inward_a conception_n of_o my_o mind_n differ_v much_o from_o that_o which_o i_o raise_v or_o conceive_v within_o i_o when_o i_o consider_v of_o the_o mercy_n or_o wisdom_n of_o god_n etc._n etc._n

guilty_a of_o that_o presumption_n which_o he_o charge_v upon_o his_o adversary_n as_o we_o hear_v viz._n of_o affirm_v that_o of_o the_o unsearchable_a nature_n of_o god_n which_o he_o have_v not_o

and_o have_v nothing_o of_o weight_n or_o strength_n in_o it_o and_o what_o there_o be_v in_o it_o it_o be_v every_o whit_n as_o much_o against_o himself_o as_o those_o who_o he_o will_v seem_v to_o

be_v either_o something_o or_o nothing_o if_o nothing_o how_o can_v it_o be_v distinguish_v since_o nothing_o have_v no_o accident_n if_o something_o then_o either_o it_o be_v some_o finite_a or_o infinite_a thing_n if_o finite_a then_o there_o will_v be_v something_o finite_a in_o god_n and_o consequent_o since_o by_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o adversary_n themselves_o every_o thing_n in_o god_n be_v god_n himself_o god_n will_v be_v finite_a which_o the_o adversary_n themselves_o will_v likewise_o confess_v to_o be_v absurd_a if_o infinite_a then_o there_o will_v be_v two_o infinite_n in_o god_n to_o wit_v the_o person_n and_o essence_n of_o god_n and_o consequent_o two_o god_n which_o be_v more_o absurd_a than_o the_o former_a this_o be_v the_o account_n of_o his_o second_o reason_n against_o the_o oft_o mention_a distinction_n but_o that_o this_o also_o be_v of_o the_o same_o calculation_n with_o the_o former_a and_o have_v as_o little_a in_o it_o as_o that_o and_o that_o which_o it_o have_v be_v as_o much_o against_o himself_o as_o his_o adversary_n may_v be_v make_v ready_o to_o appear_v for_o first_o whereas_o he_o reason_v thus_o if_o the_o person_n be_v distinguish_v from_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n than_o it_o be_v either_o something_o or_o nothing_o there_o be_v no_o great_a weight_n either_o of_o learning_n or_o understanding_n in_o the_o proposition_n for_o first_o in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o this_o proposition_n if_o the_o person_n be_v distinct_a from_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n he_o suppose_v the_o person_n to_o be_v somewhat_o otherwise_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o clause_n shall_v be_v this_o if_o nothing_o or_o that_o which_o be_v nothing_o be_v distinct_a from_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n which_o be_v ridiculous_a and_o yet_o have_v thus_o in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o proposition_n suppose_v it_o to_o be_v somewhat_o from_o this_o supposition_n in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o it_o he_o infer_v it_o to_o be_v either_o something_o or_o nothing_o who_o ever_o reason_v at_o such_o a_o rate_n as_o this_o if_o nothing_o be_v distinct_a from_o something_o then_o be_v it_o either_o something_o or_o nothing_o they_o that_o can_v make_v sense_n of_o this_o must_v have_v sharp_a understanding_n than_o i_o second_o let_v the_o word_n person_n
that_o the_o word_n god_n in_o such_o say_n as_o these_o can_v be_v take_v personal_o but_o of_o necessity_n must_v be_v take_v essential_o viz._n as_o signify_v the_o divine_a nature_n or_o essence_n wherein_o both_o person_n father_n and_o son_n do_v partake_v so_o that_o the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o this_o proposition_n be_v that_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n do_v subsist_v or_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o same_o divine_a nature_n and_o essence_n which_o divine_a nature_n or_o essence_n be_v sometime_o express_v by_o the_o word_n god_n so_o again_o when_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o spirit_n as_o joh._n 4.24_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v take_v personal_o as_o if_o the_o meaning_n be_v either_o that_o the_o father_n or_o the_o son_n or_o the_o spirit_n be_v a_o spirit_n for_o though_o it_o be_v true_a of_o every_o of_o they_o that_o they_o be_v spirit_n the_o father_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o so_o the_o son_n be_v a_o spirit_n yet_o that_o our_o saviour_n shall_v here_o affirm_v it_o determinate_o or_o particular_o of_o any_o one_o of_o they_o more_o than_o other_o no_o sufficient_a reason_n can_v be_v give_v therefore_o the_o meaning_n of_o our_o saviour_n say_v god_n be_v a_o spirit_n must_v needs_o be_v this_o that_o the_o divine_a nature_n and_o essence_n which_o be_v communicate_v to_o the_o three_o person_n or_o wherein_o the_o three_o person_n subsist_v and_o so_o be_v essential_o one_o and_o the_o same_o god_n that_o th●s_v nature_n and_o divine_a essence_n be_v spiritual_a immaterial_a and_o invisible_a and_o yet_o more_o plain_o rom._n 16.27_o where_o god_n be_v term_v only_o wise_a to_o god_n only_o wise_a be_v glory_n the_o word_n god_n be_v to_o be_v take_v essential_o because_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v here_o take_v personal_o viz._n for_o god_n the_o father_n which_o our_o adversary_n conceive_v and_o contend_v for_o with_o might_n and_o main_a affirm_v that_o to_o take_v god_n otherwise_o than_o personal_o be_v to_o take_v he_o otherwise_o than_o he_o be_v and_o to_o mistake_v he_o and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o acceptation_n of_o the_o word_n god_n in_o the_o scripture_n with_o the_o like_a but_o i_o say_v that_o in_o the_o place_n now_o before_o we_o to_o god_n only_o wise_a be_v glory_n the_o word_n god_n must_v needs_o be_v take_v essential_o and_o not_o personal_o be_v evident_a from_o hence_o because_o otherwise_o the_o apostle_n must_v suppose_v that_o neither_o christ_n nor_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v any_o wisdom_n in_o they_o or_o none_o considerable_a but_o god_n the_o father_n only_o which_o

be_v take_v essential_o but_o these_o few_o produce_v and_o insist_v on_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o proof_n thereof_o therefore_o the_o distinction_n of_o god_n take_v personal_o and_o essential_o be_v not_o a_o distinction_n unheard_a of_o in_o scripture_n as_o our_o adversary_n groundless_o affirm_v unless_o as_o we_o note_v before_o by_o be_v unheard_a of_o he_o mean_v in_o respect_n of_o
