Three; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are perfectly alike in character, and equal in greatness.

Matt. 28:19. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.


THE FIRST ARTICLE.

CONCERNING CREATION.

I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.

That is,

I believe that God has made me and all other creatures; that He has given me body and soul, eyes, ears, and all other members, my reason, and all my senses.

I also believe that He preserves all He has made, and that He daily provides me with all I need; giving me clothing and food, home and family, and every good thing.

I further believe that He protects me from all danger, and keeps me from all evil; not because I have deserved it, but because He is a loving and merciful Father.
