than_o to_o take_v error_n and_o hercsy_n for_o grant_v consider_v sir_n church_n have_v err_v and_o may_v err_v yea_o in_o matter_n of_o faith_n too_o if_o so_o who_o be_v to_o be_v blame_v he_o

to_o be_v blame_v as_o you_o but_o if_o we_o only_o set_v up_o we_o to_o confute_v the_o uncharitableness_n of_o you_o wherein_o do_v we_o trespass_v you_o say_v we_o be_v heretic_n and_o have_v no_o understanding_n and_o whence_o come_v you_o to_o judge_v thus_o free_o of_o we_o and_o not_o we_o of_o you_o so_o you_o say_v we_o blaspheme_v but_o pray_v be_v not_o your_o charge_n precarious_a and_o if_o retort_v fall_v it_o not_o as_o heavy_a on_o yourself_o if_o we_o err_v indeed_o we_o blaspheme_v the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n which_o we_o hope_v we_o do_v not_o but_o if_o you_o err_v do_v not_o you_o both_o blaspheme_v and_o commit_v idolatry_n in_o worship_v they_o as_o coequal_a to_o the_o father_n but_o sir_n we_o desire_v to_o have_v a_o charity_n for_o your_o

what_o do_v you_o expect_v man_n shall_v have_v no_o conscience_n or_o resentment_n for_o truth_n if_o you_o do_v not_o do_v not_o fetter_v they_o thus_o you_o know_v it_o be_v no_o argument_n of_o

therefore_o to_o let_v natural_a religion_n lead_v our_o revelation_n else_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v fall_v upon_o we_o and_o though_o we_o have_v eye_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v

that_o there_o be_v one_o god_n but_o that_o he_o exist_v in_o three_o person_n father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o these_o three_o person_n be_v coequal_a and_o coeternal_a and_o by_o

make_v the_o father_n alone_o to_o personate_v the_o true_a god_n the_o son_n to_o become_v incarnate_a to_o redeem_v we_o to_o his_o mercy_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n under_o the_o son_n to_o assist_v we_o through_o grace_n in_o his_o trial_n the_o arrian_n believe_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n and_o that_o he_o exist_v but_o in_o one_o person_n that_o the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n be_v neither_o coequal_a nor_o coeternal_a with_o he_o that_o he_o first_o make_v the_o son_n and_o through_o he_o frame_v the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o angel_n that_o some_o of_o the_o angel_n

the_o world_n through_o a_o joint_a providence_n but_o that_o their_o dominion_n be_v subordinate_a and_o adequate_a to_o their_o power_n thus_o that_o the_o father_n alone_o be_v the_o true_a god_n that_o the_o son_n become_v incarnate_a to_o satisfy_v god_n justice_n to_o redeem_v his_o creation_n and_o to_o destroy_v the_o devil_n malice_n in_o adam_n that_o the_o son_n have_v depute_v the_o

and_o scripture-interpretation_n be_v so_o much_o as_o urge_v to_o explain_v and_o bring_v forth_o a_o trinity_n my_o reflection_n upon_o these_o principle_n shall_v be_v only_o two_o and_o they_o be_v as_o follow_v first_o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o trinity_n have_v alter_v the_o first_o and_o great_a commandment_n as_o it_o be_v by_o chance_n and_o whereas_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n in_o such_o a_o case_n will_v certain_o allow_v we_o a_o solemn_a repeal_n the_o athanasian_n creed_n be_v so_o far_o from_o such_o mercy_n that_o it_o make_v this_o very_a catch_n penal_a of_o

