To the Reader
WHO have occasion to make use of this Book, may please to observe, that the accute; or, long accent thus noted (á) signifies that the sillable over which it is placed is to be pronounced long; the rest of the words be short, till the like, or a circumflex do regulate the sillables following. Words of two sillables most frequently be not accented at all, being commonly of equal measure, and hardly, mispronou [...]ced. Also, s [...]dry times the prepositions in, with, for, from, [...]c: be set after the Substantives in the Indian [...]ed before them in the English, that so no harshness (this caution remembred) may sound in either.
[...]ewise sometime a phrase is used in the Indian, which word for word can hardly be rendred in the English; but then, and ever, care is had that in every sentence, and within the limits of every stop, the Indian doth truely answer the English, The Lord pardon, accept, and give [...], that this may be an help towards the sp [...]tual good of Indian soules.

Question.
How prove you that there is a God?
Answer.
From the universal and constant agreement of all nations. and persons in the world who are rot void of right reason and humanity.
For the things which are grounded upon particular mens fancies and opinions are not acknowledged of all men, and are often ch [...]nged but this rotion that [Page 6]there is a God is common to all men, nor is it changed by the changes of times; therefore it must arise from some light which is common to all men, and that light must be either from tradition which hath fl [...]wed from the first p [...]repts or mankind to all their posterity from age to age who would not lye to their ch ld [...]n in a m tter of so great importance; or from an inward light implanted in the minds of all men by himself. And that such a light is in every m [...]n naturally appe [...]eth by the f [...]ares that [Page 7]are in all men when they have done y t which they know to be evill, though no man knoweth and upon extraordinary accidents, as Thun [...]er [...] liarthquakes▪ sights in the Aire, blasing Starre &c: which shewes that they know thereis a power, above the creatures, though they see him not. who will punish sinn, and can do it when he will. And this is Secondly from the begining of all▪ things that have a dependent being For the things which had a begining could not be cause of their own being for [...] that which is not cannot act, nor could any thing [Page 8]bee before it was therefore it must have its begining from some other cause which is without begining, and therefore the first being and efficient cause of all other beings.
There was a first man, and a first woman and a first in every kind of living creatures but that first man and woman, those first of all kinds living creatures could not make themselves therefore there was a first being which ab [...]o [...]ute and in dependent and rests upon nothing that was before them ad, and [Page 9]made them all, and upon whom all other beings depen [...]. And this is
How can you know that there is a God, seeing you never saw him, nor can see him?
I know I have a reasonable soul, though I never saw it. nor can see it. The soul were not a spirituall substance if it could be seen with bodily eyes, and so no soul in like manner were not a Spirit if he could be seen with bodily eyes and so no God.
But no man can fully know Gods nature therefore no God?
It followeth not, for [Page 10]an infer our nature cannot fully; understand the things of; an higher and more excellent nature, then, it self. Be [...] cannot understand what man is, much less how to plant and govern Common-wea [...]es, or to become earned o [...] sayl over the Seas &c: For these things exceed their capacities in l ke manner man seeing himself to be made of a more noble nature [...]en beasts, and that not of him self: must needs inferr that he who made him superiour to beasts he modes above man. then man is above beasts and therefore that y e full, knowledg of his [Page 11]nature excceeds mans capacity.
Are there many Gods? or is there but one true God?
There are not many Gods, there is only one true God.
How do you prove that that there is but one true God?
Because the reason why singular things of the same kind [...]re multiplied is not to be found in the nature of for the reason why such ke things are multiplied is from the fruitfulness of their causes: but hath no cause of his being but [...]is of hi [...]se f therefore he is one.
Because singular things of the same kind when they are multiplyed, are differenced among them selves by their singular propertyes; but there cannot be found another God differenced from this by any such like propertyes.
Because its proper to God to do whatsoever he willeth; if there were many Gods they might will contrary things, and one might be hindred by another, [...]o y he could not do what he would▪ which can not stand with the Omnipotency and nature of God.
But may there not be many Gods: yet s [...] that one as the cheifest and greatest of all?
No, because the first being must be absolutely Supream because he depeudeth upon nothing, he rests not upon any person but is alsufficient to him self and to all things; and [...]ll things depend upon him that which is not absolutely cheifest and above all cannot be God.
Because the Essentiall propertyes of God are such as cannot be given to any more then one.
What are these Properties which are peculiar to God alone
There are many I shall instance in three which include the rest.
That all perfections are [Page 14]in him originally, and eminently as in the first cause, from which heaven and earth and all things in them receive whatsoever good they haue that all perrection are in infin [...] the reason why the be ng and goodness of all creatures is limitted, is because the cause whereby they exist hath cō [...]ic [...]ted so much to them an [...] no more, and hath made them capable of so much and no more but receiveth not any thing from [...]nother but is a Spirit living in him self, or of himself therefore God is not limmitted his strength is Infinite whatsoever he willeth he doeth in heaven & [Page 15]earth his Knowledg is Infinite he knoweth all things; he heareth all the words, and he seeth all the works of all men in all the world his Goodness is Infinite he is [...]ce [...]i [...]y good, he go [...]s beyond all in goodness he doeth good towards all creatures, the presence of God is infinite, he is every where in all the world f [...]lling all places and goes not from p [...]e to place, as doth the creatures his life is Infinite, he is Eternal, without begining and without end.
That the true God is perfectly blessed in himself, A [...]sufficient of himself, he needs not supply from an other For,
He knows all things at once and together in all the world, without discourse by the Infiniteness of his Essence.
He willeth most freely whatsoever is good and so perfectly that whatsoever he willeth is good so f [...]tr as he willeth it, and because he willeth it, For is simply and Infinitely good.
How do you prove that heaven and earth, and all things in them have the original of their being from
This followeth from what was said before, for we have proved that God hath his being of himself, and is but one therefore all [Page 17]other things have either in them selves, or in their causes their being from him.
The common understanding of men doth evince this, if we consider any of the creatures particu [...]y the framing of mans body within and without how all the parts of mans body, yea the least have their several uses, and are fitted to those uses, by no study or industry of their parents, yet with such wisdom that the more learned and the more wise men are the more they admire it. No wise man can imagine that stones and tîmber grew into an house, [Page 18]by chance, or of themselves, but that some skilfull artificer fitted, placed, and joyned them together; so, when we see heaven and earth so framed and among all creatures, one thing fitted to another and all things to their proper uses, we cannot but conclude that there is a most wise maker of the world. and all things in the worlds and this can be no other but the true God.
