give_v to_o man._n i_o say_v when_o we_o consider_v these_o what_o necessity_n be_v there_o of_o limit_v and_o confine_v god_n almighty_a here_o may_v we_o not_o as_o reasonable_o think_v that_o if_o in_o his_o infinite_a wisdom_n he_o so_o think_v fit_a he_o may_v as_o well_o make_v a_o be_v yet_o more_o perfect_a why_o be_v it_o not_o as_o conceivable_a that_o to_o bring_v about_o his_o own_o

his_o own_o term_n and_o believe_v it_o exhibit_v in_o that_o manner_n that_o he_o himself_o have_v reveal_v it_o be_v it_o not_o that_o god_n who_o justice_n be_v infinite_a that_o be_v offend_v be_v

the_o capacity_n of_o humane_a nature_n as_o to_o tell_v we_o in_o what_o manner_n he_o have_v do_v it_o viz._n that_o he_o have_v send_v his_o only_o beget_v son_n into_o the_o world_n to_o be_v bear_v of_o a_o woman_n to_o live_v a_o life_n of_o righteousness_n for_o our_o instruction_n and_o example_n and_o to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o sinner_n to_o satisfy_v for_o our_o defection_n and_o further_o that_o our_o original_a taint_n may_v not_o prevail_v over_o and_o misguide_v we_o into_o actual_a transgression_n he_o have_v send_v his_o holy_a spirit_n among_o we_o to_o lead_v we_o into_o the_o way_n of_o truth_n and_o righteousness_n this_o he_o be_v please_v to_o promise_v after_o the_o fall_n by_o his_o prophet_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o have_v now_o perform_v it_o to_o we_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o new_a now_o be_v it_o fit_a for_o we_o to_o object_n against_o this_o manifestation_n of_o his_o mercy_n to_o we_o and_o glorious_a

the_o prologue_n to_o the_o decalogue_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n which_o bring_v the_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n out_o of_o the_o house_n of_o bondage_n etc._n etc._n intimate_v thereby_o to_o they_o the_o great_a mercy_n he_o have_v show_v in_o his_o miraculous_a preservation_n of_o the_o patriarch_n and_o people_n of_o isreal_n so_o now_o in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n god_n almighty_n have_v be_v please_v to_o manife_v himself_o to_o we_o under_o other_o denomination_n and_o appellation_n viz._n those_o of_o god_n the_o father_n god_n the_o son_n and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n intimate_v thereby_o to_o we_o in_o what_o manner_n be_v have_v make_v good_a his_o promise_a mercy_n and_o bring_v about_o the_o great_a work_n of_o our_o redemption_n and_o that_o under_o those_o appellation_n and_o manifestation_n of_o himself_o he_o will_v now_o be_v worship_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o for_o we_o to_o understand_v the_o great_a

to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n i_o be_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n which_o bring_v thou_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n etc._n etc._n have_v it_o be_v fit_a for_o they_o to_o have_v inquire_v how_o he_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o egypt_n and_o to_o have_v ravel_v into_o all_o the_o miracle_n he_o wrought_v for_o that_o purpose_n and_o to_o have_v bring_v they_o to_o the_o touch_n of_o their_o understanding_n and_o to_o have_v doubt_v the_o truth_n thereof_o or_o the_o power_n of_o god_n that_o do_v they_o because_o they_o can_v not_o reconcile_v they_o to_o their_o own_o reason_n yet_o thus_o ill_o certain_o do_v they_o use_v god_n almighty_a who_o will_v doubt_v the_o manner_n of_o our_o salvation_n because_o they_o can_v understand_v the_o mystery_n alas_o vain_a man_n that_o will_v not_o believe_v what_o god_n himself_o have_v reveal_v because_o it_o will_v not_o bear_v the_o test_n of_o their_o weak_a reason_n do_v they_o think_v the_o wisdom_n and_o power_n of_o the_o almighty_a be_v to_o be_v bound_v by_o the_o scanty_a limit_n of_o their_o understanding_n that_o be_v for_o what_o be_v finite_a to_o comprehend_v infinity_o god_n be_v not_o god_n if_o that_o be_v so_o and_o these_o very_a man_n who_o value_v themselves_o so_o much_o upon_o their_o reason_n that_o they_o think_v they_o ought_v to_o understand_v the_o very_a arcana_fw-la of_o heaven_n

polemic_a divinity_n and_o particular_o in_o this_o dispute_n and_o in_o who_o these_o thought_n be_v occasion_v by_o the_o perusal_n of_o your_o late_a paper_n i_o be_o sir_n may_v 28_o 1691._o you_o

have_v be_v suggest_v to_o i_o by_o another_o anonymous_n that_o we_o know_v so_o little_a of_o the_o infinite_a divine_a nature_n there_o may_v possible_o be_v great_a distinction_n between_o the_o

than_o so_o nor_o have_v i_o any_o where_o deny_v it_o but_o how_o much_o that_o more_o be_v we_o can_v tell_v sure_o we_o be_v not_o so_o as_o to_o be_v three_o god_n or_o more_o god_n than_o one_o and_o i_o choose_v to_o say_v with_o st._n austin_n that_o these_o three_o be_v one_o spirit_n as_o we_o say_v they_o be_v one_o god_n not_o three_o spirit_n the_o true_a ancient_a import_n of_o the_o
