Q. 1. What mean you by the Word?
A. By the Word is meant the Word of God, consigned to writing in the Books of the Old and New Testament, which though it be ministered by men, yet it is no other than the very Word of God, and as such to be received, 1 Thess. 2.13. For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because when ye received the word of God, which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men: but (as it is in truth) the word of God, &c.