But many evills are done in the world, and are in mens hearts is the author or the cause of these evills?
No for is of himself perfectly good, though the power of acting be of yet this abuse of that power to ct sinfully is of themselves. God made the Angels and men with a liberty of acting which was not vi [...]ious yet it might by its own power produce something that is vicious, it was from the [...]buse of their free will that fallen angels now devills and and and in them all mankind sinned.
Though be not the cause of sinn, yet are there not two active beginnings, the one good; and the author of all good; [Page 20]the ether evill the author and cause of evill.
That cannot be, for if there were two such contrary acting beginning they would alwayes be fightings one against another whence destruction would follow.
Neither is any thing so evill as is of himself good for evill is a kind of defect which can not be, but in a thing exîtlent, and to exist is some good.
The true hath all streg [...]th and the sures; the gods of the heathen are weak and poor He fills heaven and earth, and is every where in all the world.
[Page 21]If, there be other gods where are they
Seing made heaven and earth, and all things in them, does He now leave them and no more look after them as a carpenter doth leave an house he hath built?
No, for a carpenter looks nor after the house he hath built, not for him self, otherwise, if he made it for himself, continually he doth look after it. So made all things not for an other but for himself, and therefore doth preserve them and govern them for the ends wherefore he made them and to which he appointed them and according to y e several natures he hath given them; Some by Reason as men others by [...]h i [...] natural [...] [Page 22]as Sensitive cratures: others by their natural pro pertyes, as the fire asscends and water descends.
How do you prove that Gods proevid [...]ce doth▪ govern all the world▪
By the motion of things against their proper nature for the good of the universe as we see fire will de [...]cend and water ascend 01 contr ry to their natures to prevent emptiness for the good of the universe.
By the na [...]ural care which not o ly men indued w t understanding, but al o be [...]sts and fowles th [...] wa [...]lon ha e o [...] [Page 23]their young: which being a part of goodness must he acknowledged to be of God em [...]nently towards all his creatures in the world: and the rather because he is present every where and knowes all things, and can easily order them to the ends wherefore he made them.
ordereth the Sun, moon and starrs and clouds of heaven for the benefit of the creatures on earth, principally of man.
Because Common-weales are kept, saved, destroyed and changed by the will of God
Because all men in great difficulties, distresses and [Page 24]exigents naturally do cry to God for help which teacheth us that the knowledg of Gods providence towards all persons, and things upon the earth is implanted in the natural hearts of all men.
How do you prove that all singular things are governed by Gods Povidence?
Because singular things are ordered and directed to those ends whereto God made them.
Because God is present in the whole world, and his Wisdom and Strength are Infinite.
Because gener [...]l [...]s [...]o subsist in lingu [...]s: and there [...]e if [Page 25]singulars were not preserved by Gods providence the generalls would perish with them.
If it be so; how then comes it to pass that Sin doth so abound in in the world?
Even the sinns that abound in the world do manifest that Gods providence doth govern all things on earth. Because thereby the effects of finne are kept under limmited restrained and hindered least they should proceed so farr as otherwise they would to the overthrow of Common-weales and that one man should not live by another.
Because, over-rulein the effects of mans sinns [Page 26]which he permitteth to good ends either to Punish one wicked-man by another, or to correct his own people when they wander from his righteous Rules, or to try the faith patience and constanoy of believers eminent in grace.
Because though permitts wicked men to prosper in this world for a time; yet at last when they dy Gods punishing will shall [...]e done upon them who would not Gods Commanding wi [...]l but were disobedient thereunto
Because thus God drawes men to look for the great Judgment before it come after this life wherein will render to all men after their workes in this world▪
How do you prove that the soules of men live when their bodyes be dead, and that soul and body shall be ioyned together to appear before in that Iudgment?
By the power of the natural conscience of all men comforting them when they do well. and accusing Judging and tormenting them when they do evill, especially near their death, which sh [...]wes that they expect a Judgment to come.
By the natural desire of immortalitie which is in all men.
By the natural motions and expectations, that Indians have of living in an other country to the southward after they have lived in this: we see treas in winter loose thir beauty and in the spring live again.
How doth govern man?
By giving and prescribing a law to him, and by ordering that as men do receive that law they that live for ever in Gods love; or as they reject that [...]w they that [...]raal [...]y [...] [Page 29]misery its meet that a reaaonable creature made after the Image of should be so governed in way to euerlasting life.
What Law did prescribe to men? and how did he prescri [...]e it to him?
The law prescribed was that men should live after Gods revealed will revealed to men that his will of old partly inwardly, by writing his law in mans heart; partly outwardly by declaring what he wuleth that man should do, and avoyd, confirming that law [Page 30]to man by promises and threatnings and binding man to obedience by a solemn covenant.
Why did reveale his mind and will to men by such like outward meanes seeing he governs other creatures after another manner.
Because man in his life understands by his senses; as by seeing and hearing, therefore revealeth his will to men outwardly, partly by spe [...]king to his eares by an audible voyce, that men may hear and understand partly by caesing his will to be writt [...]n in [Page 31]a book, that man may see, read and understand what willeth that he know and do that he may be blessed.
Was the will of made known to man at all times by being written in a book?
It was alwayes necessary that the will of should be made known to man by a word, for would never ac [...]ept any worship or service from man, but what was according to his word, which word is the only Rule of the Obedience of men towards God but this word was not written at a [...] times for [Page 32]from to revealed his will by visions dreames, and Oracles to few and spread it from them to many the father teaching his sonn, and one making known to and teaching another the will o [...] when the Church was shut up in few families.
Why was the word of afterwards written in a book?
When the Church was enlarged and began to spread it self into a greater compass, and also errours in Religion increased, and Gods [Page 33]people conversed with Ido [...] l [...]ter [...] they were more subject to be misled then it was necessary that Gods word should be written in a book.
1. To prevent forgetfullness.
2 To avoid errours and preserve the Trueth of from corruption in all ages there being but one true and righteous Rule whereby to judg the trueth.
3 To settle all men in this point that in whom we believe is that Saviour. in whom all the promises and Prophesies of the ol [...]l Testament were fulfilled which is [Page 34]known by comparing with them what is written of him, in the new Testament and therefore that there is not another [...]me else given under heaven wher by w [...] may be saved.
What is that book wherin these things are written?
It is that book called Gods Book Gods word, Gods Trueth, which conteineth the Law, written by and the Prophets. And the new Testament in which wee have a full and manifest discovery of the mystery of
How do you prove that this Book conteineth [Page 35]the word of

