1. The Light of Nature shews that there is a God, who hath Lordship and Sovereignty over all; is Just, Good, and doth good unto all; and is therefore to be feared, loved, praised, called upon, trusted in, and served, with all the Heart, and all the Soul, and with all the Might. But the acceptable way of worshipping the true God, isa instituted by himself, and so limited by his own revealed Will, that he may not be worshipped according to the Imaginations and Devices of Men, or the Suggestions of Satan, under any visible Representations, orb any other way, not prescribed in the Holy Scriptures.c
