it is dazled with the Glory of the Trinity when it would conceive the mistery of the trinity it is overcome with the glory of the unity Not to be illustrated by any instances And to illustrate this mistery with instances is to shadow out the light with colours though the instances are that of the same sun in its body beams light the same water in its fountaine spring river yea the same soule in its understanding memory and will And therefore in this mystery of the Trinity how in that most simple and single Essence of God there be certain Persons truly subsisting Three in One and One in three differing but not divided severall but not sundred many and yet the same all one for their Nature all distinct for their persons is a secret of all secrets passing all reach and understanding of man rather reverently to be adored then too curiously to be searched into Deut. 29 29. for that secret things belong unto the Lord and things revealed unto us Let us not therefore I say be too curious to enquire how these things can be but let us faithfully beleeve them to be a Trinity of Persons in the Vnity of the Divine Essence and each person to have the whole divine Essence so communicated unto it as that all the three persons must needs be co eternall co essentiall co-equall Yea finally because it must be our cheifest care to keep our selves within the limits of Faith We must keep within the limits of faith I will hereunto add the Creed of Blessed Athanasius concerning this most sacred and ineffable mystery Mar. 16.16 Mat. 28.16 1 VVhosoever would be saved before all things it is needfull that he hold the Catholick Faith which except every man keep whole and inviolate Heb. 11.6 2 Thes 1.8 hee shall doubtlesse perish everlastingly Deut. 6 4. 1 Cor. 8 4. 1 Joh. 5.7 Isa 6 3. 2 And this is the Catholick Faith That wee worship one God in Trinity and the Trinity in Unity neither confounding the persons nor dividing the Essence Joh. 5 32. 14 16. 14. 26 chap. 1●1 5 31. Joh. 10.30 5.7.18 3 For there is one person of the Father another of the Son another of the Holy Ghost But the Divinity of the Father Son and Holy Ghost is one the glory equall the Majesty co-eternall Joh. 1.1.3 Heb. 1.2 J●● 14.23 Ephes 3.17 4 Such as the Father is such is the Son and such is the Holy Ghost the Father uncreate the Son uncreate and the Holy Ghost uncreate Mat. 28.20 Prov. 8 25. Rev. 1.8 21 6. Gen 1.2 Job 33.4 Rom. 8.9 the Father immense the son immense and the Holy Ghost immense the Father eternall the son eternall and the Holy Ghost eternall and yet not three eternalls but one eternall as there are not three uncreated nor three incomprehensible but one uncreated and one incomprehensible 5 Likewise the Father is almighty Joh. 16.15 Rev. 1.8.4.8 1 Joh. 5.20 Rom. 9.5 1 Cor 12.11 Acts 5.3.4 Luke 2.11 Acts 4.24 1 Cor. 8.6 the son almighty and the Holy Ghost almighty yet there are not three Almighties but one Almighty even so the Father is God the son is God and the Holy Ghost is God and yet there are not three Gods but one God so the Father is Lord the son is Lord and the Holy Ghost is Lord yet not three Lords but one Lord. 6 For As we are compelled by the Christian verity to confesse severally each person to be God or Lord so we are forbid by the Catholick faith to say there be three Gods or three Lords 7. The Father is made of none Joh. 1.14 Prov. 8.25 Psal 2.7 Heb 1 5. Joh 15. ●6 Rom. 8.9 Gal. 4.6 nor created nor begotten the son is from the Father alone not made nor created but begotten the Holy Ghost is from the father and the son neither made nor created nor begotten but proceeding There is then one Father not three Fathers one son not three sons one Holy Ghost not three Holy Ghosts 8 And in this Trinity none is before or after other none lesser or greater then other Joh. 5.18 10.30 16.15 Gen 1.2.26 but all the three persons are co-eternall among themselves and co-equall so that in all things as is sayd the Unity in Trinity 1 Joh. 2.23 Rom. 8.9 1 Cor. 12.3 and Trinity in Unity is to be worshipped He then that will be saved must thus thinke of the Trinity 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 FINIS A Catalogue of some Bookes printed for and sold by Edw.
