Short questions and answeares , contayning the Summe of Christian Religion .

Deut. 6.6 .

6. These wordes , which I commaund thee this day , shal be in thy heart :

7. And thou shalt rehearse them continually vnto thy children , and shalt talke of them , when thou tariest in thy house , and as thou walkest by the way , and when thou lyest downe , and when thou risest vp .

LONDON . Printed by Iohn Dawson . 1623.

These are the orders which I haue seene obserued in a Christian Gentlemans house , to the profit of his ho●sholde , example of others , comfort of Gods chil●●en , and honour of God .

WHile they had a minister the whole household met at the Church twise euery Sabbath ; and once euery weeke day : but since the restraint of their minister , they meete euery morning in the week day in the parlour , where their master kneeleth downe with them , and prayeth vsing these prapers following .

The confession of shines , with morning prayer for priuat housholders , for men before their labour , for the Church , the Realme , the Queene , and Magistrates , the Lordes prayer , and confession of faith , all which prayers are in the booke of common prayer .

If he be from home , or sicke then doth his Steward , or some such like of them say those prayers .

After prayers the houshold departeth either whither necessitie of their offices call them , or whither delight in honest ●xercises for recreation doth cary them .

Before prayer meditate of these places .

They shall call vpon me , Pron. 1.28 . but I will not answere : they shall seeke me early , but they shall not finde me .

29 Be

them to the former excesse of riot , say you , and performe with Iosua . 35.17 . We and our housholds wil serue the Lorde . And you , O Lad●es ; mistresses & dames , say euery one of you with Hester , I and my maides wil do the like . Hester . 4.16 . And howsoeuer the world condemne you , the Lord wil reueale himselfe vnto you , power his blessings of knowledge , of peace , of religion , of good rulers , and will continue the same vnto the remnant of our children & posteritie , which shall come after vs , which he graunt for his Christes sake .
