and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v some_o distinction_n and_o how_o be_v that_o they_o thus_o it_o be_v because_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o comprehend_v that_o which_o be_v so_o high_a above_o all_o our_o understanding_n and_o reason_n the_o ancient_a doctor_n have_v use_v the_o word_n person_n and_o have_v say_v that_o in_o god_n there_o be_v three_o person_n godhead_n how_o there_o be_v three_o person_n in_o the_o godhead_n not_o as_o we_o speak_v in_o our_o common_a speech_n call_v three_o man_n three_o person_n or_o else_o as_o in_o the_o popedom_n they_o will_v be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o point_v three_o puppet_n or_o monkey_n and_o say_v lo_o the_o trinity_n but_o this_o word_n person_n in_o this_o matter_n be_v use_v plain_o to_o express_v and_o set_v out_o the_o propriety_n that_o be_v in_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n the_o word_n substance_n or_o as_o the_o greek_n speak_v hypostasis_fw-la be_v indeed_o more_o meet_a and_o convenient_a because_o it_o be_v a_o word_n of_o holy_a scripture_n and_o the_o apostle_n use_v it_o in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n when_o he_o say_v 1.3_o hebr._n 1.3_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o lively_a image_n and_o the_o brightness_n of_o the_o glory_n yea_o the_o image_n or_o ingrave_v form_n of_o the_o substance_n or_o person_n of_o god_n his_o father_n when_o he_o speak_v in_o that_o place_n of_o the_o substance_n or_o person_n of_o god_n he_o mean_v not_o the_o essence_n or_o be_v but_o he_o speak_v of_o this_o propriety_n which_o be_v in_o the_o father_n to_o wit_n that_o he_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o thing_n trinity_n god_n word_n only_o must_v be_v the_o rule_n of_o our_o faith_n in_o all_o point_n but_o special_o in_o the_o article_n of_o the_o trinity_n but_o now_o let_v we_o look_v to_o their_o three_o substance_n or_o person_n as_o we_o call_v they_o and_o mark_v how_o they_o accord_n and_o agree_v so_o farfoorth_o as_o god_n teach_v we_o concern_v they_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v for_o we_o must_v not_o at_o any_o hand_n go_v beyond_o these_o bound_n and_o limit_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o have_v a_o eye_n thereto_o so_o farforth_o as_o shall_v be_v requisite_a for_o the_o exposition_n of_o the_o place_n when_o man_n speak_v of_o god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o man_n of_o themselves_o be_v confound_v and_o know_v not_o what_o to_o think_v or_o imagine_v save_v that_o they_o go_v astray_o in_o their_o own_o cogitation_n and_o thought_n 1.21_o rom._n 1.21_o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v and_o thereupon_o it_o fall_v out_o that_o they_o wax_v thereof_o over_o proud_a through_o their_o own_o prudencie_n and_o wisdom_n and_o therefore_o god_n also_o do_v in_o such_o sort_n punish_v they_o that_o they_o entangle_v themselves_o in_o such_o horrible_a labyrinth_n &_o maze_n that_o they_o can_v not_o at_o any_o hand_n come_v out_o but_o when_o we_o will_v suffer_v god_n to_o guide_v we_o unto_o he_o self_n by_o the_o holy_a scripture_n prove_v the_o trinity_n prove_v we_o shall_v know_v he_o so_o farforth_o as_o shall_v be_v necessary_a and_o meet_a for_o us._n for_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o father_n as_o to_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o then_o we_o can_v not_o conceive_v or_o think_v upon_o the_o father_n without_o his_o counsel_n and_o eternal_a wisdom_n beside_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a virtue_n &_o power_n that_o remain_v in_o he_o which_o we_o shall_v also_o perceive_v and_o feel_v very_o well_o mark_v then_o how_o we_o shall_v find_v these_o three_o propriety_n in_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o saint_n john_n mean_v to_o say_v in_o this_o place_n that_o that_o word_n be_v with_o god_n if_o there_o be_v not_o some_o distinction_n he_o can_v not_o speak_v so_o for_o that_o shall_v be_v to_o speak_v unproper_o to_o say_v god_n be_v with_o himself_o so_o then_o let_v we_o know_v that_o this_o word_n have_v some_o distinction_n