API: GET /api/v1/documents/aoc1680/questions/25

What believest thou when thou sayest, I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of Heaven and Earth?

I believe the everlasting Father of our Lord Iesus Christ,a who made of nothing Heaven and Earth, with all that are in them; who likewise upholdethb and governeth the same by his eternal Counsel andc Providence. This God I believe to be my God and Father for Christ sake; and therefore so trust in him, and rely on him, that I make no doubt but he will provide alld things necessary both for my soul and body; and further, whatsoever evils he sendeth on me in this troublesome life, hee will turn them to my safety; seing both he is able to do it, as beingf God Almighty, and willing to do it, as being a bountiful Father.
