god_n be_v of_o himself_o and_o can_v receive_v nothing_o from_o any_o answ._n it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o person_n consider_v according_a to_o their_o nature_n and_o substance_n which_o be_v common_a to_o all_o three_o and_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o in_o they_o all_o can_v beget_v nor_o be_v beget_v nor_o proceed_v one_o from_o another_o for_o if_o god_n absolute_o consider_v can_v beget_v as_o he_o be_v a_o absolute_a essence_n or_o be_v beget_v or_o proceed_v then_o there_o may_v be_v more_o god_n than_o one_o but_o a_o person_n or_o personal_a subsistence_n in_o that_o one_o simple_a essence_n of_o god_n may_v beget_v another_o person_n but_o not_o another_o god_n and_o may_v be_v beget_v and_o proceed_v not_o from_o the_o simple_a essence_n of_o god_n but_o from_o another_o person_n in_o that_o one_o essence_n wherefore_o the_o son_n be_v beget_v not_o as_o he_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o essence_n with_o the_o father_n but_o as_o he_o be_v another_o person_n in_o that_o essence_n and_o so_o the_o holy_a ghost_n proceed_v from_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n as_o he_o be_v another_o person_n in_o the_o same_o essence_n and_o so_o jehovah_n the_o true_a god_n do_v proceed_v from_o none_o nor_o receive_v any_o thing_n from_o any_o but_o a_o person_n which_o subsist_v in_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n and_o be_v jehovah_n the_o true_a god_n receive_v subsistence_n from_o another_o person_n in_o the_o same_o essence_n quest_n i_o see_v you_o do_v right_o conceive_v of_o god_n the_o creator_n both_o in_o the_o unity_n of_o his_o essence_n and_o in_o the_o trinity_n of_o person_n now_o tell_v i_o which_o of_o the_o three_o person_n create_v the_o world_n answ._n though_o the_o father_n be_v call_v the_o creator_n of_o who_o be_v all_o
