A14095 A discovery of D. Iacksons vanitie. Or A perspective glasse, wherby the admirers of D. Iacksons profound discourses, may see the vanitie and weaknesse of them, in sundry passages, and especially so farre as they tende to the undermining of the doctrine hitherto received. Written by William Twisse, Doctor of Divinitie, as they say, from whom the copie came to the presse Twisse, William, 1578?-1646. 1631 (1631) STC 24402; ESTC S118777 563,516 728

do_v as_o significant_o represent_v the_o want_n of_o passion_n in_o god_n as_o the_o swift_a motion_n of_o the_o heaven_n do_v represent_v god_n immutability_n like_a unto_o he_o that_o present_v a_o

of_o all_o passion_n in_o god_n your_o mathematics_n though_o i_o profess_v myself_o a_o very_a sorry_a scholar_n in_o that_o science_n i_o do_v reasonable_o well_o understand_v as_o namely_o that_o

explication_n 3._o the_o analogy_n speak_v of_o between_o side_n and_o angle_n as_o find_v in_o circle_n and_o other_o figure_n do_v fit_o express_a you_o say_v that_o analogy_n which_o school_n divine_v assign_v between_o wisdom_n science_n love_n hatred_n goodness_n desire_n as_o they_o be_v find_v in_o god_n and_o man_n your_o theme_n be_v how_o anger_n love_n compassion_n mercy_n or_o other_o affection_n be_v in_o the_o divine_a nature_n of_o all_o these_o there_o be_v but_o one_o find_v in_o this_o latter_a enumeration_n of_o you_o and_o that_o be_v love_n and_o whereas_o you_o

affection_n no_o name_n or_o title_n of_o affection_n can_v you_o say_v be_v univocal_o attribute_v unto_o god_n and_o this_o be_v true_a and_o as_o true_a of_o habit_n and_o power_n of_o our_o soul_n that_o they_o can_v univocal_o be_v attribute_v unto_o god_n for_o whatsoever_o be_v in_o god_n be_v mere_a essence_n and_o therefore_o such_o title_n as_o signify_v accident_n in_o we_o can_v denominate_v god_n secundum_fw-la nomen_fw-la &_o nominis_fw-la rationem_fw-la but_o as_o we_o love_v by_o a_o act_n of_o passion_n so_o god_n may_v love_v by_o a_o act_n which_o be_v his_o essence_n our_o will_n and_o understanding_n be_v accident_n yet_o do_v god_n as_o true_o will_n and_o understand_v as_o we_o by_o his_o very_a essence_n not_o by_o any_o act_n which_o be_v real_o distinguish_v from_o his_o essence_n god_n love_n god_n wrath_n be_v mere_o his_o will_n to_o do_v good_a or_o to_o revenge_v evil_a as_o they_o signify_v any_o thing_n within_o god_n but_o if_o they_o be_v use_v as_o external_a denomination_n so_o when_o god_n punish_v we_o he_o be_v say_v to_o be_v angry_a with_o we_o when_o he_o do_v we_o good_a he_o be_v say_v to_o love_v we_o and_o in_o the_o like_a sense_n may_v every_o name_n of_o any_o affection_n be_v attribute_v unto_o god_n provide_v it_o do_v not_o essential_o imply_v any_o imperfection_n as_o fear_n do_v and_o desire_n do_v which_o can_v be_v attribute_v unto_o god_n but_o metaphorical_o the_o fruit_n of_o love_n &_o compassion_n proceed_v from_o none_o so_o free_o so_o plenteous_o as_o from_o god_n and_o therefore_o he_o may_v just_o be_v say_v to_o be_v most_o love_v most_o compassionate_a but_o to_o who_o he_o will_n in_o like_a sort_n the_o fruit_n of_o wrath_n and_o a_o revenge_a will_n proceed_v from_o none_o more_o

into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n therefore_o may_v he_o just_o be_v account_v a_o most_o severe_a regenger_n of_o iniquity_n but_o on_o who_o he_o will_v for_o he_o can_v pardon_v it_o and_o cure_v it_o in_o who_o he_o will_v these_o be_v but_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o he_o have_v mercy_n on_o who_o he_o will_n but_o to_o say_v he_o be_v whole_o love_n and_o whole_o displeasure_n be_v a_o wild_a expression_n in_o my_o conceit_n for_o to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v whole_o love_n be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v that_o whatsoever_o he_o be_v be_v love_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o see_v he_o be_v displeasure_n also_o as_o you_o say_v his_o very_a displeasure_n be_v love_n and_o consequent_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n his_o very_a love_n be_v his_o displeasure_n the_o truth_n be_v affection_n in_o we_o belong_v only_o to_o the_o will_n and_o so_o translate_v unto_o god_n they_o shall_v only_o denominate_v his_o will_n now_o his_o power_n his_o understanding_n his_o will_n be_v very_o distinct_a notion_n though_o in_o god_n they_o be_v not_o real_o distinct_a yet_o so_o far_o distinct_a as_o that_o it_o seem_v absurd_a to_o say_v that_o his_o power_n be_v his_o will_n or_o his_o wisdom_n or_o that_o his_o wisdom_n be_v his_o will_n or_o his_o power_n or_o that_o his_o will_n be_v either_o his_o power_n or_o wisdom_n so_o you_o speak_v truth_n we_o be_v content_a you_o take_v what_o liberty_n you_o think_v good_a in_o the_o illustration_n of_o it_o and_o to_o satisfy_v yourself_o with_o your_o illustration_n though_o your_o reader_n you_o do_v not_o i_o find_v

