ghost_n otherways_o distinguish_v but_o by_o generation_n and_o procession_n and_o if_o the_o son_n be_v the_o wisdom_n and_o knowledge_n of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o love_n

which_o image_n be_v lose_v by_o sin_n be_v restore_v again_o by_o christ_n and_o that_o man_n body_n be_v make_v of_o earth_n but_o his_o soul_n of_o nothing_o and_o not_o of_o the_o heaven_n or_o

the_o faculty_n of_o his_o soul_n be_v natural_a and_o his_o body_n be_v sensible_a for_o as_o the_o evil_a of_o pain_n be_v apprehend_v by_o the_o outward_a sense_n of_o touch_v so_o be_v the_o

apprehension_n of_o future_a evil_n but_o not_o as_o it_o include_v either_o the_o incertainty_n of_o the_o event_n or_o the_o perturbation_n of_o reason_n for_o the_o one_o presuppose_v ignorance_n the_o other_o sin_n 3._o there_o be_v in_o he_o also_o the_o anger_n of_o zeal_n which_o proceed_v of_o justice_n but_o not_o the_o anger_n of_o revenge_n arise_v from_o sin_n or_o of_o the_o perturbation_n of_o reason_n 8_o we_o may_v with_o a_o clear_a conscience_n believe_v that_o christ_n have_v two_o will_n other_o way_n he_o can_v not_o have_v have_v two_o nature_n notwithstanding_o apollinarius_n einychus_n and_o onefurious_a maintain_v the_o contrary_a for_o a_o intelligent_a nature_n can_v be_v perfect_a without_o the_o will_n therefore_o as_o god_n his_o will_n be_v divine_a as_o man_n his_o will_n be_v human_a but_o as_o he_o be_v man_n he_o be_v also_o a_o sensitive_a creature_n therefore_o not_o only_o have_v he_o a_o rational_a will_n but_o also_o a_o sensitive_a appetite_n by_o this_o he_o will_v the_o cup_n to_o pass_v from_o he_o by_o that_o he_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n here_o be_v a_o diversite_a of_o will_n but_o no_o contradiction_n because_o it_o be_v not_o secundum_fw-la idem_fw-la 9_o we_o may_v safe_o believe_v that_o mary_n the_o mother_n of_o christ_n lose_v not_o her_o virginity_n neither_o before_o nor_o in_o nor_o after_o the_o conception_n for_o otherwise_o this_o can_v not_o have_v stand_v either_o with_o the_o dignity_n of_o the_o father_n that_o send_v he_o nor_o of_o the_o son_n that_o be_v send_v nor_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o conceive_v he_o nor_o yet_o with_o the_o end_n of_o christ_n incarnation_n which_o be_v to_o make_v we_o the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o a_o pure_a and_o virgin_n like_o regeneration_n 10_o we_o may_v safe_o believe_v that_o mary_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o god_n though_o not_o of_o the_o godhead_n because_o she_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o that_o person_n who_o be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n for_o this_o cause_n there_o be_v in_o christ_n but_o one_o filiation_n if_o we_o look_v upon_o the_o subject_a or_o person_n but_o two_o filiation_n if_o we_o respect_v the_o two_o nature_n 11_o we_o may_v safe_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o own_o death_n because_o he_o do_v not_o hinder_v it_o when_o he_o may_v either_o by_o suppress_v his_o persecutor_n or_o withdraw_v himself_o from_o they_o or_o by_o immortalise_a his_o body_n but_o he_o be_v accessary_a to_o his_o own_o death_n indirect_o only_a and_o without_o sin_n that_o by_o it_o he_o may_v destroy_v sin_n and_o death_n and_o he_o that_o have_v the_o power_n of_o death_n 12_o we_o may_v believe_v safe_o that_o though_o in_o christ_n death_n and_o burial_n the_o soul_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o body_n yet_o his_o divinity_n be_v not_o separate_v either_o from_o the_o soul_n or_o the_o body_n for_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n be_v irrevocable_a and_o without_o repentance_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o this_o hypostatical_a union_n be_v the_o great_a of_o all_o god_n gift_n therefore_o all_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o grave_n but_o not_o whole_o totus_fw-la sed_fw-la non_fw-la totaliter_fw-la because_o neither_o the_o body_n nor_o the_o soul_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o person_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n 13_o we_o must_v believe_v that_o christ_n rise_v the_o three_o day_n with_o the_o scar_n of_o those_o wound_n which_o he_o receive_v in_o his_o passion_n both_o to_o confirm_v the_o truth_n of_o his_o resurrection_n and_o by_o they_o to_o make_v intercession_n to_o his_o father_n for_o we_o for_o they_o be_v as_o so_o many_o powerful_a orator_n employ_v by_o our_o intercessor_n to_o plead_v for_o we_o beside_o they_o be_v honourable_a badge_n of_o his_o victory_n and_o love_v token_n of_o his_o true_a affection_n towards_o we_o and_o mark_n of_o his_o enemy_n implacable_a malice_n 14_o we_o must_v believe_v that_o christ_n ascend_v above_o all_o heaven_n not_o by_o his_o own_o power_n that_o be_v of_o his_o human_a nature_n yet_o by_o his_o own_o power_n that_o be_v of_o his_o divinity_n and_o though_o it_o be_v against_o the_o nature_n of_o his_o earthly_a body_n to_o ascend_v it_o be_v not_o against_o the_o nature_n of_o his_o body_n as_o it_o be_v the_o body_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o as_o it_o be_v glorify_v to_o ascend_v and_o this_o he_o do_v that_o he_o may_v prepare_v a_o place_n for_o we_o that_o from_o thence_o as_o our_o king_n sit_v on_o his_o throne_n he_o may_v give_v gift_n unto_o man_n as_o our_o high_a priest_n he_o may_v enter_v into_o the_o holy_a place_n to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o and_o as_o our_o prophet_n he_o may_v by_o send_v his_o spirit_n from_o thence_o inward_o instruct_v we_o 15_o we_o must_v believe_v that_o christ_n sit_v on_o god_n right-hand_n not_o as_o man_n only_o by_o be_v hypostatical_o unite_v to_o the_o divinity_n but_o as_o god_n also_o by_o eternal_a generation_n enjoy_v the_o same_o glory_n felicity_n and_o power_n with_o the_o father_n from_o eternity_n therefore_o although_o the_o humanity_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o to_o be_v honour_v with_o divine_a worship_n yet_o the_o man_n christ_n be_v to_o be_v adore_v as_o be_v unite_v to_o god_n the_o word_n humanity_n intimate_v the_o nature_n but_o the_o word_n man_n the_o whole_a person_n because_o of_o the_o hypostatical_a union_n 16_o we_o must_v believe_v that_o christ_n be_v judge_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o dead_a not_o as_o god_n only_o but_o as_o man_n also_o for_o as_o in_o both_o nature_n he_o be_v our_o mediator_n and_o head_n of_o the_o church_n so_o in_o both_o he_o be_v our_o judge_n and_o as_o in_o his_o human_a nature_n he_o be_v judge_v by_o the_o world_n so_o in_o the_o same_o nature_n he_o shall_v judge_v the_o world_n and_o because_o no_o man_n have_v see_v god_n at_o any_o time_n and_o the_o judge_n shall_v be_v visible_a therefore_o it_o be_v fit_a that_o christ_n in_o the_o
