peace upon earth, to men a good will. And by this they teach us what the duty, thankfulness, and knowledge of men is or ought to be in this behalf, that God hath done so great good for man: Namely, how that they ought to praise God,2 to have a sure trust in him, and to be friendly and loving one to another.3 And the fulfilling of the Law, is love from a pure heart, out of a good conscience, and of an undissembled or unfeigned faith, 1 Tim. 1.
