A70688	The exceptions of Mr. Edwards in his Causes of atheism against the Reasonableness of Christianity, as deliver'd in the Scriptures, examin'd and found unreasonable, unscriptural, and injurious also it's clearly proved by many testimonies of Holy Scripture, that the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is the only God and Father of Christians.

to_o believe_v a_o trinity_n in_o unity_n in_o the_o godhead_n or_o that_o god_n be_v one_o as_o to_o his_o essence_n and_o nature_n yet_o there_o be_v three_o person_n in_o that_o divine_a essence_n

by_o three_o person_n do_v they_o mean_v according_a to_o the_o common_a sense_n of_o mankind_n and_o especial_o of_o the_o english_a nation_n three_o singular_a intellectual_a being_n no_o by_o no_o
