Son he saith thou Lord in the beginning hast laid the Foundation of the Earth c. And therefore he cannot be a Creature but the Creator of all things Sixthly The Deity of Jesus Christ is proved by that Divine Worship and Adoration given to him None but God is to be worshipped with Divine Worship But the Son of God is to be worshipped with Divine Worship therefore he is God First to prove the Major in Matth. 4.10 It is written Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God and him only shalt thou serve And Rev. 19.10 ch 20.8 In both which places when John fell down to worship the Holy Angel he was forbidden saying See thou do it not for I am thy fellow-Servant worship God And Gal. 4.8 Howbeit then when ye knew not God ye did Service unto them which by nature are no Gods And Isa 42.8 I am the Lord that is my Name and my Glory will I not give to another c. And chap. 48.11 For my own sake even for my own sake will I do it for how should my Name be polluted and I will not give my Glory unto another Now from these Scriptures there is an Exclusion from Divine Worship of all that are not God by nature and none is to be glorified or worshipped with the same Glory or Worship which belongs to God but Himself only Secondly to prove the Minor That the Son of God is to be worshipped with Divine Worship Matth. 14.33 Then they that were in the Ship came and worshipped him saying Of a truth thou art the Son of God So in ch 2.11 The wise Men worshipped him In chap. 8.2 The Leper worshipped him And in ch 28.17 The Disciples worshipped him and in many other places he was worshipped and he never forbad any And therefore we have good reason to believe that it was due unto him as God For when Cornelius fell down to worship Peter he took him up and said Stand up I my self also am a Man And so also in Rev. 19.10 and ch 20.8 when John fell down to worship the Holy Angel he was forbidden saying See thou do it not for I am thy fellow-Servant and of thy Brethren worship God So likewise if Christ had not been God by nature he would not have suffered his Disciples and others to have worshipped him without rebuke for it But to proceed There are other Scriptures of greater force to prove that the Son of God is to be worshipped with Divine Worship as Heb. 1.6 And again when he bringeth the first-begotten into the World he saith And let all the Angels of God worship him And Rev. 5.8 9. The four Beasts or rather four living Creatures and four and twenty Elders fell down before the Lamb viz. Christ John 1.29 having every one of them Harps and golden Vials full of Odours which are the Prayers of Saints And they sang a new Song saying Thou art worthy to take the Book and to open the Seals thereof For thou wast slain and hast redeemed us to God by thy Blood c. Ver. 13. And every Creature which is in Heaven and on the Earth and under the Earth and such as are in the Sea and all that are in them heard I saying Blessing and Honour and Glory and Power be unto him that sitteth upon the Throne and unto the Lamb for ever and ever Ver. 14. And the four Beasts or living Creatures said Amen even so Amen Ch. 7.9 After this I beheld and lo a great number which no Man could number of all Nations and Kindreds and People and Tongues stood before the Throne and before the Lamb and cryed with a loud Voice saying Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the Throne and unto the Lamb. So that our Lord Jesus Christ is counted worthy of the same Divine Worship by all Creatures in Heaven and Earth as God the Father and hath the same Power as well as Honour and Glory ascribed to him Thus I have proved both the Major and the Minor viz. that none but God is to be worshipped with Divine Worship That the Son of God is to be worshipped with Divine Worship and the Conclusion follows therefore he is God To what I have said by way of positive proof touching the Deity of Christ I shall not further add for there hath been given plentiful and sufficient Evidences from the Word of God that our Lord Jesus Christ has undeniable marks of the Divine Nature upon him so that his Deity cannot be denied without subverting the Holy Scripture which gives him the same Names proves his Eternity renders the same Worship attributes the same Works and asserts him the same as God the Father And if we cannot know him as God by these Marks by what can we know him then And if these be insufficient how shall we know God the Father For if the chiefest Marks of the Divine Nature that are found on our Lord Jesus Christ be no proof of his existing in the same Nature we may then question the Deity of God the Father who is only known and distinguished from all Creatures by these and the like Attributes given to him and Descriptions of him So that I see no way to escape the powerful convincing Testimonies of this Truth if there be but a searching after it unless we deny the Authority of the Holy Scriptures CHAP. V. Wherein is proved the Deity of the Holy Ghost AS the Scriptures have given a clear Testimony to the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ so also they will afford us sufficient Evidence of the Deity of the Holy Spirit which I intend to demonstrate in this Chapter And First I shall prove that the Holy Spirit is a Divine Person and not a Quality in God First Our Lord Jesus Christ speaks of the Holy Ghost as a Person John 14.16 17. And I will pray the Father and he shall give you another Comforter that he may abide with you for ever Even the Spirit of Truth whom the World cannot receive because it seeth him not neither knoweth him But ye know him for he dwelleth with you and shall be in you Chap. 16.8 And when he is come he will reprove the World of Sin Ver. 13. Howbeit when he the Spirit of Truth is come he will guide you into all Truth for he shall not speak of himself but whatsoever he shall hear that shall he speak and he will shew you things to come In these Scriptures the words He Him and Himself are used to the Holy Spirit and these all do note him to be a Person and not a Quality Secondly He is called the Comforter John 16.7 which is a personal Name Thirdly He is put in the same rank with other Divine Persons as a Person Matth. 28.19 Baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost 1 John 5.7 For there are Three that bear Record in Heaven The Father the Word and the Holy Ghost and these three are one
