god_n and_o they_o the_o mutual-consciousness_n of_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n be_v the_o perichóresis_n and_o circumincession_n mention_v by_o the_o father_n and_o the_o school_n for_o

else_o but_o their_o universal_a mutual-consciousness_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o entertain_v a_o gross_a material_a idea_n of_o the_o perichóresis_n as_o if_o the_o three_o distinct_a divine_a person_n be_v in_o one_o another_o by_o a_o mutual_a contract_n of_o part_n for_o they_o have_v no_o part_n the_o only_a union_n and_o perichóresis_n of_o mind_n and_o spirit_n be_v that_o they_o be_v conscious_a each_o to_o other_o thought_n and_o will_n as_o perfect_o and_o inward_o as_o to_o their_o own_o and_o thus_o also_o it_o be_v that_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n be_v one_o god_n they_o be_v one_o god_n and_o in_o one_o another_o by_o perfect_a mutual-consciousness_n the_o vindicator_n often_o say_v that_o this_o explication_n of_o the_o trinity_n make_v a_o trinity_n in_o unity_n as_o easy_a and_o intelligible_a as_o the_o notion_n of_o one_o god_n or_o but_o one_o who_o be_v god_n but_o be_v aware_a that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o a_o explication_n be_v intelligible_a if_o it_o be_v not_o also_o the_o true_a explication_n therefore_o he_o pretend_v to_o prove_v this_o mutual-consciousness_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o spirit_n from_o joh._n 1.18_o &_o 10.15_o 30_o 38._o &_o 16.14_o 15._o 1_o cor._n 2.10_o 11._o then_o for_o the_o father_n though_o they_o do_v not_o once_o name_v mutual-consciousness_n yet_o he_o think_v they_o mean_v it_o he_o allege_v a_o few_o passage_n out_o of_o gregory_n nyssen_n and_o st._n austin_n who_o be_v all_o the_o father_n he_o quote_v and_o his_o citation_n be_v not_o only_o not_o to_o his_o

make_v the_o three_o divine_a spirit_n to_o be_v as_o true_o and_o proper_o numerical_o one_o and_o as_o much_o one_o as_o each_o spirit_n and_o every_o man_n be_v one_o with_o himself_o if_o this_o be_v indeed_o true_a it_o will_v as_o much_o overdo_v what_o the_o vindicator_n expect_v from_o it_o as_o he_o think_v all_o former_a explication_n be_v short_a of_o their_o design_n for_o the_o unitarian_n desire_v no_o more_o than_o that_o it_o be_v own_v god_n be_v as_o true_o and_o proper_o numerical_o one_o as_o every_o spirit_n and_o man_n be_v one_o with_o himself_o for_o every_o spirit_n and_o man_n be_v so_o one_o with_o himself_o as_o to_o be_v but_o one_o person_n have_v the_o vindicator_n no_o way_n to_o defend_v the_o athanasian_n creed_n but_o by_o run_v into_o heresy_n can_v he_o make_v out_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o trinity_n no_o other_o way_n but_o as_o the_o creed_n speak_v by_o confound_v the_o person_n or_o by_o make_v they_o but_o one_o person_n i_o challenge_v he_o or_o any_o other_o for_o he_o to_o avoid_v this_o consequence_n of_o his_o doctrine_n he_o say_v in_o above_o twenty_o place_n this_o mutual-consciousness_n make_v the_o three_o divine_a spirit_n and_o person_n as_o much_o one_o with_o one_o another_o as_o any_o spirit_n or_o man_n be_v one_o with_o himself_o then_o say_v i_o they_o be_v but_o one_o person_n for_o that_o be_v the_o oneness_n or_o unity_n the_o only_a unity_n of_o every_o spirit_n or_o man_n with_o himself_o no_o spirit_n or_o man_n have_v any_o other_o but_o a_o personal_a unity_n with_o himself_o 2._o mutual-consciousness_n can_v be_v a_o good_a explication_n of_o the_o pretend_v trinity_n because_o it_o will_v equal_o salve_v the_o most_o absurd_a doctrine_n of_o the_o transubstantiation_n for_o as_o according_a to_o the_o vindicator_n doctrine_n the_o godhead_n or_o the_o one_o true_a god_n be_v numerical_o one_o though_o there_o be_v three_o infinite_a person_n each_o of_o which_o be_v god_n and_o a_o god_n because_o these_o three_o person_n be_v mutual_o conscious_a to_o or_o have_v a_o inward_a sensation_n of_o one_o another_o so_o will_v a_o papist_n say_v there_o be_v but_o