several_o second_o you_o see_v hereby_o this_o great_a mystery_n be_v not_o purposely_o require_v but_o accidental_o enforce_v so_o that_o whether_o this_o inscrutable_a mystery_n and_o incomprehensible_a hypothesis_n be_v a_o divine_a truth_n or_o not_o yet_o at_o least_o this_o be_v plain_a the_o mean_n of_o know_v it_o be_v humane_a and_o consequent_o the_o whole_a mystery_n itsself_fw-mi disputable_a and_o leave_v to_o the_o understanding_n of_o man_n to_o examine_v now_o whether_o the_o little_a ground_n man_n pretend_v to_o for_o the_o support_n of_o this_o mystery_n be_v sufficient_a or_o not_o be_v what_o i_o have_v undertake_v to_o disprove_v in_o answer_n to_o you_o by_o this_o follow_a treatise_n
so_o that_o though_o there_o be_v but_o one_o supreme_a god_n the_o father_n yet_o he_o have_v constitute_v the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n two_o deputy_n 15._o under_o he_o call_v the_o son_n a_o angel_n in_o this_o deputation_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n 9_o and_o on_o this_o foundation_n stand_v those_o expression_n let_v we_o make_v man_n etc._n etc._n 7._o and_o thus_o through_o the_o son_n it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v say_v to_o have_v access_n by_o one_o spirit_n to_o the_o father_n 5._o and_o thus_o it_o be_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o s●tan_n the_o e●●l_n god_n 44._o be_v in_o we_o like_o two_o contrary_a prompt_v and_o rule_v power_n 12._o thus_o it_o be_v that_o the_o son_n as_o governor_n under_o the_o father_n of_o these_o two_o lesser_a god_n administer_v the_o gift_n of_o the_o one_o 13._o and_o restrain_v the_o temptation_n of_o the_o other_o 13._o whilst_o they_o be_v in_o a_o perpetual_a war_n in_o we_o that_o be_v all_o mankind_n at_o once_o 26._o one_o help_v we_o the_o other_o tempt_v we_o one_o comfort_v we_o and_o the_o other_o accuse_v we_o one_o have_v seven_o the_o number_n of_o perfection_n attribute_v to_o he_o 3._o as_o likewise_o have_v the_o other_o and_o thus_o you_o be_v to_o understand_v the_o text_n of_o a_o universal_a good_a angel_n 10._o and_o a_o universal_a evil_a one_o 9_o and_o though_o some_o have_v think_v both_o satan_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n rather_o name_n of_o order_n of_o spirit_n than_o god-angel_n cite_v 10._o for_o it_o yet_o it_o be_v plain_a by_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o scripture_n that_o those_o place_n more_o rational_o aught_o to_o be_v understand_v that_o those_o god_n have_v principality_n and_o angel_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v sometime_o employ_v by_o they_o in_o office_n under_o they_o if_o you_o desire_v to_o see_v this_o matter_n more_o ample_o argue_v you_o must_v read_v mr._n bidell_n twelve_o argument_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o when_o he_o have_v make_v the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o considerable_a as_o he_o do_v i_o wonder_v how_o he_o can_v continue_v a_o socinian_n long_o for_o the_o scripture_n so_o plain_o set_v the_o son_n above_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o tell_v we_o that_o all_o power_n be_v give_v to_o the_o son_n both_o in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n which_o he_o can_v possible_o otherwise_o manage_v that_o i_o admire_v he_o do_v not_o turn_v arrian_n throughout_o but_o to_o return_v this_o order_n of_o god_n administration_n through_o the_o son_n and_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n appear_v more_o plain_o when_o we_o consider_v their_o gradative_a style_n in_o scripture_n and_o the_o apostle_n creed_n thus_o the_o father_n only_o be_v call_v god_n in_o our_o creed_n as_o only_o be_v so_o the_o son_n call_v lord_n as_o he_o only_o real_o be_v so_o under_o he_o 1_o cor._n 8._o 5_o 6._o and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o spirit_n only_o style_v holy_a in_o opposition_n to_o the_o evil_a one._n and_o thus_o the_o divine_a benefit_n we_o receive_v as_o from_o the_o father_n be_v call_v love_n and_o operation_n from_o the_o son_n grace_n and_o