Article 14
As the doctrine of divine election by the most wise counsel of God was
declared by the prophets, by Christ Himself, and by the apostles, and is
clearly revealed in the Scriptures both of the Old and the New Testament, so it
is still to be published in due time and place in the Church of God, for which
it was peculiarly designed, provided it be done with reverence, in the spirit
of discretion and piety, for the glory of Gods most holy Name, and for
enlivening and comforting His people, without vainly attempting to investigate
the secret ways of the Most High (Acts
20:27; Rom. 11:33, 34; 12:3;
Heb. 6:17,
18).
