and_o both_o be_v limit_v and_o beyond_o himself_o he_o can_v go_v therefore_o when_o he_o show_v what_o the_o lord_n do_v he_o say_v he_o change_v his_o mind_n which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o he_o can_v conceive_v of_o god_n for_o that_o matter_n thus_o we_o speak_v so_o well_o as_o we_o can_v yet_o in_o a_o break_a &_o unperfect_a speech_n to_o god_n as_o little_a child_n speak_v to_o their_o nurse_n and_o almighty_a god_n speak_v in_o a_o break_a and_o unperfect_a langguage_n again_o to_o we_o for_o our_o weakness_n and_o understanding_n sake_n as_o the_o nurse_n do_v to_o the_o child_n for_o if_o the_o nurse_n shall_v speak_v so_o perfect_o to_o the_o child_n as_o she_o can_v to_o one_o of_o great_a capacity_n simile_n the_o child_n will_v not_o understand_v she_o so_o if_o god_n shall_v speak_v unto_o we_o as_o he_o can_v and_o according_a to_o his_o own_o nature_n we_o be_v never_o able_a to_o understand_v he_o nor_o conceive_v his_o meaning_n q._n do_v not_o god_n change_v his_o mind_n when_o he_o drown_v the_o world_n a._n no_o but_o he_o do_v then_o execute_v that_o which_o from_o everlasting_a he_o have_v decree_v 3._o objection_n the_o promise_n and_o threating_n of_o god_n be_v not_o always_o fulfil_v ergo_fw-la etc._n etc._n answer_n his_o promise_n be_v make_v with_o a_o condition_n of_o faith_n and_o obedience_n 28.12_o and_o his_o threaten_n with_o a_o exception_n of_o conversion_n and_o repentance_n 7.12_o q._n what_o use_n may_v we_o make_v of_o this_o doctrine_n a._n first_o it_o may_v make_v we_o fear_n to_o offend_v he_o because_o all_o his_o threaten_n be_v unchangeable_a except_o we_o repent_v second_o it_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o our_o hope_n and_o comfort_n in_o this_o life_n for_o he_o do_v not_o now_o love_n and_o now_o hare_n but_o who_o he_o love_v to_o the_o end_n he_o love_v they_o 13.1_o how_o god_n be_v omnipotent_a q._n have_v god_n any_o more_o attribute_n give_v he_o in_o the_o scripture_n a._n yea_o 11.7_o the_o scripture_n do_v call_v he_o omnipotent_a or_o almighty_a q._n what_o mean_v you_o when_o you_o say_v that_o god_n be_v almighty_a a._n i_o mean_v this_o 40.28_o first_o whatsoever_o he_o will_v he_o be_v able_a to_o perform_v 2._o second_o 148.5_o he_o can_v perform_v it_o without_o any_o labour_n or_o mean_n 3._o i_o mean_v that_o all_o power_n be_v so_o in_o god_n only_o 17.28_o that_o no_o creature_n be_v able_a to_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o as_o he_o do_v continual_o receive_v power_n from_o god_n to_o do_v it_o esay_n 40.29_o q._n what_o mean_v you_o when_o you_o say_v all_o power_n be_v in_o god_n it_o shall_v seem_v by_o that_o speech_n that_o there_o be_v more_o power_n in_o god_n then_o one_o a._n that_o we_o may_v right_o understand_v what_o power_n be_v in_o god_n it_o be_v very_o requisite_a that_o we_o do_v first_o consider_v how_o many_o way_n this_o word_n power_n be_v take_v in_o the_o scripture_n q._n declare_v then_o how_o or_o in_o what_o sense_n it_o be_v take_v in_o the_o scripture_n a._n in_o the_o scripture_n this_o word_n power_n be_v take_v two_o way_n or_o in_o two_o sense_n sometime_o for_o authority_n which_o be_v ground_v upon_o law_n by_o which_o authority_n one_o may_v do_v this_o or_o that_o if_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v for_o might_n and_o strength_n or_o ability_n to_o do_v a_o thing_n if_o one_o have_v authority_n to_o do_v it_o and_o these_o be_v distinguish_v by_o two_o word_n among_o the_o grecian_n and_o the_o latin_n for_o when_o the_o grecian_n speak_v of_o power_n as_o it_o signify_v authority_n and_o right_n 17.2_o than_o it_o be_v call_v exousia_fw-la when_o they_o take_v power_n for_o strength_n than_o it_o be_v term_v by_o they_o dunamis_n among_o the_o latin_n be_v take_v the_o first_o way_n it_o be_v call_v potestas_fw-la being_n take_v the_o second_o way_n that_o be_v for_o might_n or_o strength_n it_o be_v call_v potentia_fw-la and_o in_o english_a we_o call_v they_o both_o power_n q._n it_o seem_v by_o your_o speech_n that_o they_o be_v not_o only_o distinguish_v but_o that_o they_o may_v be_v also_o separate_v the-one_a from_o the_o other_o a._n it_o be_v true_a for_o so_o they_o be_v as_o for_o example_n a_o king_n may_v have_v great_a force_n and_o strength_n and_o by_o his_o great_a power_n he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o overthrow_v