intelligent_a essence_n or_o substance_n be_v equivalent_a term_n so_o that_o in_o say_v three_o person_n you_o say_v also_o three_o essence_n the_o ground_n of_o faustus_n socinus_n and_o which_o if_o true_a all_o man_n grant_v that_o his_o scheme_n also_o of_o religion_n will_v be_v true_a be_v that_o person_n and_o a_o particular_a intelligent_a substance_n be_v the_o same_o that_o as_o often_o as_o you_o multiply_v one_o you_o multiply_v the_o other_o from_o whence_o faustus_n conclude_v we_o must_v not_o say_v three_o divine_a person_n because_o it_o be_v a_o grant_n three_o divine_a substance_n or_o essence_n which_o will_v be_v three_o go_n lest_o dr._n sherlock_n shall_v deny_v that_o he_o take_v the_o same_o ground_n with_o faustus_n socinus_n and_o therefore_o that_o in_o consequence_n their_o scheme_n be_v coincident_a i_o will_v subjoin_v his_o very_a word_n a_o person_n and_o a_o intelligent_a substance_n be_v reciprocal_a term_n and_o three_o distinct_a

as_o some_o think_v will_v not_o see_v they_o a_o postscript_n by_o another_o hand_n this_o author_n have_v tell_v his_o reader_n p._n 7._o that_o dr._n sh._n have_v not_o indeed_o in_o this_o sermon_n declare_v express_o what_o kind_n of_o trinity_n he_o plead_v for_o but_o he_o intimate_v it_o and_o plain_o point_v to_o it_o at_o p._n 7_o &_o 10._o but_o beside_o what_o be_v there_o say_v for_o make_v know_v the_o dean_n doctrine_n of_o a_o trinity_n of_o spirit_n and_o substance_n i_o conceive_v it_o may_v give_v great_a evidence_n of_o it_o to_o cite_v a_o passage_n or_o two_o concern_v it_o out_o of_o his_o book_n the_o vindication_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o bless_a trinity_n etc._n etc._n where_o we_o find_v p._n 66._o it_o be_v plain_a the_o person_n be_v perfect_o distinct_a for_o they_o be_v three_o distinct_a and_o infinite_a mind_n to_o say_v they_o be_v three_o divine_a person_n and_o not_o three_o distinct_a infinite_a mind_n be_v both_o heresy_n and_o nonsense_n they_o be_v three_o intelligent_a being_n father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n be_v as_o real_o distinct_a person_n as_o peter_n james_n and_o john_n p._n 105._o they_o be_v three_o holy_a spirit_n p._n 258._o there_o be_v no_o contradiction_n that_o three_o infinite_a mind_n shall_v be_v absolute_o perfect_a in_o wisdom_n goodness_n justice_n and_o power_n for_o these_o be_v perfection_n that_o may_v be_v in_o more_o than_o one_o p._n 81._o and_o p._n 47._o we_o must_v allow_v the_o divine_a person_n to_o be_v real_a substantial_a being_n the_o three_o divine_a person_n be_v substantial_o distinct_a this_o now_o be_v that_o doctrine_n which_o dr._n sherlock_n must_v be_v understand_v to_o plead_v for_o in_o this_o sermon_n it_o be_v the_o mystery_n of_o this_o trinity_n of_o which_o he_o say_v p._n 12._o the_o inconceivableness_n can_v be_v no_o argument_n against_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o revelation_n or_o that_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n which_o contain_v such_o mystery_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n he_o say_v we_o must_v believe_v though_o we_o do_v not_o see_v thing_n which_o we_o have_v no_o natural_a notion_n or_o conception_n of_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o evident_a to_o natural_a reason_n the_o meaning_n be_v plain_o this_o we_o must_v believe_v his_o doctrine_n of_o three_o distinct_a and_o infinite_a mind_n and_o spirit_n however_o it_o do_v in_o our_o clear_a reason_n improve_v also_o by_o most_o evident_a revelation_n introduce_v the_o worship_n of_o three_o god_n for_o what_o be_v so_o evident_a both_o in_o reason_n and_o revelation_n as_o that_o god_n be_v one_o infinite_a mind_n and_o spirit_n and_o not_o three_o but_o dr._n sh._n have_v devise_v some_o pretty_a new_a term_n such_o as_o self-consciousness_n and_o mutual_a