abundance_n of_o sacred_a host_n in_o divers_a place_n each_o of_o which_o be_v a_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v by_o mutual_a sensation_n and_o consciousness_n for_o there_o be_v no_o

union_n as_o the_o vindicator_n hope_v it_o will_v help_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o trinity_n the_o vindicator_n confess_v at_o p._n 269_o and_o 270_o that_o the_o human_a nature_n or_o reasonable_a soul_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o universal_o or_o whole_o conscious_a to_o the_o divine_a person_n of_o the_o son_n yet_o he_o say_v in_o perhaps_o forty_o place_n that_o a_o mutual-consciousness_n to_o all_o one_o another_o thought_n and_o will_n and_o action_n be_v necessary_a to_o make_v a_o union_n of_o mind_n or_o spirit_n i_o say_v it_o follow_v from_o these_o premise_n that_o the_o reasonable_a soul_n or_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n christ_n be_v not_o unite_v to_o the_o divine_a person_n of_o the_o son_n if_o universal_a consciousness_n be_v the_o only_a possible_a union_n of_o spirit_n it_o be_v impossible_a there_o shall_v be_v a_o incarnation_n or_o a_o hypostatical_a or_o personal_a union_n of_o the_o divine_a and_o human_a spirit_n in_o christ_n the_o vindicator_n seem_v to_o have_v be_v in_o some_o measure_n aware_a of_o this_o objection_n for_o in_o the_o conclusion_n of_o his_o book_n when_o he_o come_v to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o incarnation_n or_o hypostatical_a union_n he_o say_v where_o different_a nature_n be_v unite_v into_o one_o person_n this_o universal_a consciousness_n be_v seat_v only_o in_o the_o superior_a nature_n and_o in_o the_o inferior_a only_o so_o far_o as_o the_o nature_n be_v capable_a and_o as_o the_o personal_a union_n require_v but_o i_o will_v forgive_v the_o vindicator_n if_o he_o can_v so_o escape_v from_o i_o first_o if_o as_o he_o say_v a_o partial_a consciousness_n in_o the_o inferior_a nature_n be_v sufficient_a to_o effect_v a_o hypostatical_a or_o personal_a union_n it_o will_v follow_v that_o all_o pious_a man_n be_v hypostatical_o or_o personal_o unite_v to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v universal_o conscious_a to_o all_o their_o thought_n and_o action_n and_o they_o be_v partial_o conscious_a to_o his_o suggestion_n and_o motion_n and_o that_o by_o such_o a_o internal_a sensation_n as_o they_o be_v to_o their_o own_o thought_n and_o inclination_n they_o can_v discern_v one_o from_o the_o other_o second_o if_o a_o partial_a consciousness_n between_o two_o or_o more_o spirit_n where_o but_o one_o of_o they_o be_v universal_o conscious_a to_o the_o rest_n will_v make_v they_o numerical_o one_o person_n or_o what_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n will_v effect_v

a_o hypostatical_a or_o personal_a union_n then_o certain_o where_o two_o or_o more_o spirit_n be_v universal_o conscious_a to_o one_o another_o it_o must_v much_o more_o make_v they_o numerical_o one_o person_n or_o effect_v a_o hypostatical_a or_o personal_a union_n from_o whence_o it_o will_v follow_v that_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n be_v universal_o conscious_a to_o one_o another_o be_v numerical_o one_o person_n and_o be_v hypostatical_o and_o personal_o unite_v but_o this_o every_o one_o know_v be_v heresy_n and_o contrary_a to_o the_o athanasian_n creed_n which_o forbid_v we_o to_o confound_v the_o person_n three_o but_o the_o truth_n be_v a_o partial_a mutual-consciousness_n in_o one_o of_o the_o spirit_n though_o the_o other_o be_v universal_o conscious_a be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o