the_o glory_n and_o majesty_n of_o the_o son_n and_o holy_a spirit_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o glory_n and_o majesty_n of_o the_o father_n or_o the_o son_n and_o holy_a spirit_n be_v equal_o glorious_a and_o majestical_a with_o god_n the_o father_n therefore_o i_o ask_v whether_o the_o glory_n and_o majesty_n with_o which_o the_o son_n and_o spirit_n be_v glorious_a and_o majestical_a be_v the_o same_o in_o number_n that_o be_v the_o very_a same_o with_o which_o the_o father_n be_v glorious_a and_o majestical_a or_o only_o the_o same_o for_o kind_a and_o degree_n if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o same_o in_o number_n than_o the_o godhead_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n be_v not_o as_o this_o creed_n teach_v all_o one_o and_o they_o be_v not_o one_o and_o the_o same_o god_n for_o two_o infinite_a and_o distinct_a glory_n and_o majesty_n make_v two_o god_n and_o three_o make_v three_o god_n as_o every_o one_o see_v and_o to_o say_v true_a the_o trinitarian_n themselves_o confess_v it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o they_o say_v the_o glory_n and_o majesty_n of_o the_o son_n and_o spirit_n be_v the_o same_o in_o number_n and_o not_o for_o kind_a and_o degree_n only_o with_o that_o of_o the_o father_n but_o than_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o glory_n and_o majesty_n of_o these_o person_n be_v neither_o equal_a nor_o coeternal_a not_o equal_a for_o it_o be_v the_o same_o which_o equal_v never_o be_v nor_o coeternal_a for_o this_o also_o plain_o intimate_v that_o they_o be_v distinct_a for_o how_o coeternal_a if_o not_o distinct_a do_v we_o say_v a_o thing_n be_v coeternal_a or_o contemporary_a with_o itself_o therefore_o this_o article_n also_o do_v impugn_v and_o destroy_v itself_o beside_o if_o the_o glory_n and_o majesty_n of_o the_o three_o person_n be_v numerical_o the_o same_o then_o so_o be_v all_o their_o other_o attribute_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o there_o be_v not_o any_o real_a difference_n between_o the_o three_o person_n and_o they_o be_v only_o three_o several_a name_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o heresy_n of_o the_o sabellian_o in_o the_o next_o place_n this_o creed_n teach_v that_o the_o father_n be_v incomprehensible_a uncreate_v eternal_a almighty_a the_o son_n be_v incomprehensible_a uncreate_v eternal_a almighty_a the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v incomprehensible_a uncreate_v eternal_a almighty_a also_o that_o each_o of_o these_o person_n by_o himself_o be_v god_n and_o lord_n so_o that_o the_o father_n be_v god_n the_o son_n be_v god_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v god_n yet_o there_o be_v not_o three_o god_n or_o lord_n nor_o three_o incomprehensibles_fw-fr nor_o three_o all_o mighty_n nor_o three_o eternal_o or_o uncreated_a now_o if_o in_o imitation_n of_o this_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v a_o mind_n to_o say_v the_o father_n be_v a_o person_n the_o son_n be_v a_o person_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o person_n yet_o not_o three_o person_n but_o one_o person_n i_o will_v know_v why_o this_o be_v not_o as_o good_a grammar_n and_o arithmetic_n as_o when_o athanasius_n say_v the_o father_n be_v god_n the_o son_n be_v god_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v god_n yet_o not_o three_o god_n but_o one_o god_n or_o when_o he_o say_v the_o father_n uncreated_a the_o son_n uncreated_a and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n uncreated_a yet_o not_o three_o uncreated_a but_o one_o uncreated_a and_o so_o of_o the_o reave_v do_v not_o a_o man_n contradict_v himself_o when_o the_o term_n or_o term_n in_o his_o negation_n be_v the_o same_o with_o those_o in_o his_o affirmation_n if_o not_o than_o it_o may_v be_v true_a that_o the_o father_n be_v a_o person_n the_o son_n be_v a_o person_n the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v a_o person_n yet_o there_o be_v not_o three_o person_n but_o one_o person_n for_o all_o the_o fault_n here_o be_v only_o this_o that_o in_o the_o last_o clause_n the_o term_n person_n be_v deny_v to_o belong_v to_o more_o than_o one_o when_o in_o the_o first_o it_o have_v be_v affirm_v of_o no_o few_o than_o three_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n it_o must_v be_v a_o contradiction_n to_o say_v the_o father_n be_v god_n the_o son_n be_v god_n and_o the_o h._n ghost_n be_v god_n yet_o there_o be_v not_o three_o god_n but_o one_o god_n for_o the_o term_n god_n