Paragraph 4.2

Of the Westminster Confession of Faith (1646)

After God had made all other creatures, he created man, male and female,⁠1 with reasonable and immortal souls,⁠2 endowed with knowledge, righteousness and true holiness, after his own Image;⁠3 having the Law of God written in their hearts,⁠4 and power to fulfill it:⁠5 and yet, under a possibility of transgressing, being left to the liberty of their own will, which was subject unto change.⁠6 Beside this Law written in their hearts, they received a command, not to eat of the tree of the Knowledge of good and evil, which while they kept, they were happy in their Communion with God,⁠7 and had Dominion over the Creatures.⁠8

Besides the Law written in their Hearts, they received a Command not to eat of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil; which while they kept, they were happy in their Communion with God, and had Dominion⁠1 over the Creatures.⁠2
