1. We believe that the only Begotten Son of God, the Second Person in the Sacred Trinity,a took to himself a true, real, and fleshly Body,b and reasonable Soul,c being Conceived in the fulness of Time,d by the Holy Ghost,e and Born of the Virgin Mary,f and became very and true Man, like unto us in all things, even in our Infirmities, Sin only excepted;g as appeareth by his Conception, Birth, Life,h and Death. He was of a Woman,i and by the Power of the Holy Ghost, in a Supernatural and Miraculous manner, was Formed of the only Seed, or Substance of the Virgin Mary, in which respect he hath the Name of the Son of Man,j and is the true Son of David, the Fruit of the Virgins Womb,k to that end he might die for Adam.