and_o be_v indeed_o to_o be_v distinguish_v from_o the_o heavenly_a father_n beginning_n christ_n beget_v from_o before_o all_o beginning_n for_o it_o be_v that_o word_n that_o be_v beget_v from_o before_o all_o time_n see_v that_o god_n always_o have_v his_o counsel_n and_o his_o wisdom_n and_o we_o must_v not_o for_o all_o that_o so_o much_o as_o imagine_v or_o think_v upon_o a_o beginning_n for_o we_o may_v not_o say_v that_o god_n have_v at_o any_o time_n be_v without_o his_o understanding_n counsel_n and_o wisdom_n so_o then_o we_o must_v not_o set_v aside_o and_o separate_v from_o god_n the_o propriety_n of_o this_o word_n as_o to_o say_v that_o we_o can_v judge_v that_o there_o have_v be_v some_o certain_a time_n wherein_o it_o have_v not_o be_v with_o god_n for_o this_o shall_v be_v to_o make_v a_o idol_n of_o it_o basil_n the_o trinity_n destroy_v not_o the_o unity_n neither_o do_v the_o unity_n infringe_v the_o trinity_n gregor_n nazi_n in_o sermo_fw-la de_fw-fr sacro_fw-la basil_n as_o it_o be_v but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v the_o three_o person_n be_v but_o one_o god_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o must_v distinguish_v they_o because_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a and_o a_o assure_a distinction_n of_o they_o as_o be_v in_o this_o place_n declare_v and_o with_o all_o let_v we_o remember_v a_o old_a doctor_n sentence_n which_o be_v very_o worthy_a to_o be_v think_v upon_o because_o it_o be_v excellent_a i_o can_v not_o say_v he_o think_v upon_o these_o three_o propriety_n that_o be_v set_v out_o unto_o i_o in_o god_n but_o that_o immediate_o my_o understanding_n come_v back_o again_o to_o one_o and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o i_o to_o know_v one_o only_a god_n but_o that_o i_o regard_n and_o look_v upon_o all_o the_o three_o propriety_n and_o see_v they_o distinguish_v in_o my_o own_o understanding_n according_a to_o the_o light_n which_o be_v give_v i_o thereof_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n behold_v how_o the_o faithful_a shall_v know_v god_n know_v the_o father_n they_o will_v come_v to_o his_o wisdom_n who_o be_v this_o word_n of_o which_o there_o be_v speak_v in_o this_o place_n they_o will_v come_v also_o incontinent_o to_o that_o virtue_n and_o power_n whereof_o we_o have_v in_o part_n say_v somewhat_o and_o when_o they_o shall_v have_v once_o know_v these_o three_o person_n they_o will_v not_o any_o more_o straggle_v and_o wander_v hither_o and_o thither_o but_o they_o will_v come_v to_o this_o one_o and_o only_a essence_n to_o know_v that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o one_o only_a god_n yea_o such_o a_o one_o and_o only_a god_n indeed_o as_o have_v in_o such_o sort_n create_v the_o world_n that_o he_o have_v not_o leave_v undo_v any_o thing_n of_o all_o that_o which_o be_v requisite_a and_o necessary_a to_o accomplish_v our_o redemption_n thus_o much_o then_o we_o be_v to_o mark_v as_o concern_v that_o which_o be_v say_v that_o this_o word_n be_v with_o god_n to_o wit_n work_n the_o perfection_n of_o god_n work_n that_o the_o evangelist_n mean_v to_o separate_v jesus_n christ_n from_o all_o creature_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o to_o declare_v unto_o we_o the_o distinction_n which_o be_v between_o he_o and_o the_o father_n now_o he_o add_v that_o that_o word_n be_v god_n and_o this_o he_o do_v the_o more_o full_o and_o better_a to_o express_v that_o which_o he_o mean_v god_n christ_n be_v very_a god_n to_o wit_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o a_o thing_n create_v which_o have_v have_v a_o beginning_n but_o that_o he_o be_v our_o true_a and_o very_a god_n this_o place_n have_v be_v ill_o understand_v of_o some_o judgement_n read_v this_o with_o reverence_n and_o judgement_n and_o they_o have_v also_o foolish_o translate_v it_o as_o to_o say_v god_n be_v the_o word_n for_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v that_o god_n be_v the_o word_n the_o father_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o god_n but_o s._n john_n mean_v to_o speak_v altogether_o the_o contrary_a to_o wit_n that_o this_o word_n be_v