Q. 15. What's the first act of Faith due to the Word?
A. The assenting act of Faith is required to the Word read or preached, whereby we acknowledge it to be of Divine Authority, 2 Tim. 3.16. And without controversy, great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. 2 Pet. 1.21. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
