which_o he_o will_v not_o because_o otherwise_o he_o can_v not_o be_v say_v to_o be_v simple_o omnipotent_a 9_o for_o as_o we_o hold_v not_o with_o they_o which_o think_v god_n be_v therefore_o call_v

neither_o do_v we_o subscribe_v to_o their_o opinion_n which_o hold_v that_o god_n be_v call_v and_o be_v omnipotent_a for_o no_o other_o cause_n but_o for_o that_o he_o can_v do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_v that_o his_o power_n shall_v so_o stretch_v no_o far_o than_o his_o will_n but_o we_o believe_v he_o be_v therefore_o almighty_a in_o that_o beside_o he_o can_v do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_v he_o can_v also_o both_o will_n &_o bring_v to_o pass_v innumerable_a thing_n which_o he_o will_v never_o will_v nor_o bring_v to_o pass_v 10_o for_o when_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_v it_o plain_o teach_v that_o he_o can_v have_v do_v much_o more_o if_o he_o will_v and_o he_o which_o say_v he_o will_v have_v mercy_n on_o who_o he_o will_v and_o he_o will_v

therefore_o that_o he_o can_v have_v mercy_n on_o more_o than_o he_o will_v have_v merdie_o on_o and_o so_o that_o there_o be_v more_o thing_n which_o he_o can_v do_v than_o he_o will_v do_v 11_o for_o that_o which_o he_o can_v do_v be_v can_v by_o his_o nature_n do_v and_o therefore_o can_v not_o but_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o unless_o he_o can_v also_o so_o do_v as_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v god_n but_o whatsoever_o without_o himself_o he_o will_v he_o free_o will_v it_o and_o therefore_o can_v also_o not_o will_v it_o so_o as_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o god_n can_v do_v more_o than_o he_o will_v see_v he_o can_v will_v that_o he_o will_v not_o 12_o now_o we_o say_v god_n can_v do_v all_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o repugnant_a either_o with_o his_o personal_a

admit_v 13_o thus_o although_o the_o father_n can_v be_v the_o son_n nor_o the_o son_n the_o father_n neither_o also_o the_o father_n can_v beget_v of_o himself_o another_o son_n or_o the_o son_n any_o other_o of_o himself_o yet_o therefore_o do_v nether_a the_o son_n nor_o the_o father_n cease_v to_o be_v omnipotent_a 14_o for_o these_o be_v personal_a propriety_n that_o the_o father_n shall_v beget_v and_o not_o be_v beget_v but_o the_o son_n be_v beget_v not_o beget_v neither_o do_v the_o essence_n of_o god_n bear_v it_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v more_o father_n or_o more_o

not_o be_v god_n unless_o he_o be_v such_o as_o the_o scripture_n describe_v he_o 16_o so_o we_o take_v no_o power_n from_o god_n nor_o weaken_v it_o at_o all_o if_o we_o say_v god_n can_v sin_v he_o can_v suffer_v he_o can_v bring_v to_o pass_v either_o not_o to_o be_v that_o which_o he_o be_v or_o that_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v do_v shall_v not_o have_v be_v do_v because_o these_o thing_n be_v partly_o of_o the_o defect_n of_o power_n and_o partly_o they_o imply_v a_o contradiction_n and_o therefore_o be_v direct_o repugnant_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n and_o simple_o impossible_a 17_o and_o so_o be_v it_o the_o property_n of_o god_n to_o be_v omnipotent_a as_o that_o it_o can_v belong_v to_o no_o create_a thing_n 18_o for_o see_v omnipotency_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o very_a immeasurable_a infinite_a essence_n and_o able_a to_o be_v communicate_v to_o no_o creature_n that_o it_o shall_v agree_v to_o that_o thing_n to_o be_v omnipotent_a unto_o which_o it_o do_v not_o agree_v to_o be_v god_n in_o it_o own_o essence_n 19_o neither_o can_v a_o thing_n finite_a be_v capable_a of_o a_o thing_n infinite_a see_v every_o thing_n be_v receive_v according_a to_o the_o measure_n as_o they_o say_v of_o the_o receive_v 20_o also_o it_o be_v no_o less_o contrary_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v more_o almighty_n then_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v more_o god_n whereupon_o christian_n religion_n will_v not_o allow_v that_o the_o three_o person_n in_o god_n shall_v be_v say_v to_o be_v three_o almighty_n 21_o wherefore_o although_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n be_v true_o omnipotent_a because_o he_o be_v not_o man_n only_o but_o also_o god_n yet_o his_o humanity_n can_v be_v or_o be_v say_v to_o be_v proper_o omnipotent_a without_o

can_v it_o have_v suffer_v if_o as_o god_n so_o also_o it_o have_v be_v make_v omnipotent_a see_v to_o be_v able_a to_o suffer_v be_v impotency_n and_o therefore_o god_n can_v not_o suffer_v because_o he_o be_v omnipotent_a 24_o and_o if_o the_o human_a nature_n of_o christ_n be_v make_v omnipotent_a through_o the_o hypostatical_a union_n in_o christ_n why_o do_v the_o scripture_n attribute_v it_o

that_o the_o omnipotency_n may_v be_v communicate_v to_o any_o create_a thing_n 27_o last_o concern_v religion_n we_o must_v not_o speak_v but_o agreeable_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o to_o the_o analogy_n of_o faith_n but_o the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v declare_v none_o but_o only_o god_n to_o be_v omnipotent_a neither_o do_v the_o church_n ever_o profess_v any_o otherwise_o in_o she_o cree_v 28_o whereas_o christ_n say_v after_o his_o resurrection_n alpower_v be_v give_v unto_o i_o authority_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o power_n another_o neither_o say_v he_o it_o be_v give_v to_o my_o
