the_o arian_n trinity_n be_v but_o of_o person_n all_o of_o they_o homogenial_a all_o of_o they_o eternal_a spiritual_a and_o uncreated_a they_o that_o shall_v deny_v this_o to_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o father_n will_v find_v themselves_o oblige_v to_o answer_v to_o two_o thing_n which_o be_v indeed_o fair_o and_o true_o unanswerable_a the_o first_o be_v why_o those_o father_n who_o contend_v for_o the_o homoousios_a consubstantial_a or_o of_o the_o same_o substance_n do_v yet_o express_o reject_v the_o tauto-ousios_a and_o mono-ousios_a or_o of_o the_o selfsame_a substance_n and_o essence_n in_o number_n the_o tauto-ousios_a and_o mono-ousios_a or_o of_o the_o selfsame_a essence_n or_o substance_n in_o number_n be_v the_o very_a doctrine_n of_o the_o school_n and_o modern_n but_o be_v deny_v by_o the_o father_n as_o mere_a sabellianism_n which_o invincible_o prove_v that_o by_o one_o and_o the_o same_o substance_n and_o essence_n they_o mean_v not_o one_o and_o the_o selfsame_a or_o one_o in_o number_n but_o one_o for_o kind_a nature_n or_o property_n second_o they_o must_v also_o satisfy_v the_o citation_n of_o d._n petavius_n and_o s._n curcellaeus_n and_o these_o in_o the_o intellectual_a system_n which_o do_v all_o of_o they_o several_o and_o much_o more_o conjunct_o clear_o show_v what_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o father_n be_v about_o homoousios_a and_o consubstantial_a it_o appear_v by_o this_o and_o abundance_n more_o the_o like_a that_o dr._n cudworth_n have_v the_o same_o apprehension_n concern_v the_o three_o divine_a person_n with_o dr._n sherlock_n they_o both_o apprehend_v the_o three_o person_n to_o be_v as_o distinct_a and_o different_a and_o as_o real_o three_o several_a intelligent_a being_n and_o substance_n as_o three_o angel_n be_v or_o as_o peter_n james_n and_o john_n be_v dr._n sherlock_n say_v they_o be_v however_o call_v one_o god_n because_o they_o be_v internal_o conscious_a to_o all_o one_o another_o thought_n and_o action_n but_o i_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o dr._n cudworth_n will_v have_v allow_v so_o much_o to_o the_o son_n and_o spirit_n as_o to_o be_v internal_o conscious_a to_o all_o the_o thought_n and_o action_n of_o the_o first_o person_n he_o always_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o every_o way_n inferior_a to_o the_o father_n he_o will_v not_o allow_v they_o to_o be_v omnipotent_a in_o any_o other_o respect_n but_o only_o external_o that_o be_v to_o say_v because_o the_o father_n concur_v omnipotent_o to_o all_o their_o external_a action_n whether_o of_o creation_n or_o providence_n dr._n cudworth_n desire_v to_o distinguish_v his_o explication_n from_o all_o other_o of_o the_o modern_n by_o this_o mark_n that_o it_o allow_v not_o the_o three_o person_n to_o be_v in_o any_o respect_n but_o duration_n coequal_a for_o say_v he_o three_o distinct_a intelligent_a nature_n or_o essence_n each_o of_o they_o pre-eternal_a self-existent_a and_o equal_o omnipotent_a ad_fw-la intra_fw-la be_v of_o necessity_n three_o god_n nor_o can_v we_o have_v any_o other_o notion_n of_o three_o god_n but_o if_o only_a the_o first_o person_n be_v indeed_o internal_o omnipotent_a and_o the_o other_o two_o subordinate_a in_o authority_n and_o power_n to_o he_o you_o leave_v then_o but_o one_o god_n only_o in_o three_o divine_a person_n this_o be_v dr._n cudworth_n explication_n every_o one_o will_v ready_o make_v this_o exception_n he_o think_v either_o that_o there_o be_v one_o great_a god_n and_o two_o lesser_a one_o or_o else_o only_o the_o first_o be_v true_a god_n and_o the_o other_o two_o in_o name_n only_o the_o doctor_n foresee_v without_o doubt_n this_o objection_n therefore_o see_v how_o he_o have_v endeavour_v to_o prevent_v it_o first_o he_o report_v some_o answer_n of_o the_o father_n to_o this_o difficulty_n which_o answer_v he_o express_o reject_v for_o some_o of_o they_o say_v that_o the_o three_o person_n be_v one_o god_n by_o their_o unity_n of_o will_n and_o

agree_v in_o one_o nature_n namely_o the_o eternal_a spiritual_a and_o self_n existent_a but_o dr._n cudworth_n confess_v that_o a_o union_n of_o will_n and_o affection_n be_v only_o a_o moral_a union_n not_o a_o physical_a or_o real_a unity_n and_o as_o three_o human_a person_n will_v be_v three_o distinct_a man_n notwithstanding_o the_o moral_a union_n in_o affection_n and_o will_n so_o also_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n will_v be_v three_o distinct_a god_n notwithstanding_o such_o a_o union_n in_o will_n and_o affection_n as_o to_o the_o other_o that_o the_o three_o person_n

be_v ready_a to_o fling_v it_o into_o the_o kennel_n at_o the_o first_o nod_n that_o the_o church_n shall_v make_v he_o can_v wonder_v that_o the_o socinian_o will_v handle_v it_o will_v look_v on_o
