1. _In the Three Articles is contained all that we believe and confess
regarding God and His saving works for us. We call them also the
Apostles' Creed. Our Creed is taken from Scripture._
2. _There are two chief doctrines in the Bible, the Law and the Gospel.
Both are God's Word. The Law tells us how, according to the will of God,
we ought to be and what we must do and not do. It also tells us that God
will punish us because we have not fulfilled, His commandments._
3. _The Gospel brings to us the glad tidings of the grace and love of
God. It tells us what God in His grace has done and will do to save us
from the punishment of the Law, from sin and hell._
