design_n of_o these_o sheet_n it_o will_v easy_o appear_v to_o all_o that_o have_v see_v the_o late_a print_n between_o the_o trinitarian_n and_o unitarian_n that_o the_o question_n controvert_v between_o we_o be_v manage_v here_o on_o another_o foot_n as_o they_o speak_v in_o another_o method_n and_o by_o different_a argument_n than_o in_o foreign_a part_n or_o by_o the_o latin_a writer_n among_o other_o remark_n that_o we_o have_v make_v and_o urge_v the_o english_a unitarian_n show_v that_o their_o opposer_n do_v indeed_o all_o go_v under_o the_o common_a name_n of_o trinitarian_n but_o be_v in_o truth_n a_o great_a many_o several_a and_o contrary_a sect_n they_o all_o cast_v up_o their_o cap_n and_o cry_v trinity_n trinity_n but_o the_o idea_n they_o have_v of_o the_o

more_o learned_a and_o far_o great_a number_n of_o they_o i_o mean_v hereby_o the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n be_v one_o party_n with_o us._n as_o much_o as_o the_o socinian_o be_v clamour_v on_o for_o abominable_a intolerable_a heretic_n there_o be_v nothing_o more_o certain_a than_o that_o the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n who_o be_v true_o and_o proper_o the_o church_n and_o who_o be_v by_o much_o the_o majority_n of_o christian_n be_v altogether_o in_o the_o same_o sentiment_n concern_v almighty_a god_n and_o the_o person_n of_o our_o saviour_n that_o we_o be_v this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o point_n that_o i_o shall_v insist_v on_o and_o evince_v in_o these_o sheet_n but_o i_o shall_v argue_v divers_a other_o matter_n these_o two_o especial_o that_o the_o several_a sect_n of_o real_a trinitarian_n be_v guilty_a of_o a_o manifest_a tritheism_n their_o doctrine_n necessary_o and_o immediate_o infer_v three_o god_n and_o that_o the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n have_v causeless_o innovate_v the_o language_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o of_o the_o primitive_a church_n concern_v god_n and_o the_o person_n of_o the_o lord_n christ_n i_o say_v in_o the_o language_n of_o scripture_n and_o of_o the_o ancient_a church_n for_o they_o have_v retain_v the_o primitive_a and_o true_a doctrine_n only_o they_o have_v not_o keep_v to_o the_o form_n of_o sound_a word_n i_o will_v speak_v first_o of_o our_o brethren_n the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n then_o of_o the_o tritheistick_a tribe_n or_o realist_n of_o the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n that_o these_o be_v the_o church_n the_o first_o observation_n to_o be_v make_v on_o the_o nominal_n be_v that_o these_o be_v the_o church_n which_o i_o prove_v by_o two_o incontestable_a argument_n 1._o their_o doctrine_n have_v be_v espouse_v by_o a_o general_n council_n the_o council_n assemble_v at_o the_o lateran_n in_o the_o year_n 1215_o establish_v in_o the_o most_o ample_a manner_n and_o most_o express_a term_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o school-divines_a or_o nominal_a trinitarian_n and_o condemn_v in_o the_o person_n and_o write_n of_o abbot_n joachim_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o real_a trinitarian_n as_o heretical_a and_o mad_a i_o use_v the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o 2d_o canon_n of_o that_o council_n to_o this_o argument_n i_o must_v note_v two_o thing_n first_o this_o council_n be_v more_o true_o general_n than_o almost_o any_o of_o the_o council_n that_o be_v so_o call_v here_o be_v present_v 1200_o father_n the_o ambassador_n of_o the_o emperor_n of_o constantinople_n the_o king_n of_o the_o roman_n the_o king_n of_o france_n england_n arragon_n hungary_n jerusalem_n cyprus_n and_o divers_a other_o here_o also_o be_v the_o five_o patriarch_n partly_o in_o person_n partly_o by_o their_o legate_n the_o roman_a constantinopolitan_n he_o of_o jerusalem_n the_o antiochian_a and_o alexandrian_a who_o presence_n by_o themselves_o or_o their_o legate_n be_v suppose_v necessary_a towards_o constitute_v a_o ecumenical_a or_o general_n council_n second_o divine_v and_o canonist_n do_v not_o give_v the_o name_n of_o heresy_n to_o any_o doctrine_n because_o it_o be_v reject_v by_o a_o great_a number_n of_o learned_a