Q. 3. But doth not the Scripture say in 1 Cor. 8.5. That there are Gods many, and Lords many?
A. Yes, there are many in Title, and many in opinion; but one only in Truth. Jer. 10.10. But the Lord is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting King.
Q. 4. Why is he called the true God?
A. To distinguish him from the Idols and false Gods of the Heathens. 1 Thes. 1.9. How ye turned to God from Idols, to serve the living and true God. Acts 14.15. We preach unto you, that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein.
