2. That He might make us the children of God.

3. And exalt us to everlasting life.

4. And to the end we should always remember the exceeding great love of our Master, and only Saviour Jesus Christ thus dying for us, and the innumerable benefits which, by His precious blood-shedding He hath obtained to us.

He hath instituted and ordained holy mysteries, as pledges of His love, and for a continual remembrance of His death, to our great and endless comfort.'

2. The Doxology, Acclamation, or Hymn.

"To Him therefore with the Father, and the Holy Ghost, let us give as we are most bounden, continual thanks; submitting ourselves to His holy will and pleasure, and studying to serve Him in truth, holiness, and righteousness, all the days of our life. Amen.'

The Postscript.

Courteous reader,-What is in this explanation of the Creed succinctly and positively delivered, is more fully and amply expounded by the author in a large book of sermons extant upon every article, for which he hath chosen apt texts. If therefore any man desire a more ample information about those mysteries, he may, if he please, peruse that book.