consciousness_n whereby_o to_o elude_v the_o testimony_n of_o holy_a scripture_n concern_v the_o perfect_a oneness_n of_o god_n but_o reason_n contradict_v he_o and_o will_v not_o suffer_v he_o to_o destroy_v that_o glorious_a attribute_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o unconceivable_a mystery_n she_o say_v it_o be_v not_o mystery_n but_o a_o plain_a inconsistency_n therefore_o dr._n sh._n will_v have_v her_o mouth_n stop_v or_o our_o ear_n stop_v that_o we_o may_v not_o hear_v what_o reason_n say_v though_o in_o consent_n with_o revelation_n or_o at_o least_o that_o we_o shall_v give_v no_o heed_n to_o what_o she_o say_v our_o author_n have_v tell_v we_o that_o the_o oxford-decree_n condemn_v this_o doctrine_n as_o impious_a and_o heretical_a contrary_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n and_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o if_o we_o will_v believe_v this_o preacher_n the_o oxford-head_n have_v pass_v that_o sentence_n because_o they_o give_v too_o much_o heed_n to_o natural_a reason_n and_o philosophy_n and_o exalt_v what_o those_o say_v even_o above_o revelation_n this_o bring_v to_o my_o mind_n what_o the_o late_a archbishop_n of_o bless_a memory_n determine_v in_o the_o dispute_n between_o reason_n and_o revelation_n dr._n sherlock_n do_v he_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o right_n in_o a_o sermon_n upon_o the_o sad_a occasion_n of_o his_o death_n i_o hope_v he_o will_v not_o now_o despise_v his_o judgement_n that_o great_a man_n upon_o 1_o john_n 4.1_o say_v 1._o that_o reason_n be_v the_o faculty_n whereby_o revelation_n be_v to_o be_v discern_v 2._o all_o supernatural_a revelation_n suppose_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o principle_n of_o natural_a religion_n 3._o all_o reason_v about_o divine_a revelation_n must_v necessary_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o principle_n of_o natural_a religion_n that_o be_v by_o those_o apprehension_n which_o man_n natural_o have_v of_o the_o divine_a perfection_n and_o by_o the_o clear_a notion_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a which_o be_v imprint_v upon_o our_o nature_n because_o we_o have_v no_o other_o way_n to_o judge_n of_o what_o be_v worthy_a of_o god_n and_o credible_a to_o be_v reveal_v by_o he_o and_o what_o not_o but_o by_o natural_a notion_n which_o we_o have_v of_o god_n and_o of_o his_o essential_a perfection_n and_o by_o these_o principle_n likewise_o we_o be_v to_o interpret_v what_o god_n have_v reveal_v and_o when_o any_o doubt_n arise_v concern_v the_o mean_v of_o any_o divine_a revelation_n as_o that_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n we_o be_v to_o govern_v ourselves_o in_o the_o interpretation_n of_o it_o by_o what_o be_v most_o agreeable_a to_o those_o natural_a notion_n which_o we_o have_v of_o god_n and_o we_o have_v all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n to_o reject_v that_o sense_n which_o be_v contrary_a thereto_o 4._o nothing_o ought_v to_o be_v receive_v as_o a_o revelation_n from_o god_n which_o plain_o contradict_v the_o principle_n of_o natural_a religion_n or_o overthrow_v the_o certainty_n of_o they_o under_o this_o head_n that_o excellent_a man_n conclude_v that_o a_o miracle_n be_v not_o enough_o to_o give_v credit_n to_o a_o prophet_n that_o teach_v any_o thing_n contrary_a to_o that_o natural_a notion_n which_o man_n have_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n who_o only_o ought_v to_o be_v worship_v thus_o we_o see_v that_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o late_a archbishop_n dr._n sherlock_n trinity_n will_v not_o be_v make_v credible_a though_o a_o miracle_n shall_v be_v wrought_v in_o testimony_n of_o it_o because_o it_o contradict_v the_o principle_n of_o natural_a religion_n that_o be_v of_o natural_a reason_n finis_fw-la
