A petition for peace with the reformation of the liturgy, as it was presented…

A true belief of the Articles of the Christian Faith, concerning the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; the Person, Offices, Works, and Sufferings, and Benefits of Christ. 2. The sense of our sinful and undone condition, as in our selves, and of our need of Christ: so as humbly to loath our selves for our transgressions: with the sense of our present weaknesses to be strengthened, and sins to be forgiven. 3. A true desire after Christ for pardon, and spiritual Nourishment and Salvation. 4. A thankful sense of the Wonderful Love of God, declared in our Redemption, and in the present offers of Christ, and Life. 5. The exercise of holy love and joy in the sense of this unspeakable Love, (if these two be not felt before we come, yet in, and after the Sacrament) we must strive to exercise them. 6. A love to one another and forgiving wrongs to one another, with a desire after the Communion of Saints. 7. The giving up our selves in Covenant to God, with resolution of renewed Obedience. 8. A patient hope for the coming of Christ himself, and of the Everlasting Kingdom where we shall be perfectly united in him, and glorified with him. Those only are to be invited to the Lords Table, and to come, that truly repent and believe, and unfeignedly consent to the terms of the Covenant (though all are not to be invited thus to believe and repent, and so to come) But those are to be admitted, by the Pastors, if they come, who, having the use of reason to understand what they do, and examine themselves, have made a Personal Profession of Faith, Repentance and Obedience; and are Members ⟨p. 49⟩of the Church, and not justly for Heresy, or scandalous sin removed from its present Communion. The benefit of the Sacrament is not to be judged of only by present Experience and Feeling, but by Faith. God having appointed us to use it, and promised his Blessing, we may and must believe, that he will make good his Promise, and what ever we feel at present, that we sincerely wait not on him in vain.