make_v a_o personal_a union_n or_o to_o make_v two_o or_o more_o person_n to_o be_v numerical_o one_o person_n the_o reason_n be_v this_o since_o universal_a mutual-consciousness_n be_v therefore_o say_v by_o the_o vindicator_n to_o make_v more_o spirit_n to_o be_v numerical_o one_o because_o in_o every_o one_o of_o they_o it_o amount_v to_o as_o much_o as_o and_o be_v equivalent_a to_o the_o selfconsciousness_n or_o self-unity_n of_o each_o spirit_n with_o itself_o for_o it_o make_v more_o spirit_n as_o conscious_a to_o one_o another_o and_o therefore_o as_o numerical_o one_o as_o every_o spirit_n be_v to_o itself_o from_o hence_o it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o a_o mutual_a consciousness_n which_o be_v not_o universal_a in_o both_o spirit_n can_v effect_v a_o personal_a union_n or_o make_v they_o numerical_o one_o person_n because_o it_o be_v undeniable_a that_o one_o of_o these_o spirit_n the_o inferior_a nature_n or_o spirit_n have_v not_o such_o a_o mutual-consciousness_n with_o the_o other_o spirit_n as_o be_v equal_a to_o its_o own_o selfconsciousness_n which_o make_v it_o self-unity_n hitherto_o i_o have_v so_o argue_v as_o to_o suppose_v with_o the_o vindicator_n that_o such_o a_o mutual-consciousness_n as_o he_o have_v describe_v when_o it_o be_v universal_a may_v have_v the_o effect_n he_o suppose_v that_o be_v may_v effect_v a_o numerical_a oneness_n or_o unity_n and_o have_v only_o show_v that_o however_o it_o have_v several_a such_o heretical_a consequence_n that_o it_o must_v not_o be_v admit_v by_o he_o or_o any_o other_o for_o we_o have_v see_v it_o make_v the_o three_o divine_a person_n to_o be_v but_o one_o person_n because_o he_o say_v it_o make_v they_o as_o much_o one_o as_o each_o spirit_n person_n or_o man_n be_v one_o with_o himself_o also_o this_o hypothesis_n will_v do_v as_o much_o service_n to_o the_o transubstantiation_n as_o to_o the_o trinity_n for_o it_o will_v make_v as_o substantial_a and_o numerical_a a_o unity_n between_o the_o host_n and_o the_o body_n in_o heaven_n as_o between_o the_o three_o divine_a spirit_n far_o it_o destroy_v the_o hypostatical_a union_n for_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o a_o partial_a consciousness_n between_o the_o human_a and_o divine_a spirit_n in_o the_o lord_n christ_n can_v make_v a_o personal_a union_n or_o make_v they_o numerical_o one_o person_n because_o in_o his_o human_a spirit_n it_o be_v not_o equal_a to_o that_o selfconsciousness_n which_o the_o vindicator_n affirm_v to_o be_v the_o self-unity_n of_o every_o intelligent_a be_v but_o now_o i_o shall_v prove_v that_o 4._o mutual_a consciousness_n notwithstanding_o the_o vindicator_n confident_a affirmation_n and_o frequent_a repetition_n of_o it_o do_v not_o indeed_o make_v the_o three_o divine_a person_n to_o be_v numerial_o one_o or_o so_o one_o as_o each_o spirit_n and_o every_o man_n be_v one_o with_o himself_o nay_o it_o neither_o be_v nor_o effect_v any_o real_a unity_n at_o all_o for_o though_o he_o be_v careful_a to_o suppose_v that_o the_o three_o person_n be_v mutual_o conscious_a by_o a_o internal_a sensation_n and_o that_o they_o be_v conscious_a to_o all_o the_o thought_n will_n and_o action_n of_o one_o another_o as_o each_o person_n of_o they_o and_o as_o every_o man_n be_v internal_o conscious_a to_o all_o his_o own_o thought_n and_o action_n all_o which_o he_o think_v must_v make_v they_o numerical_o one_o spirit_n and_o one_o god_n because_o in_o his_o opinion_n it_o amount_v to_o as_o much_o as_o and_o be_v equivalent_a to_o that_o selfconsciousness_n which_o be_v he_o say_v the_o self-unity_n of_o each_o spirit_n and_o every_o man_n with_o himself_o though_o i_o say_v he_o be_v careful_a to_o suppose_v thus_o much_o yet_o i_o shall_v mind_v he_o of_o a_o thing_n