they_o will_v have_v none_o to_o be_v equal_a to_o god_n oppose_v against_o the_o authority_n of_o christ_n and_o this_o likewise_o be_v speak_v to_o aggranate_n their_o malice_n the_o second_o cause_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o christ_n do_v the_o same_o work_n with_o his_o father_n be_v because_o the_o father_n show_v he_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v for_o a_o bare_a relation_n or_o a_o instruction_n or_o that_o the_o father_n do_v they_o only_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o son_n as_o one_o man_n may_v do_v a_o thing_n in_o presence_n of_o

whatsoever_o else_o the_o father_n have_v together_o with_o his_o essence_n second_o that_o the_o father_n do_v so_o set_v forth_o himself_o in_o his_o son_n that_o he_o may_v be_v see_v in_o he_o and_o who_o so_o know_v the_o son_n may_v know_v the_o father_n as_o joh._n 14.9_o and_o this_o be_v a_o further_a argument_n to_o prove_v the_o equality_n because_o god_n communicate_v all_o thing_n to_o he_o use_v 1._o it_o show_v unto_o we_o how_o the_o unsearchable_a mystery_n and_o depth_n of_o god_n wisdom_n come_v to_o our_o knowledge_n and_o to_o be_v reveal_v unto_o us._n god_n have_v

the_o word_n because_o he_o have_v utter_v the_o will_n of_o his_o father_n and_o have_v declare_v the_o secret_a counsel_n of_o god_n therefore_o be_v we_o to_o hear_v he_o matth._n 17.5_o as_o the_o

all_o that_o christ_n have_v from_o his_o father_n it_o come_v from_o love_n then_o how_o much_o more_o do_v all_o that_o which_o be_v in_o we_o come_v of_o love_n 2._o according_a to_o the_o love_n
