1The natural notion of this principle, There is a God. Principles are true, because they are divine wisdom, and because the contrary or opposite thereto being granted, nature is thereby destroyed. But, That there is a God, is a principle; First, Because every one hath private experience hereof in himself. Secondly, All wise men confess it. Thirdly, All nations consent in it: for no nation is so barbarous, but that it maintaineth some religion, and contendeth and striveth for the advancement thereof, and supposeth that there is some God:2 That which may be known of God is manifest in them (that is, in the minds of men,) for God hath showed it unto them.
