Article I: Of
God.
1] The First
Article of our Confession our adversaries approve, in which
we declare that we believe and teach that there is one divine
essence, undivided, etc., and yet, that there are three distinct
persons, of the same divine essence, and coeternal, Father,
Son, and Holy Ghost. 2] This article we have always taught
and defended, and we believe that it has, in Holy Scripture,
sure and firm testimonies that cannot be overthrown. And we
constantly affirm that those thinking otherwise are outside
of the Church of Christ. and are idolaters, and insult God.