and_o destroy_v a_o whole_a country_n or_o kingdom_n over_o which_o he_o have_v no_o authority_n again_o some_o king_n have_v power_n that_o be_v authority_n over_o his_o rebel_n and_o yet_o have_v not_o power_n that_o be_v strength_n enough_o to_o subdue_v they_o so_o some_o perhaps_o have_v might_n and_o strength_n enough_o to_o govern_v &_o rule_v another_o man_n wife_n another_o man_n child_n or_o another_o man_n servant_n over_o which_o he_o have_v no_o power_n that_o be_v authority_n and_o again_o father_n have_v authority_n over_o their_o own_o child_n all_o husband_n over_o their_o own_o wife_n and_o all_o master_n over_o their_o own_o servant_n and_o yet_o all_o have_v not_o power_n that_o strength_n and_o ability_n to_o rule_v they_o q_o i_o perceive_v by_o this_o which_o you_o have_v say_v that_o in_o creature_n these_o two_o may_v be_v separate_v one_o from_o the_o other_o and_o many_o time_n be_v but_o what_o be_v they_o in_o god_n a._n in_o god_n they_o be_v not_o divide_v but_o distinguish_v for_o he_o have_v all_o power_n that_o be_v all_o authority_n over_o all_o thing_n and_o he_o have_v all_o power_n that_o be_v all_o strength_n force_n might_n and_o ability_n to_o do_v all_o thing_n with_o all_o thing_n at_o his_o good_a pleasure_n and_o this_o power_n be_v not_o give_v he_o but_o he_o have_v it_o in_o himself_o and_o of_o himself_o most_o perfect_o absolute_o and_o eternal_o q._n but_o of_o what_o power_n do_v we_o speak_v when_o we_o say_v that_o god_n be_v almighty_a whether_o do_v you_o mean_v his_o right_n &_o authority_n or_o his_o strength_n and_o ability_n or_o both_o a._n both_o be_v in_o god_n essential_o but_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o god_n omnipotency_n it_o mean_v &_o so_o do_v we_o his_o strength_n and_o ability_n whereby_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_v not_o exclude_v his_o right_n god_n power_n many_o way_n consider_v q._n if_o all_o power_n or_o may_v be_v in_o god_n tell_v i_o how_o manifold_a be_v this_o power_n which_o be_v attribute_v to_o god_n in_o the_o scripture_n a._n to_o speak_v simple_o the_o power_n of_o god_n be_v but_o only_o one_o and_o a_o most_o simple_a &_o single_a thing_n which_o be_v his_o essence_n &_o substance_n yet_o for_o diverse_a respect_n it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v manifold_a &_o it_o may_v be_v consider_v two_o way_n first_o as_o it_o work_v always_o and_o can_v work_v in_o god_n himself_o for_o god_n in_o himself_o do_v always_o understand_v will_n love_n etc._n etc._n seondly_n as_o it_o work_v out_o of_o god_n himself_o in_o the_o creature_n as_o when_o he_o create_v all_o thing_n &_o do_v now_o work_v in_o govern_v all_o thing_n and_o can_v work_v if_o it_o please_v he_o infinite_a thing_n and_o of_o this_o work_n of_o god_n power_n do_v the_o scripture_n proper_o speak_v when_o they_o call_v god_n almighty_a q._n how_o many_o way_n may_v god_n power_n be_v consider_v as_o it_o work_v in_o himself_o a._n 1_o two_o way_n first_o as_o it_o be_v common_a to_o all_o the_o 3._o person_n in_o trinity_n that_o be_v a_o power_n whereby_o god_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v understand_v himself_o love_v himself_o and_o work_v in_o himself_o and_o these_o action_n do_v not_o differ_v from_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n for_o that_o in_o god_n there_o be_v nothing_o which_o be_v not_o his_o substance_n 2_o the_o other_o work_v in_o god_n himself_o be_v that_o by_o which_o the_o father_n do_v beget_v eternal_o a_o son_n of_o his_o own_o nature_n and_o substance_n equal_a to_o himself_o and_o this_o power_n of_o beget_v the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v proper_a only_o to_o the_o father_n and_o not_o to_o the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n q_o how_o many_o way_n do_v you_o consider_v the_o power_n of_o god_n work_v out_o of_o himself_o a._n that_o power_n which_o have_v relation_n or_o respect_n to_o thing_n create_v be_v two_o fold_n the_o first_o be_v a_o power_n absolute_a absolute_a whereby_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_n the_o other_o be_v a_o power_n actual_a actual_a whereby_o he_o do_v indeed_o whatsoever_o he_o will_n q._n where_o do_v the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o the_o absolute_a power_n of_o god_n by_o which_o he_o can_v do_v more_o than_o he_o do_v if_o he_o will_v a._n yes_o