man_n or_o by_o a_o national_a council_n but_o they_o reckon_v it_o heresy_n if_o it_o have_v be_v censure_v by_o a_o general_n council_n which_o represent_v the_o universal_a church_n be_v the_o mistake_n never_o so_o great_a let_v it_o have_v be_v condemn_v by_o never_o so_o many_o writer_n whether_o father_n or_o modern_n or_o both_o it_o be_v only_a error_n it_o be_v not_o heresy_n unless_o it_o have_v be_v anathematise_v by_o the_o catholic_n or_o universal_a church_n and_o the_o catholic_n church_n be_v never_o understand_v to_o speak_v but_o by_o a_o general_n council_n which_o for_o that_o reason_n be_v call_v the_o church_n representative_a brief_o heresy_n and_o the_o faith_n can_v be_v declare_v but_o only_o by_o a_o general_n council_n the_o general_n council_n at_o the_o lateran_n in_o rome_n have_v avow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o nominal_a trinitarian_n and_o anathematise_v the_o hypothesis_n and_o explication_n of_o the_o real_a trinitarian_n therefore_o say_v i_o the_o former_a be_v the_o church_n the_o latter_a be_v heretic_n i_o be_o amaze_v when_o i_o hear_v some_o real_a trinitarian_n say_v in_o their_o book_n that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o nominal_n never_o have_v any_o other_o public_a authority_n but_o the_o creed_n and_o 2d_o canon_n of_o the_o council_n of_o lateran_n for_o what_o other_o equal_a authority_n thereto_o can_v it_o have_v be_v not_o a_o general_n council_n the_o high_a court_n of_o the_o church_n her_o canon_n declare_v the_o faith_n her_o anathemas_n heresy_n and_o what_o other_o council_n ever_o be_v so_o general_a as_o this_o in_o which_o be_v assemble_v the_o emperor_n and_o king_n of_o the_o east_n and_o west_n the_o latin_a and_o greek_a church_n 1200_o father_n and_o what_o especial_o make_v a_o general_n council_n the_o five_o patriarch_n of_o christendom_n what_o will_v the_o realist_n say_v here_o that_o this_o be_v a_o popish_a council_n first_o it_o will_v be_v news_n indeed_o that_o the_o roman_a catholic_n be_v not_o orthodox_n in_o the_o question_n concern_v the_o trinity_n and_o the_o incarnation_n it_o have_v ever_o be_v grant_v to_o they_o both_o by_o the_o lutheran_n calvinist_n and_o church_n of_o england_n that_o they_o be_v sound_a in_o fundamental_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o trinity_n the_o incarnation_n the_o satisfaction_n and_o such_o like_a their_o error_n consist_v in_o the_o addition_n they_o have_v make_v to_o the_o fundamental_o and_o namely_o by_o their_o doctrine_n of_o indulgence_n transubstantiation_n worship_n and_o invocation_n of_o image_n and_o saint_n and_o the_o rest_n and_o be_v the_o greek_a church_n also_o heretical_a in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o trinity_n for_o in_o this_o council_n the_o greek_a emperor_n and_o church_n be_v represent_v as_o well_o as_o the_o latin_a church_n nay_o of_o the_o five_o patriarch_n here_o present_a four_o of_o they_o belong_v to_o the_o orient_a or_o greek_a church_n when_o the_o realist_n have_v turn_v themselves_o all_o way_n they_o will_v find_v themselves_o hold_v and_o even_o bind_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o this_o council_n which_o be_v too_o great_a and_o venerable_a to_o be_v open_o or_o direct_o disclaim_v it_o be_v object_v to_o this_o council_n by_o mr._n spanheim_n the_o present_a learned_a professor_n at_o leyden_n that_o they_o assent_v to_o and_o publish_v 70_o canon_n in_o 20_o day_n time_n and_o that_o the_o canon_n be_v not_o frame_v by_o the_o father_n but_o by_o the_o pope_n these_o be_v frivolous_a exception_n unworthy_a of_o so_o learned_a a_o historian_n for_o it_o be_v not_o at_o all_o to_o the_o purpose_n who_o contrive_v these_o canon_n see_v they_o be_v approve_v assent_v to_o and_o publish_v by_o the_o council_n canon_n be_v ofttimes_o compose_v by_o some_o particular_a father_n in_o a_o council_n sometime_o by_o a_o committee_n of_o the_o council_n sometime_o as_o in_o the_o present_a case_n by_o the_o precedent_n but_o by_o whosoever_o they_o be_v draw_v up_o they_o be_v not_o the_o canon_n of_o that_o person_n or_o person_n but_o of_o the_o council_n when_o the_o council_n have_v
