I believe that…

I believe that the great end why God committed the Scriptures to writing, was, that we might be instructed [directed] to Christ, taught how to believe, encouraged to patience and hope for that grace that is to be brought to us at the revelation of Jesus Christ; also that we might understand what sin is, and how to avoid its commission. (Ps. 119:105)
I believe that they [the Scriptures] cannot be broken, but will certainly be fulfilled in all the prophecies, threatenings and promises, either to the salvation or damnation of men.
I believe Jesus Christ, by the  Word of the Sriptures, will judge all men at the day of doom (II Cor.5:10; Rev 20:11-15).
I believe that this God made  the world and all things that are therein… When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people, according to the number of the children of Israel.
I believe that magistracy [civil government] is God's ordinance, which he has appointed for the government of the whole world, and that it is a judgment of God to be without those ministers which he has ordained to put wickedness to shame (Rom. 13:1-7; 1 Pet, 2:13-17)…Many are the mercies we receive by a well-qualified magistrate; and if any shall  at any time be otherwise inclined, let us show our Christianity, in patient suffering for well doing what it shall please God to inflict by them.
