It makes sense to put articles related to the Godhead first. They come down on the western side of the filioque like Anglicans do, emphasizing the Athanasian Creed as Anglicans do. The part about the Prince’s role in calling councils is bizaar, IMO in light of rge American revolution unless ‘prince’ refers to something I am not familiar with like a church official.

Romans 12 tells us the one gifted to prophesy should prophesy according to the proportion of faith, teach should teach, the one gifted to exhort should teach. Paul wrote ‘Every one of you hath a…doctrine. Let all thing be done unto edifying.’

Lest I’m misguided are there any articles of salvation?
