A. The light of nature in man and the works of God plainly declare there is a God (Rom. 1:18-20; Ps. 19:1-3; Acts 17:24); but his word and Spirit only do it fully and effectually for the salvation of sinners (1 Cor. 2:10; 2 Tim. 3:14-17).
Q. 3. Ought every one to believe there is a God?
A. Everyone ought to believe there is a God (Heb. 6:4-6); and it is their great sin and folly who do not (Ps. 14:1).

A. Man’s chief end is to glorify God, (Ps. 86:9; Isa. 60:21; Rom. 11:36; I Cor. 6:20; 10:31; Rev. 4:11) and to enjoy him for ever (Ps. 16:5-11; 144:15; Isa. 12:2; Luke 2:10; Phil. 4:4; Rev. 21:3-4).
Q.1 – Who is the first and chiefest being?
