excellent_a proof_n of_o the_o divinity_n of_o our_o great_a redeemer_n he_o be_v therefore_o as_o you_o see_v equal_a to_o his_o father_n in_o eternity_n in_o immensity_n in_o holiness_n in_o power_n and_o in_o mercy_n and_o what_o be_v the_o result_n of_o this_o equality_n but_o this_o that_o our_o lord_n possess_v the_o attribute_n of_o the_o divine_a essence_n and_o enjoy_v the_o honour_n that_o be_v incontestable_o due_a to_o that_o essence_n this_o be_v the_o three_o head_n whereby_o we_o prove_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v equal_a with_o his_o father_n that_o which_o at_o first_o put_v we_o upon_o the_o meditation_n of_o this_o article_n be_v that_o honourable_a rank_n our_o saviour_n hold_v in_o the_o scripture_n in_o that_o sacred_a book_n where_o every_o thing_n be_v in_o its_o proper_a place_n and_o where_o nothing_o that_o be_v create_v be_v make_v to_o go_v hand_n in_o hand_n with_o god_n and_o yet_o there_o we_o ever_o see_v the_o son_n always_o join_v with_o his_o heavenly_a father_n teach_v all_o nation_n baptise_v they_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n there_o be_v three_o that_o bear_v record_n in_o heaven_n the_o father_n the_o word_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 5.7_o john_n 5.7_o these_o be_v text_n where_o we_o see_v these_o three_o adorable_a person_n rank_v in_o one_o line_n st._n paul_n bless_v the_o corinthian_n from_o the_o son_n even_o as_o from_o the_o father_n the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o love_n of_o god_n 13.14_o 2_o cor._n 13.14_o and_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v with_o you_o all_o a_o remarkable_a passage_n indeed_o where_o we_o find_v the_o son_n even_o name_v before_o the_o father_n which_o yet_o we_o find_v also_o in_o many_o other_o passage_n but_o why_o be_v the_o order_n here_o invert_v to_o make_v it_o appear_v 2.16_o gal._n 1.1_o 2._o 2_o thes_n 2.16_o say_v the_o father_n that_o the_o order_n of_o name_n do_v not_o import_v a_o subordination_n of_o different_a nature_n the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n be_v only_o one_o divine_a nature_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o scripture_n sometime_o place_v the_o son_n above_o the_o father_n can_v we_o imagine_v that_o that_o sacred_a record_n will_v ever_o have_v commit_v such_o a_o absurdity_n if_o the_o son_n have_v be_v no_o more_o

grace_n of_o moses_n and_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v with_o you_o all_o or_o of_o this_o joshua_n call_v to_o be_v a_o leader_n of_o israel_n not_o of_o man_n nor_o by_o man_n but_o by_o moses_n

son_n have_v be_v a_o creature_n because_o he_o will_v have_v be_v infinite_o inferior_a to_o he_o neither_o will_v the_o scripture_n ever_o have_v suppress_v this_o distance_n by_o range_v the_o

of_o they_o in_o the_o most_o smart_a and_o lively_a term_n express_v the_o jealousy_n of_o god_n for_o any_o divine_a honour_n exhibit_v to_o creature_n we_o need_v but_o cast_v our_o eye_n upon_o the_o old_a testament_n to_o be_v full_o convince_v thereof_o it_o be_v indeed_o no_o other_o than_o a_o perpetual_a commentary_n upon_o the_o first_o commandment_n thou_o shall_v have_v no_o other_o