administration_n but_o from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o lesser_a power_n only_a gift_n and_o fellowship_n 1_o cor._n 12._o 4_o 5_o 6._o 2_o cor._n 13._o 14._o and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o all_o communication_n between_o the_o father_n and_o holy_a ghost_n be_v through_o the_o son_n prophecy_n cease_v while_o the_o son_n be_v incarnate_a next_o unto_o these_o as_o i_o have_v say_v succeed_v principality_n power_n and_o dominion_n now_o these_o by_o their_o very_a name_n show_v themselves_o to_o be_v as_o lesser_a deputy_n that_o be_v as_o governor_n of_o province_n and_o kingdom_n under_o the_o god_n of_o the_o world_n the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o satan_n and_o for_o these_o and_o their_o office_n you_o may_v see_v dan._n 10._o 12_o 13_o 20_o 21_o 12._o 1._o act_n 16._o 9_o last_o as_o for_o angel_n i_o need_v say_v nothing_o of_o they_o see_v their_o name_n declare_v their_o office_n and_o the_o scripture_n abound_v with_o example_n of_o their_o perform_v they_o thus_o a_o angel_n come_v to_o the_o virgin_n mary_n to_o cornelius_n and_o several_z other_o so_o that_o of_o this_o enough_o and_o if_o any_o thing_n remain_v it_o must_v be_v to_o explain_v the_o reasonableness_n of_o there_o hierarchy_n reflection_n i_o say_v therefore_o when_o we_o think_v to_o reason_n of_o spirit_n we_o must_v free_o allow_v ourselves_o a_o open_a and_o generous_a source_n of_o thought_n for_o as_o the_o air_n and_o much_o more_o they_o be_v too_o fine_a for_o the_o gross_a casement_n of_o our_o eye_n so_o if_o we_o design_v due_o to_o examine_v their_o nature_n we_o must_v be_v able_a to_o walk_v without_o sense_n a_o little_a and_o not_o think_v to_o grope_v gross_o after_o they_o as_o if_o we_o will_v feel_v they_o first_o then_o i_o lay_v it_o down_o as_o a_o rule_n that_o spirit_n be_v immortal_a and_o have_v no_o need_n of_o any_o nourishment_n nor_o do_v nor_o need_v we_o doubt_v this_o when_o we_o consider_v even_o how_o the_o sun_n have_v subsist_v how_o his_o unwearied_a ray_n impair_v he_o not_o and_o how_o so_o many_o thousand_o year_n have_v not_o exhaust_v his_o source_n of_o glow_a fuel_n 2_o lie_v to_o this_o i_o must_v add_v that_o i_o can_v but_o believe_v that_o like_a unto_o cloud_n in_o the_o air_n they_o gradual_o subsist_v in_o each_o other_o by_o the_o proportional_a purity_n of_o each_o other_o substance_n nor_o need_v this_o be_v strange_a to_o we_o for_o this_o be_v evident_a that_o god_n at_o least_o exist_v in_o all_o of_o they_o and_o rule_v they_o as_o easy_o as_o they_o by_o his_o permission_n can_v we_o and_o if_o so_o what_o hinder_v but_o that_o he_o may_v have_v deputy-god_n to_o do_v the_o like_a under_o he_o nor_o can_v it_o well_o be_v otherwise_o than_o that_o they_o shall_v rule_v one_o another_o thus_o through_o their_o gradual_a purity_n and_o inexistency_n for_o when_o we_o consider_v that_o devil_n be_v entire_o wicked_a and_o be_v not_o to_o be_v rule_v otherwise_o than_o through_o a_o real_a force_n there_o remain_v no_o doubt_n but_o that_o as_o they_o be_v in_o subjection_n to_o one_o another_o so_o it_o be_v through_o such_o a_o real_a force_n as_o this_o that_o neither_o art_n nor_o conspiracy_n can_v destroy_v but_o yet_o after_o all_o this_o methinks_v i_o hear_v hear_v you_o object_n that_o this_o be_v difficult_a to_o conceive_v that_o any_o creature_n shall_v be_v of_o so_o extensive_a a_o power_n and_o yet_o why_o so_o do_v not_o the_o sun_n do_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o the_o sensible_a and_o vegetable_a world_n and_o shall_v we_o think_v as_o general_a a_o power_n in_o a_o spirit_n that_o as_o easy_o pierce_v the_o thick_a body_n as_o he_o do_v the_o air_n impossible_a nay_o or_o so_o much_o as_o difficult_a in_o the_o rational_a world_n but_o what_o we_o know_v not_o how_o it_o be_v do_v no_o more_o we_o know_v not_o how_o god_n and_o our_o own_o spirit_n exist_v within_o we_o to_o conclude_v i_o shall_v only_o add_v that_o this_o be_v once_o grant_v there_o remain_v no_o difficulty_n to_o imagine_v how_o all_o our_o
