of_o divinity_n real_o believe_v that_o the_o father_n be_v god_n the_o son_n be_v god_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v god_n and_o that_o these_o three_o be_v equal_o god_n that_o god_n the_o son_n

my_o charge_n as_o follow_v first_o that_o i_o shall_v say_v i_o do_v not_o believe_v jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v god_n second_o that_o i_o shall_v say_v he_o be_v no_o more_o god_n than_o i_o be_o it_o be_v true_a he_o have_v more_o of_o god_n in_o he_o then_o i_o have_v but_o so_o far_o as_o god_n give_v forth_o himself_o to_o i_o i_o be_o as_o much_o god_n as_o he_o be_v thus_o far_o my_o charge_n to_o the_o first_o i_o answer_v and_o this_o i_o do_v as_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n that_o according_a to_o the_o best_a of_o my_o remembrance_n i_o do_v say_v i_o do_v not_o believe_v jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v god_n in_o that_o manner_n that_o i_o conceive_v some_o do_v hold_v he_o forth_o for_o according_a to_o my_o best_a understanding_n of_o their_o expression_n they_o make_v jesus_n christ_n a_o distinct_a god_n from_o god_n the_o father_n and_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o the_o like_a they_o do_v of_o the_o father_n &_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o so_o they_o hold_v forth_o three_o god_n and_o this_o be_v not_o my_o opinion_n alone_o of_o they_o for_o i_o meet_v with_o other_o of_o the_o same_o judgement_n to_o the_o last_o i_o answer_v in_o a_o word_n i_o deny_v it_o total_o for_o as_o it_o be_v never_o in_o my_o thought_n that_o jesus_n christ_n god_n be_v not_o god_n or_o that_o i_o shall_v ever_o partake_v of_o the_o essence_n of_o god_n so_o i_o do_v abominate_a the_o opinion_n charge_v upon_o i_o the_o end_n of_o my_o paper_n to_o the_o house_n i_o shall_v brief_o speak_v to_o that_o gross_a and_o carnal_a opinion_n of_o three_o distinct_a person_n or_o subsistence_n in_o the_o god_n head_n and_o conclude_v person_n or_o subsistence_n be_v substance_n or_o accident_n as_o for_o the_o word_n person_n i_o do_v not_o understand_v that_o it_o can_v proper_o be_v attribute_v but_o to_o man_n it_o be_v out_o of_o doubt_n with_o i_o that_o if_o you_o ask_v the_o most_o part_n of_o man_n what_o they_o mean_v by_o a_o person_n they_o will_v either_o tell_v you_o it_o be_v a_o man_n or_o else_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o give_v you_o any_o answer_n at_o all_o &_o for_o the_o word_n accident_n i_o suppose_v none_o will_v attribute_v that_o to_o god_n for_o according_a to_o my_o poor_a skill_n that_o word_n import_v no_o more_o but_o the_o figure_n or_o colour_n etc._n etc._n of_o a_o thing_n and_o certain_o no_o man_n ever_o see_v the_o likeness_n of_o god_n as_o the_o scripture_n abundant_o testify_v and_o therefore_o neither_o of_o the_o word_n person_n or_o subsistence_n can_v hold_v forth_o such_o a_o meaning_n as_o accident_n in_o god_n athanasius_n in_o his_o creed_n say_v there_o be_v one_o person_n of_o the_o father_n another_z of_o the_o son_n and_o another_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n other_o say_v that_o there_o be_v three_o distinct_a subsistence_n in_o god_n well_o these_o three_o person_n or_o subsistence_n can_v be_v accident_n neither_o do_v i_o think_v it_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o any_o then_o certain_o they_o must_v be_v substance_n if_o so_o than_o they_o must_v be_v create_v or_o uncreated_a limit_v or_o unlimited_a if_o create_v and_o limit_v than_o the_o person_n of_o the_o father_n be_v a_o creature_n the_o person_n of_o the_o son_n a_o creature_n and_o the_o person_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o creature_n which_o i_o think_v none_o will_v affirm_v if_o they_o be_v not_o create_v or_o limit_v than_o they_o must_v be_v uncreated_a or_o unlimited_a for_o i_o know_v no_o medium_n between_o create_a and_o uncreated_a limit_v and_o unlimited_a if_o they_o be_v uncreated_a and_o unlimited_a then_o there_o be_v three_o uncreated_a and_o unlimited_a substance_n and_o so_o consequent_o three_o go_n for_o my_o part_n i_o find_v no_o foot_n for_o such_o expression_n in_o scripture_n and_o i_o think_v they_o fit_v only_o to_o keep_v ignorant_a people_n in_o carnal_a and_o gross_a thought_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v explode_v they_o out_o of_o my_o creed_n i_o can_v have_v come_v forth_o in_o a_o better_a dress_n if_o i_o will_v have_v make_v use_n of_o help_n which_o be_v offer_v i_o but_o i_o rather_o choose_v to_o be_v see_v in_o a_o true_a face_n homely_a garb_n and_o russet_a coat_n than_o a_o paint_a face_n borrow_a accoutrement_n and_o a_o hypocritical_a posture_n a_o russet_a coat_n serve_v the_o countreymans_n