Because all men in all the world are required to worship according to this his word. The greatest princes of this world have their lipits hath none.
Gods word was given long agee, How then doth it concern [...] th [...]se who now live in these dayes?
Gods word doth hold forth his eternal and unchangeable. Will, concerning all things necessary to be believed, and done by all who would [...]ee sayed in all Ages; and therefore was written forius as well as for those who Lived long agoe all being children of he [Page 37]same first parents and made of one blood all nations of men of the earth and of this rib, and so one man [...]e [...]rt another, and that ma [...] [...]n [...]ther, and that man anothers; and one generation begat another, so all men are as branches of the Root all men are of the same nature: all are like in theire bodies theire heads, eares, eyes, mouth, and tongue.
Gods word was given to other nations, how then doth it concern the Indians.
Gods word was first given to the Jews onely. till the comeing of suffered all Nations to walk in their own [Page]wayes but when came in mans n [...]ture hee s [...]nt his word to all Nations of the [...] wor [...] according to the prophesies of and of the Gentii s which his word they receive some sooner so [...] ter then [...]er

No, in noe wise. yea this would quickly incre se th [...] honour and Riches [...] th [...] S chems By humilitie and the feare of are Riches [Page 39]honour, and life. and this will inlarge the liberty of the indians by freeing them from the bon [...]ge of sin and Sathan.

Wherin then [...]anas mans happiness?
Mans happiness consists in the fruition of his free Love by the chief desireable good, that any can seek for or find.

Because this Love is from everlasting and to everlasting it [...]ea [...]th not. Most free of all Loves its the greatest most [...]tisfying.