your_o discourse_n who_o here_o and_o there_o inculcate_v foul_a error_n in_o divinity_n &_o that_o depend_v sometime_o upon_o these_o or_o such_o like_a metaphysical_a contemplation_n some_o therefore_o argue_v thus_o if_o there_o be_v any_o accident_n in_o god_n then_o there_o shall_v be_v some_o essence_n common_a unto_o god_n with_o complete_a substance_n create_v to_o wit_n a_o

god_n as_o the_o genus_fw-la be_v common_o account_v in_o nature_n before_o the_o species_n thereof_o and_o further_o it_o seem_v that_o if_o any_o genericall_a nature_n be_v common_a to_o god_n and_o we_o than_o some_o part_n of_o god_n essence_n shall_v be_v find_v in_o we_o and_o some_o part_n of_o our_o essence_n shall_v be_v find_v in_o god_n like_a as_o the_o essence_n of_o animalitie_n be_v common_a unto_o man_n &_o beast_n be_v find_v both_o in_o man_n and_o beast_n and_o consequent_o god_n creatinge_v substance_n shall_v create_v in_o part_n a_o certain_a common_a essence_n which_o be_v find_v in_o himself_o and_o so_o the_o self_n same_o essence_n shall_v be_v both_o the_o creator_n and_o the_o creature_n if_o to_o avoid_v these_o dangerous_a consequence_n it_o be_v reply_v that_o to_o support_v accident_n be_v not_o of_o any_o essential_a denomination_n but_o accidental_a as_o great_a absurdity_n seem_v to_o follow_v on_o that_o part_n also_o for_o if_o to_o support_v accident_n be_v a_o accident_n this_o make_v way_n to_o a_o progress_n in_o insinitum_fw-la without_o end_n for_o even_o this_o supportation_n of_o accident_n if_o it_o be_v a_o accident_n must_v be_v support_v by_o a_o substance_n and_o so_o without_o end_n again_o if_o to_o support_v accident_n be_v a_o accident_n it_o must_v either_o flow_v from_o substance_n in_o case_n it_o be_v a_o accident_n proper_a or_o be_v bring_v from_o without_o by_o some_o agent_n if_o it_o be_v a_o accident_n common_a this_o latter_a can_v be_v admit_v in_o respect_n of_o god_n if_o the_o former_a be_v than_o there_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v some_o common_a essence_n both_o to_o god_n and_o other_o substance_n whence_o this_o accident_n flow_v and_o then_o we_o be_v where_o we_o be_v another_o argument_n may_v be_v conceive_v thus_o it_o be_v common_o receive_v that_o every_o substance_n be_v more_o noble_a and_o of_o great_a dignity_n than_o any_o accident_n and_o therefore_o if_o accident_n be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o god_n some_o thing_n shall_v be_v find_v in_o god_n more_o ignoble_a than_o his_o creature_n if_o accident_n be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o god_n then_o either_o they_o shall_v denote_v entity_n of_o perfection_n or_o imperfection_n impossible_a it_o be_v that_o any_o entity_n of_o perfection_n shall_v be_v find_v in_o god_n for_o deus_fw-la est_fw-la quo_fw-la nihil_fw-la

to_o the_o power_n of_o receavinge_v it_o but_o there_o can_v be_v no_o power_n passive_a in_o god_n for_o as_o much_o as_o passive_a power_n be_v always_o perfect_v by_o the_o act_n and_o so_o the_o

further_o aristotle_n himself_o that_o great_a naturalist_n have_v acknowledge_v the_o first_o mover_n to_o be_v his_o life_n and_o his_o intelligence_n yet_o consider_v in_o reason_n if_o god_n essence_n and_o existence_n be_v all_o one_o how_o much_o more_o his_o understand_a faculty_n and_o his_o actual_a intelligence_n for_o a_o understand_a faculty_n can_v easy_o produce_v the_o act_n of_o understanding_n but_o essence_n can_v give_v itself_o existence_n but_o essence_n and_o existence_n in_o god_n be_v all_o one_o for_o if_o they_o be_v not_o then_o either_o his_o existence_n
