father_n by_o his_o paternal_a authority_n and_o these_o authority_n may_v be_v in_o subordination_n one_o to_o the_o other_o though_o the_o man_n be_v the_o same_o and_o what_o be_v do_v in_o

man_n or_o by_o the_o father_n this_o be_v the_o true_a and_o proper_a notion_n of_o the_o word_n person_n we_o be_v next_o to_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v to_o signify_v in_o the_o present_a case_n where_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o word_n person_n be_v not_o apply_v in_o scripture_n to_o these_o three_o so_o call_v it_o be_v not_o there_o say_v these_o three_o person_n be_v one_o but_o only_o these_o three_o be_v one_o it_o be_v but_o the_o church_n usage_n that_o give_v to_o these_o three_o somewhat_n the_o name_n of_o person_n and_o therefore_o our_o arian_n be_v much_o mistake_v when_o he_o tell_v we_o p._n 20._o that_o the_o word_n person_n be_v the_o hinge_v of_o the_o controversy_n the_o hinge_v of_o the_o controversy_n be_v that_o notion_n concern_v these_o three_o somewhat_n which_o the_o father_n who_o first_o use_v it_o do_v intend_v to_o design_n by_o the_o name_n person_n so_o that_o we_o be_v not_o from_o the_o word_n person_n to_o determine_v what_o be_v that_o notion_n but_o from_o that_o notion_n which_o they_o will_v express_v to_o determine_v in_o what_o sense_n the_o word_n person_n be_v here_o use_v and_o if_o the_o word_n person_n do_v not_o well_o fit_a that_o sense_n all_o that_o can_v be_v thence_o infer_v be_v no_o more_o but_o that_o they_o have_v make_v use_n of_o a_o unfit_a name_n to_o express_v their_o notion_n it_o be_v no_o more_o but_o as_o if_o a_o cruel_a pope_n take_v the_o name_n of_o clement_n or_o a_o wicked_a one_o the_o name_n of_o pius_n or_o if_o a_o man_n be_v name_v willson_n who_o father_n name_n be_v thomas_n and_o in_o all_o such_o case_n certitudo_fw-la rei_fw-la tollit_fw-la errorem_fw-la nominis_fw-la and_o if_o we_o know_v who_o be_v the_o man_n design_v by_o such_o a_o name_n it_o be_v a_o ridiculous_a exception_n to_o say_v this_o be_v not_o the_o man_n because_o that_o name_n do_v well_o agree_v with_o his_o nature_n now_o two_o of_o these_o three_o be_v represent_v in_o scripture_n as_o father_n and_o son_n and_o this_o father_n say_v to_o beget_v the_o son_n and_o all_o these_o in_o a_o sense_n metaphorical_a not_o in_o such_o sense_n as_o those_o word_n do_v proper_o signify_v among_o man_n they_o think_v it_o not_o unfit_a in_o continuation_n of_o the_o same_o metaphor_n to_o call_v they_o person_n because_o as_o the_o word_n person_n do_v proper_o agree_v to_o the_o relation_n of_o father_n and_o son_n in_o a_o proper_a sense_n so_o do_v the_o word_n person_n in_o a_o metaphorical_a sense_n to_o the_o father_n and_o son_n so_o take_v metaphorical_o and_o the_o word_n beget_v by_o a_o like_a metaphor_n when_o therefore_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o notion_n which_o the_o ancient_a father_n have_v concern_v these_o three_o which_o in_o a_o metaphorical_a sense_n they_o call_v person_n be_v this_o that_o there_o be_v a_o distinction_n between_o they_o great_a than_o that_o of_o the_o divine_a attribute_n but_o not_o so_o great_a as_o to_o make_v they_o three_o god_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o they_o take_v the_o metaphor_n not_o from_o that_o abusive_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n person_n when_o among_o we_o it_o be_v put_v for_o man_n but_o from_o that_o proper_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n persona_fw-la wherein_o it_o signify_v the_o state_n condition_n office_n or_o relation_n of_o a_o man_n as_o various_o circumstantiate_v with_o reference_n to_o other_o whereof_o the_o same_o man_n may_v sustain_v more_o than_o one._n as_o when_o david_n be_v the_o son_n of_o jesse_n the_o father_n of_o solomon_n and_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n so_o if_o we_o say_v of_o any_o that_o he_o be_v a_o person_n of_o honour_n a_o person_n of_o worth_n and_o a_o person_n of_o interest_n that_o same_o man_n may_v be_v all_o this_o without_o become_v three_o men._n now_o this_o our_o arian_n may_v call_v this_o if_o he_o please_v a_o quirk_n a_o criticism_n a_o undermine_a the_o very_a idea_n of_o the_o word_n person_n as_o he_o do_v in_o his_o p._n 7_o 15_o 17._o or_o may_v neglect_v it_o if_o he_o please_v but_o the_o sober_a reader_n who_o understand_v it_o better_o will_v have_v better_a thought_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o take_v his_o advice_n p._n 7_o 8._o to_o say_v that_o god_n be_v the_o name_n of_o a_o office_n that_o so_o he_o may_v know_v how_o to_o attack_v i_o as_o he_o say_v which_o while_o i_o talk_v so_o wary_o he_o know_v not_o how_o to_o do_v i_o say_v god_n be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o nature_n but_o if_o he_o will_v have_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o name_n of_o a_o office_n the_o mediatory_a office_n and_o the_o comforter_n or_o even_o the_o creator_n the_o redeemer_n the_o sanctifier_n to_o be_v name_n of_o work_n or_o office_n it_o will_v not_o be_v much_o amiss_o now_o when_o i_o have_v say_v this_o doctrine_n of_o we_o be_v as_o old_a at_o least_o as_o the_o new_a testament_n because_o i_o can_v prove_v it_o from_o thence_o he_o will_v have_v it_o p._n 5._o no_o old_a than_o the_o dispute_v of_o alexander_n and_o athanasius_n which_o the_o primitive_a church_n know_v nothing_o of_o but_o he_o bar_n quotation_n all_o along_o and_o therefore_o i_o must_v not_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v know_v to_o the_o church_n before_o that_o time_n but_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o reader_n verse_v in_o church-history_n who_o word_n must_v

think_v it_o be_v from_o those_o notice_n of_o it_o among_o the_o jew_n that_o not_o only_a plato_n derive_v much_o of_o his_o philosophy_n but_o other_o heathen_n also_o much_o of_o their_o

the_o business_n now_o before_o we_o towards_o the_o close_a he_o be_v so_o kind_a as_o not_o to_o desire_v arianism_n to_o be_v impose_v on_o other_o any_o more_o than_o trinitarianism_n on_o he_o p._n 8._o but_o neither_o be_v this_o business_n before_o we_o who_o be_v but_o disputant_n not_o lawmaker_n but_o so_o constant_a he_o mean_v to_o be_v to_o his_o cause_n that_o he_o will_v be_v content_a to_o be_v persuade_v out_o of_o his_o name_n with_o his_o opinion_n i_o think_v there_o be_v reason_n why_o he_o shall_v change_v his_o opinion_n but_o as_o to_o the_o change_n of_o his_o
