son_n be_v the_o coessential_a son_n of_o the_o father_n must_v also_o be_v all_o light_n all_o life_n and_o all_o love_n thus_o the_o father_n be_v in_o the_o son_n and_o the_o son_n in_o the_o father_n neither_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o father_n and_o son_n distinguishable_a in_o the_o still_a eternity_n the_o nature_n of_o the_o father_n be_v not_o severe_a and_o wrathful_a and_o that_o of_o the_o son_n sweet_a mild_a and_o gentle_a for_o this_o be_v no_o way_n consistent_a with_o the_o one_o simple_a nature_n of_o the_o deity_n the_o father_n be_v all_o light_n life_n and_o love_n in_o the_o son_n nature_n and_o the_o son_n be_v all_o light_n life_n and_o love_n in_o the_o father_n nature_n the_o nature_n of_o the_o father_n flow_v from_o himself_o be_v the_o fountainhead_n and_o spring_n into_o the_o son_n and_o from_o the_o son_n again_o into_o the_o father_n and_o therefore_o the_o son_n be_v call_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o father_n because_o he_o be_v the_o fix_a seat_n of_o the_o father_n light_n life_n and_o love_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o neither_o angel_n nor_o saint_n be_v in_o this_o degree_n codeisied_a and_o consubstantiate_v with_o the_o father_n for_o he_o fill_v the_o still_a eternity_n with_o the_o light_n life_n and_o love_n of_o his_o essential_a deity_n in_o co-equality_n with_o the_o father_n four_o this_o son_n be_v the_o

he_o be_v one_o be_v and_o one_o nature_n with_o the_o father_n the_o very_a heart_n of_o the_o father_n and_o his_o express_a image_n when_o he_o be_v the_o beauty_n brightness_n and_o excellence_n of_o his_o father_n glory_n and_o exalt_v to_o a_o equality_n of_o honour_n and_o dominion_n with_o the_o father_n as_o sit_v in_o the_o same_o throne_n with_o the_o father_n and_o possess_v the_o

can_v the_o one_o be_v worship_v without_o the_o other_o they_o subsist_v in_o each_o other_o this_o be_v the_o son_n who_o be_v exalt_v by_o the_o father_n to_o be_v heir_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o five_o place_n this_o son_n be_v the_o essential_a christ_n of_o god_n i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o stumble_v at_o this_o expression_n i_o may_v indeed_o have_v omit_v it_o but_o for_o the_o matter_n sake_n for_o you_o must_v take_v notice_n that_o i_o speak_v here_o of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n as_o they_o exist_v without_o nature_n and_o in_o this_o state_n the_o son_n of_o god_n can_v proper_o be_v call_v the_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o anoint_v because_o thus_o consider_v he_o be_v not_o anoint_v to_o any_o office_n for_o it_o be_v after_o his_o enter_v into_o the_o property_n of_o nature_n that_o he_o be_v anoint_v to_o be_v the_o mediator_n yet_o bear_v with_o i_o for_o use_v this_o word_n improper_o because_o i_o do_v it_o only_o for_o this_o end_n to_o give_v you_o a_o more_o clear_a and_o distinct_a knowledge_n of_o what_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v as_o he_o exist_v before_o nature_n as_o well_o as_o what_o he_o be_v in_o the_o property_n of_o eternal_a nature_n but_o you_o will_v ask_v of_o i_o why_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n out_o of_o and_o before_o nature_n and_o particular_o why_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o essential_a christ_n of_o god_n as_o exist_v before_o nature_n i_o answer_v that_o my_o speak_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n and_o particular_o of_o the_o second_o person_n who_o be_v the_o christ_n of_o god_n as_o he_o exist_v before_o nature_n be_v only_o in_o order_n to_o give_v you_o a_o more_o distinct_a knowledge_n of_o the_o son_n and_o christ_n of_o god_n in_o nature_n and_o to_o enable_v you_o to_o distinguish_v between_o his_o be_v out_o of_o nature_n and_o his_o exstence_n in_o the_o property_n of_o nature_n this_o essential_a christ_n be_v one_o with_o the_o father_n it_o be_v who_o be_v the_o same_o yesterday_o to_o day_n and_o forever_o even_o before_o all_o time_n and_o before_o eternal_a nature_n and_o he_o be_v the_o co-creation_n with_o the_o father_n he_o be_v the_o word_n wisdom_n power_n the_o light_n life_n love_n the_o heart_n reighteousness_n purity_n brigtness_n excellency_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n in_o the_o father_n for_o we_o must_v not_o conceive_v of_o he_o as_o a_o distinct_a person_n from_o the_o father_n because_o that_o will_v destroy_v the_o high_a unity_n and_o simplicity_n of_o divine_a nature_n which_o admit_v of_o no_o composition_n or_o division_n nor_o on_o the_o other_o side_n must_v we_o conceive_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o be_v only_o a_o distinct_a denomination_n for_o we_o see_v that_o in_o the_o still_a eternity_n there_o be_v a_o distinct_a

saviour_n etc._n etc._n and_o that_o because_o in_o this_o state_n he_o have_v no_o relation_n to_o any_o creature_n whatsoever_o and_o therefore_o as_o long_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o for_o to_o be_v redeem_v or_o save_v he_o can_v not_o proper_o be_v call_v a_o redeemer_n or_o saviour_n but_o you_o will_v say_v this_o essential_a christ_n the_o eternal_a son_n of_o the_o father_n be_v not_o the_o christian_n be_v christ_n in_o who_o they_o trust_v for_o redemption_n salvation_n and_o glorification_n 1._o i_o grant_v that_o proper_o he_o be_v not_o first_o because_o the_o object_n of_o

the_o clear_a transparency_n and_o brightness_n i_o have_v now_o give_v you_o a_o account_n how_o the_o father_n manifest_v himself_o in_o the_o still_a eternity_n to_o be_v all-power_n yet_o before_o i_o leave_v this_o particular_a for_o far_a explanation_n i_o shall_v show_v you_o negative_o what_o this_o power_n of_o the_o father_n be_v not_o first_o then_o say_v i_o that_o this_o power_n of_o the_o father_n be_v no_o personal_a power_n for_o nothing_o of_o personality_n be_v manifest_v in_o the_o still_a eternity_n only_o a_o uniform_a universal_a diffusive_a power_n in_o the_o

with_o his_o own_o power_n be_v in_o the_o father_n power_n as_o be_v coessential_a and_o coequal_a with_o the_o father_n again_o this_o power_n of_o the_o son_n be_v also_o the_o coeternal_a with_o the_o father_n for_o though_o the_o father_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v before_o the_o son_n in_o order_n of_o nature_n forasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v the_o generator_n of_o the_o son_n yet_o we_o can_v

therefore_o be_v the_o eternal_a son_n of_o the_o father_n if_o you_o will_v further_o know_v what_o this_o generate_v power_n of_o the_o son_n be_v i_o say_v it_o be_v a_o eternal_a unity_n and_o
