where_o the_o first_o person_n in_o trinity_n be_v point_v unto_o then_o it_o be_v say_v this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n there_o the_o second_o person_n be_v at_o three_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o

scripture_n do_v avouch_v a_o plain_a distinction_n of_o person_n as_o we_o say_v a_o trinity_n in_o unity_n &_o a_o unity_n in_o trinity_n father_n yet_o i_o can_v by_o any_o reason_n discern_v but_o if_o every_o person_n be_v god_n then_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v three_o god_n child_n we_o must_v not_o in_o this_o case_n consult_v with_o reason_n but_o simple_o believe_v the_o scripture_n though_o we_o can_v comprehend_v by_o humane_a reason_n the_o manner_n or_o rather_o mystery_n of_o this_o matter_n for_o it_o far_o exceed_v all_o humane_a reach_n and_o capacity_n father_n be_v

three_o apple_n grow_v together_o in_o one_o and_o such_o like_a but_o because_o they_o be_v indeed_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o simple_a essence_n therefore_o the_o person_n of_o the_o deity_n

do_v you_o not_o think_v that_o god_n also_o create_v the_o angel_n child_n yes_o 16._o they_o also_o be_v the_o work_n of_o his_o finger_n father_n when_o do_v he_o create_v they_o child_n in_o the_o