which_o will_v ruin_v his_o whole_a hypothesis_n even_o this_o that_o the_o three_o divine_a spirit_n or_o person_n though_o they_o be_v universal_o and_o internal_o conscious_a to_o one_o another_o yet_o because_o they_o be_v not_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n conscious_a to_o one_o another_o thought_n and_o action_n as_o each_o spirit_n of_o they_o and_o each_o man_n be_v conscious_a to_o his_o own_o thought_n and_o action_n therefore_o the_o mutual-consciousness_n which_o he_o suppose_v they_o have_v can_v make_v they_o numerical_o one_o spirit_n or_o one_o god_n none_o of_o they_o be_v conscious_a to_o the_o thought_n and_o action_n of_o the_o other_o two_o as_o his_o own_o but_o as_o rise_n in_o and_o from_o the_o other_o person_n but_o each_o of_o these_o spirit_n and_o every_o man_n be_v conscious_a to_o his_o own_o thought_n and_o action_n as_o arise_v in_o and_o from_o himself_o from_o his_o own_o personal_a understanding_n will_n and_o power_n of_o action_n let_v i_o hear_v the_o vindicator_n say_v that_o the_o son_n for_o example_n know_v and_o feel_v the_o thought_n and_o action_n of_o the_o father_n and_o spirit_n not_o as_o the_o thought_n and_o action_n of_o the_o father_n and_o spirit_n but_o as_o his_o own_o personal_a thoaght_n and_o action_n or_o as_o originate_v in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o i_o will_v allow_v that_o such_o consciousness_n do_v look_v somewhat_o like_o a_o numerical_a oneness_n or_o unity_n but_o i_o will_v demonstrate_v to_o he_o that_o so_o to_o say_v be_v both_o heresy_n and_o a_o contradiction_n it_o be_v heretical_a because_o then_o the_o father_n be_v personal_a action_n of_o generation_n will_v be_v know_v and_o feel_v by_o the_o son_n as_o the_o action_n of_o the_o son_n that_o be_v the_o son_n will_v know_v and_o feel_v that_o he_o beget_v himself_o also_o the_o mutual_a love_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o image_n or_o son_n whereby_o as_o this_o athanasian_n doctor_n feign_v the_o holy_a spirit_n proceed_v from_o they_o will_v be_v know_v and_o feel_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n as_o his_o own_o personal_a action_n not_o as_o the_o action_n of_o the_o father_n and_o son_n both_o which_o be_v heretical_a when_o affirm_v by_o any_o but_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v heresy_n it_o be_v also_o a_o contradiction_n it_o be_v just_a as_o much_o a_o contradiction_n as_o to_o say_v that_o the_o person_n and_o personal_n understanding_n of_o the_o son_n be_v the_o person_n and_o personal_n understanding_n of_o the_o father_n if_o we_o confound_v the_o person_n and_o personal_n thought_n and_o action_n of_o the_o father_n son_n and_o spirit_n we_o confound_v also_o their_o personal_a understanding_n will_n and_o power_n of_o action_n if_o each_o person_n of_o they_o have_v his_o personal_a understanding_n will_n and_o power_n of_o action_n he_o have_v also_o his_o personal_a thought_n and_o action_n and_o consequent_o the_o son_n can_v feel_v the_o thought_n and_o action_n of_o the_o father_n as_o his_o own_o personal_a thought_n and_o action_n but_o as_o the_o thought_n and_o action_n of_o the_o father_n but_o if_o so_o all_o man_n must_v grant_v that_o such_o mutual-consciousness_n of_o the_o three_o divine_a person_n neither_o be_v nor_o effect_v a_o numerical_a unity_n or_o any_o unity_n at_o all_o it_o can_v i_o say_v make_v they_o one_o spirit_n or_o one_o god_n but_o leave_v they_o as_o much_o three_o as_o other_o separate_a spirit_n or_o being_n be_v for_o it_o be_v such_o a_o

both_o to_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o to_o the_o tempter_n we_o be_v conscious_a to_o the_o suggestion_n and_o motion_n of_o the_o first_o and_o to_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o other_o by_o a_o
