and_o be_v so_o the_o true_a god_n the_o god_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n the_o god_n who_o deliver_v the_o law_n upon_o mount_n sinai_n for_o though_o we_o do_v acknowledge_v in_o the_o

the_o son_n yet_o those_o three_o person_n be_v but_o one_o god_n nor_o do_v i_o know_v any_o other_o true_a god_n but_o one_o the_o god_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n the_o lord_n jehovah_n the_o god_n of_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n the_o lord_n god_n of_o israel_n the_o lord_n their_o god_n who_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n out_o of_o the_o house_n of_o

christ_n be_v as_o to_o his_o divinity_n this_o god_n the_o true_a god_n the_o only_a true_a god_n and_o that_o he_o be_v so_o before_o his_o incarnation_n how_o far_o each_o of_o those_o action_n be_v to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o this_o or_o that_o person_n of_o the_o trinity_n we_o need_v not_o be_v over_o solicitous_a what_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v more_o peculiar_o ascribe_v to_o

the_o trinity_n be_v then_o not_o so_o distinct_o discover_v but_o i_o can_v agree_v that_o christ_n as_o god_n and_o man_n in_o contradistinction_n to_o the_o father_n and_o holy_a ghost_n do_v all_o those_o thing_n for_o he_o be_v not_o then_o man._n i_o agree_v with_o he_o also_o that_o god_n who_o make_v the_o world_n in_o six_o day_n rest_v the_o seven_o day_n gen._n 2._o 23._o exod._n 20._o

seven_o day_n of_o holy_a rest_n and_o this_o in_o a_o continue_a succession_n but_o i_o shall_v rather_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v according_a to_o his_o divinity_n that_o god_n who_o bless_v the_o seven_o day_n gen._n 2._o than_o that_o the_o god_n who_o bless_v the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o do_v p._n 64._o and_o elsewhere_o very_a often_o seem_v to_o lay_v great_a stress_n upon_o it_o for_o he_o be_v not_o then_o the_o lord_n christ_n god_n and_o man_n nor_o do_v he_o bless_v it_o as_o christ_n but_o as_o god_n in_o union_n with_o the_o father_n and_o holy_a ghost_n not_o as_o contradistinguish_v from_o they_o i_o agree_v also_o that_o the_o law_n of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v one_o of_o the_o decalogue_n or_o ten_o
