A51999	A treatise of the Holy Trinunity [sic]. In two parts. The first, asserting the deity of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, in the unity of essence with God the father. The second, in defence of the former, containeth answers to the chiefest objections made against this doctrine. By Isaac Marlow.	Marlow, Isaac.	1690 (1690)	Wing M696; ESTC R216280	76,062	199

hide_v from_o age_n and_o generation_n unto_o his_o saint_n and_o leave_v they_o upon_o sacred_a record_n for_o future_a age_n by_o which_o mean_v we_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n not_o only_o of_o

be_v from_o his_o very_a conception_n and_o birth_n the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o we_o read_v luke_n 1.30_o and_o the_o answer_n be_v close_v with_o these_o word_n that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n ought_v