god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o deity_n and_o godhead_n be_v of_o the_o same_o essence_n with_o the_o father_n so_o he_o shut_v not_o the_o father_n out_o from_o the_o deity_n but_o declare_v that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o one_o only_a essence_n in_o god_n and_o although_o there_o be_v a_o distinction_n between_o god_n and_o his_o word_n yet_o must_v we_o always_o come_v back_o to_o this_o simple_a and_o plain_a truth_n that_o they_o be_v one_o god_n which_o we_o must_v worship_v etc._n arius_n nestorius_n etc._n etc._n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o old_a heretic_n travail_v very_o sore_o to_o pervert_v this_o place_n to_o the_o end_n
and_o in_o all_o creature_n and_o what_o manner_n a_o one_o be_v that_o even_o that_o all_o thing_n be_v make_v and_o preserve_v by_o that_o word_n of_o god_n thing_n man_n soul_n a_o very_a excellent_a thing_n but_o yet_o there_o be_v a_o more_o excellent_a matter_n in_o man_n to_o wit_n the_o soul_n understanding_n and_o reason_n for_o a_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v without_o sense_n and_o feeling_n as_o stone_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v without_o understanding_n and_o reason_n as_o bruit_n beast_n but_o he_o have_v a_o more_o excellent_a life_n yea_o even_o to_o behold_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v above_o and_o beyond_o the_o world_n now_o consequent_o he_o add_v that_o that_o light_n shine_v in_o the_o darkness_n and_o that_o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v it_o not_o he_o express_o put_v down_o that_o because_o that_o that_o light_n which_o god_n place_v in_o man_n be_v as_o it_o be_v altogether_o put_v out_o and_o indeed_o if_o we_o shall_v judge_v according_a to_o that_o which_o we_o now_o can_v see_v in_o mortal_a man_n we_o shall_v not_o much_o regard_n and_o esteem_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n man_n sin_n deface_v god_n image_n in_o man_n for_o albeit_o that_o man_n be_v create_v to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n yet_o so_o it_o be_v that_o through_o sin_n he_o have_v be_v disfigure_v and_o defame_v what_o be_v it_o then_o that_o we_o see_v in_o man_n we_o see_v there_o a_o image_n of_o god_n which_o be_v altogether_o deface_v and_o mar_v because_o that_o the_o devil_n have_v defile_v it_o through_o sin_n but_o albeit_o that_o man_n follow_v altogether_o that_o which_o satan_n prompt_v they_o too_o light_n satan_n neither_o by_o force_n nor_o fraud_n can_v hinder_v christ_n the_o light_n have_v quench_v and_o put_v out_o the_o light_n of_o god_n yet_o so_o it_o be_v notwithstanding_o that_o the_o devil_n be_v not_o able_a by_o his_o subtlety_n to_o bring_v so_o much_o to_o pass_v that_o this_o light_n of_o god_n shall_v not_o yet_o shine_v forth_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o darkness_n and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o saint_n john_n mind_v to_o declare_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v true_a my_o child_n that_o if_o that_o which_o be_v first_o give_v unto_o man_n have_v continue_v and_o abide_v with_o they_o we_o shall_v have_v see_v nothing_o now_o but_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n shine_v in_o every_o place_n in_o steed_n that_o now_o we_o behold_v his_o image_n wonderful_o deface_v and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o it_o so_o fall_v out_o that_o we_o may_v perceive_v in_o man_n some_o brightness_n that_o god_n have_v leave_v he_o fall_n some_o spark_n of_o light_n remain_v notwithstanding_o man_n foul_a fall_n and_o some_o little_a spark_n of_o that_o his_o light_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o evangelist_n mean_v to_o declare_v i_o leave_v untouched_a other_o thing_n because_o the_o time_n suffer_v we_o not_o to_o speak_v any_o more_o thereof_o and_o because_o i_o have_v already_o be_v overlong_o notwithstanding_o we_o be_v to_o mark_v that_o man_n have_v so_o much_o light_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n as_o be_v sufficient_a to_o win_v they_o and_o make_v they_o inexcusable_a before_o he_o they_o man_n be_v not_o what_o