(1) The answers to the first 6 questions of the Westminster Shorter Catechism we discover: Man’s CHIEF END is to glorify God. The Word of God, which is contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments is the ONLY RULE to direct us how we may glorify and enjoy Him. The Scriptures principally teach, what man is to BELIEVE concerning God, and what DUTY God requires of man. God is a Spirit, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable, in His being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness, and truth. There is but ONE GOD ONLY, the living and true God. There are THREE PERSONS in the Godhead: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, and these three are one God, the same in substance, equal in power and glory.
(2) What does exegete mean? It signifies to make known, reveal, rehearse, declare, to draw out in narrative, to recount, tell, to unfold in teaching, used in Greek writing of the INTERPRETATION of things sacred and divine. In other words, the Son has DECLARED God the Father, REVEALED Him, FULLY EXPLAINED Him, INTERPRETED Him, showing people WHO God really is.
