he_o that_o be_v join_v to_o the_o lord_n be_v one_o spirit_n either_o he_o understand_v it_o concern_v a_o substantial_a or_o a_o mystical_a oneness_n betwixt_o god_n and_o man_n if_o a_o

without_o dispute_n there_o be_v something_o increated_a in_o he_o and_o so_o equal_a with_o god_n howsoever_o the_o scripture_n which_o he_o allege_v will_v not_o bear_v he_o out_o therein_o not_o the_o former_a for_o it_o only_o speak_v of_o christ_n i_o and_o my_o father_n be_v one_o john_n 10.30_o in_o which_o chapter_n the_o lord_n christ_n labour_v to_o prove_v his_o equality_n with_o

also_o evident_a from_o his_o own_o confession_n for_o though_o he_o deni_v g._n fox_n as_o a_o creature_n to_o be_v equal_a with_o god_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o deny_v it_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o

6.17_o he_o make_v use_v of_o he_o that_o be_v join_v to_o the_o lord_n be_v one_o spirit_n will_v george_n compare_v this_o with_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o v._o 16._o for_o two_o say_v he_o shall_v be_v one_o flesh_n he_o will_v needs_o alter_v his_o mind_n for_o the_o apostle_n in_o these_o word_n allude_v to_o that_o onenes_n which_o be_v betwixt_o man_n and_o wife_n speak_v of_o gen._n 2.24_o

betwixt_o man_n and_o wife_n but_o who_o can_v say_v that_o the_o onenes_n betwixt_o man_n and_o wife_n be_v substantial_a and_o not_o mystical_a will_v any_o say_v that_o because_o the_o scripture_n do_v call_v they_o one_o even_o one_o flesh_n they_o do_v make_v up_o but_o one_o substance_n be_v it_o not_o evident_a notwithstanding_o this_o onenes_n that_o they_o be_v different_a and_o distinct_a substance_n so_o then_o see_v the_o scripture_n liken_v the_o onenes_n of_o saint_n with_o god_n thereto_o may_v not_o i_o just_o say_v that_o as_o god_n and_o saint_n be_v one_o i_o say_v as_o they_o be_v one_o so_o they_o be_v real_o and_o substantial_o distinct_a one_o from_o another_o and_o that_o the_o substance_n and_o essence_n of_o god_n be_v not_o unite_v to_o the_o creature_n but_o if_o at_o last_o george_n shall_v say_v that_o the_o oneness_n with_o god_n be_v only_o mystical_a and_o virtual_a i._n e._n in_o respect_n of_o god_n act_v and_o work_v in_o saint_n by_o the_o