they_o think_v of_o themselves_o but_o what_o god_n pronounce_v of_o they_o let_v we_o indever_n to_o make_v ourselves_o believe_v of_o ourselves_o what_o we_o will_v or_o can_v yet_o behold_v god_n who_o pronounce_v that_o we_o be_v all_o darkness_n and_o how_o so_o let_v we_o not_o attribute_v that_o unto_o god_n but_o to_o our_o own_o fault_n now_o then_o either_o god_n must_v inlighten_v we_o with_o his_o brightness_n or_o else_o otherwise_o there_o shall_v be_v nothing_o but_o darkness_n in_o we_o and_o it_o can_v be_v avoid_v but_o we_o shall_v stumble_v and_o fall_v down_o if_o we_o will_v but_o once_o lift_v up_o ourselves_o to_o go_v forward_o one_o step_n without_o his_o guide_n and_o government_n and_o yet_o so_o it_o be_v as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o god_n have_v not_o so_o destitute_v we_o that_o we_o be_v altogether_o forsake_v of_o he_o so_z that_o we_o have_v nothing_o remain_v of_o his_o gift_n and_o that_o so_o it_o be_v there_o be_v yet_o some_o seed_n of_o religion_n in_o man_n they_o have_v yet_o some_o remnaunte_n of_o their_o first_o creation_n as_o a_o man_n may_v see_v that_o even_o in_o the_o most_o wicked_a and_o reprobate_a there_o be_v some_o impression_n and_o print_n of_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o this_o be_v to_o make_v they_o so_o much_o the_o more_o inexcusable_a 1.20_o man_n light_n make_v he_o without_o excuse_n before_o god_n as_o rom._n 1.20_o forsomuch_o as_o they_o have_v not_o profit_v thereby_o their_o condemnation_n shall_v be_v therefore_o so_o much_o the_o more_o grievous_a and_o without_o doubt_v it_o shall_v be_v double_v upon_o they_o behold_v then_o how_o notwithstanding_o that_o our_o nature_n be_v so_o corrupt_v we_o do_v yet_o retain_v some_o little_a spark_n of_o that_o grace_n which_o god_n put_v in_o our_o father_n adam_n so_o that_o this_o sentence_n be_v very_o true_a that_o that_o light_n shine_v in_o darkness_n now_o further_o the_o evangelist_n say_v that_o the_o darkness_n comprehend_v it_o not_o wherein_o he_o show_v how_o great_a the_o unthankfulness_n of_o man_n be_v blindness_n man_n malice_n the_o cause_n of_o his_o own_o blindness_n behold_v god_n who_o make_v his_o brightness_n to_o shine_v in_o we_o and_o his_o word_n to_o lighten_v we_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o darken_v &_o dim_v the_o same_o through_o our_o malice_n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o gospel_n itself_o be_v a_o manifestation_n and_o declaration_n of_o this_o light_n but_o yet_o that_o malice_n and_o unthankfulness_n which_o be_v in_o we_o put_v it_o out_o as_o much_o as_o in_o we_o be_v unless_o god_n remedy_v and_o redress_v it_o make_v a_o change_n in_o we_o by_o his_o power_n and_o infinite_a goodness_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o saint_n john_n mean_v to_o declare_v in_o this_o place_n and_o with_o all_o he_o begin_v to_o prepare_v we_o to_o that_o which_o he_o will_v

manifest_v in_o the_o flesh_n for_o our_o salvation_n needful_a the_o mystery_n of_o our_o redemption_n very_o great_a and_o needful_a he_o mean_v then_o to_o declare_v how_o great_a the_o mystery_n of_o our_o redemption_n be_v and_o what_o need_v we_o have_v of_o it_o in_o say_v that_o we_o have_v not_o comprehend_v the_o brightness_n that_o be_v in_o we_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o can_v nothing_o at_o all_o have_v profit_v we_o to_o have_v the_o light_n that_o shine_v in_o we_o unless_o we_o have_v withal_o be_v redeem_v and_o that_o this_o word_n have_v execute_v and_o perform_v the_o love_n of_o god_n towards_o we_o in_o repair_v his_o image_n which_o be_v deface_v in_o we_o through_o our_o sin_n and_o whole_o disfigure_v in_o the_o first_o man_n mark_v i_o say_v how_o

unless_o that_o god_n do_v strengthen_v they_o against_o assault_n let_v we_o take_v then_o the_o most_o valiant_a man_n in_o the_o world_n god_n the_o best_a be_v not_o able_a to_o stand_v without_o

attain_v more_o than_o other_o ought_v always_o to_o consider_v how_o temptation_n do_v overcome_v man_n infirmity_n &_o weakness_n when_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o one_o be_v fall_v into_o theft_n