be_v at_o last_o deny_v to_o belong_v to_o more_o than_o one_o though_o in_o the_o first_o clause_n it_o be_v affirm_v of_o three_o will_v they_o say_v that_o in_o these_o word_n there_o be_v not_o three_o god_n but_o one_o god_n the_o term_n god_n be_v not_o deny_v to_o belong_v to_o more_o than_o one_o or_o be_v not_o appropriate_v to_o one_o if_o so_o then_o there_o be_v not_o three_o person_n but_o one_o person_n and_o again_o there_o be_v not_o three_o man_n but_o one_o man_n then_o i_o say_v these_o proposition_n do_v not_o deny_v the_o term_n person_n and_o man_n to_o belong_v to_o more_o than_o one_o or_o appropriate_v they_o to_o one_o only_a which_o yet_o every_o body_n confess_v they_o do_v but_o here_o be_v a_o numerical_a or_o arithmetical_a as_o well_o as_o grammatical_a contradiction_n for_o in_o say_v god_n the_o father_n god_n the_o son_n and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n yet_o not_o three_o god_n but_o one_o god_n a_o man_n first_o distinct_o number_n three_o god_n and_o then_o in_o sum_v they_o up_o bruitish_o say_v not_o three_o god_n but_o one_o god_n to_o these_o thing_n it_o will_v perhaps_o be_v answer_v that_o when_o we_o say_v god_n the_o father_n god_n the_o son_n and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o thus_o the_o father_n be_v god_n the_o son_n be_v god_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v god_n the_o term_n god_n be_v use_v essential_o and_o therefore_o comprehend_v the_o whole_a three_o person_n so_o that_o there_o be_v neither_o a_o grammatical_a nor_o arithmetical_a contradiction_n but_o this_o remedy_n be_v worse_a if_o possible_a than_o the_o disease_n for_o it_o own_v that_o there_o be_v three_o personal_a god_n though_o there_o be_v but_o one_o essential_a god_n and_o that_o otherways_o the_o proposition_n of_o which_o we_o be_v speak_v will_v imply_v all_o the_o aforesaid_a contradiction_n this_o remedy_n i_o say_v be_v worse_a than_o the_o disease_n for_o 1._o three_o personal_a god_n and_o one_o essential_a god_n make_v four_o god_n if_o the_o essential_a god_n be_v not_o the_o same_o with_o the_o personal_a god_n and_o though_o he_o be_v the_o same_o with_o they_o yet_o since_o they_o be_v not_o the_o same_o with_o one_o another_o but_o distinct_a it_o follow_v that_o there_o be_v three_o god_n that_o be_v three_o personal_n go_n 2._o it_o introduce_v two_o sort_n of_o true_a god_n three_o personal_n and_o one_o essential_a but_o the_o christian_a religion_n know_v and_o own_v but_o one_o true_a and_o most_o high_a god_n of_o any_o sort_n and_o i_o will_v know_v of_o the_o trinitarian_n whether_o they_o dare_v say_v in_o express_a word_n there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o true_a god_n for_o like_a as_o we_o be_v compel_v by_o the_o christian_a verity_n to_o acknowledge_v every_o person_n by_o himself_o to_o be_v lord_n and_o god_n etc._n etc._n by_o the_o christian_a verity_n i_o suppose_v be_v mean_v the_o sacred_a book_n which_o contain_v the_o christian_a religion_n that_o be_v the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n but_o do_v these_o book_n and_o do_v this_o verity_n compel_v we_o to_o the_o acknowledgement_n of_o three_o person_n each_o of_o which_o be_v by_o himself_o supreme_a god_n and_o lord_n and_o yet_o all_o of_o they_o together_o but_o one_o god_n do_v i_o say_v the_o holy_a scripture_n compel_v we_o to_o this_o contradictory_n acknowledgement_n be_v there_o any_o text_n allege_v from_o scripture_n which_o all_o the_o unitarian_n and_o some_o or_o other_o of_o the_o most_o learned_a trinitarian_n do_v not_o easy_o interpret_v in_o such_o sense_n that_o the_o unity_n of_o god_n be_v preserve_v and_o no_o more_o than_o one_o person_n even_o the_o god_n and_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n acknowledge_v to_o be_v god_n see_v the_o history_n of_o the_o unitarian_n but_o if_o there_o be_v no_o text_n of_o scripture_n but_o what_o be_v in_o the_o opinion_n of_o some_o or_o other_o of_o their_o own_o learned_a man_n fair_o capable_a of_o a_o sense_n contrary_a to_o the_o faith_n deliver_v in_o this_o creed_n then_o we_o be_v not_o compel_v to_o acknowledge_v this_o faith_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v the_o contest_v between_o the_o unitarian_n and_o trinitarian_n be_v not_o as_o be_v common_o think_v a_o clash_n of_o reason_n with_o scripture_n but_o it_o lay_v here_o whether_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n may_v be_v understand_v as_o teach_v only_o one_o god_n or_o but_o one_o who_o be_v god_n which_o
