before_o we_o may_v discover_v their_o extreme_a folly_n with_o another_o demand_n for_o we_o may_v ask_v whether_o god_n be_v good_a and_o merciful_a of_o his_o own_o will_n or_o against_o his_o will_n for_o if_o he_o be_v good_a and_o merciful_a of_o his_o own_o will_n and_o will_n go_v before_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v choose_v by_o will_n than_o there_o be_v a_o time_n or_o space_n when_o god_n be_v not_o yet_o good_a and_o merciful_a but_o consult_v &_o take_v deliberation_n about_o those_o thing_n item_n we_o may_v demand_v of_o they_o whether_o the_o father_n be_v god_n of_o his_o will_n or_o against_o his_o will_n if_o of_o his_o will_n than_o after_o these_o man_n high_a wit_n his_o will_n go_v before_o his_o essence_n and_o be_v if_o against_o his_o will_n who_o constrain_v he_o ▪_o who_o see_v not_o now_o the_o outrageous_a madness_n and_o extrene_a fransie_n of_o these_o wild_a spirit_n for_o in_o deed_n in_o natural_a thing_n no_o will_n go_v before_o which_o will_n have_v place_n only_o in_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v without_o the_o substance_n of_o he_o that_o take_v deliberation_n but_o here_o we_o will_v make_v a_o end_n of_o this_o lecture_n let_v these_o word_n of_o the_o evangelist_n my_o brethren_n which_o we_o now_o have_v treat_v sink_v depelye_o into_o your_o heart_n which_o weigh_v down_o so_o great_a heresy_n and_o teach_v we_o so_o excellent_a and_o so_o divine_a thing_n as_o the_o angel_n can_v not_o attain_v unto_o let_v we_o consider_v how_o great_a goodness_n of_o god_n this_o be_v that_o he_o have_v vouchsafe_v to_o open_v unto_o we_o the_o most_o reverend_a temple_n of_o his_o divine_a majesty_n and_o let_v we_o praise_v his_o holy_a name_n therefore_o and_o be_v thankful_a ¶_o the_o second_o read_v and_o the_o word_n be_v with_o god_n before_o the_o world_n be_v make_v there_o be_v nether_a time_n nor_o place_n and_o therefore_o the_o word_n be_v a_o thing_n subsistinge_v in_o the_o begin_v before_o any_o thing_n be_v make_v can_v be_v no_o where_o but_o with_o god_n and_o in_o god_n for_o than_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o god_n and_o so_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v of_o the_o same_o substance_n that_o god_n be_v of_o for_o if_o he_o be_v not_o of_o the_o same_o substance_n and_o yet_o be_v in_o the_o beginning_n that_o be_v to_o say_v ever_o a_o thing_n subsistinge_v with_o god_n than_o the_o proprietes_fw-la of_o god_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o the_o proprietes_fw-la of_o god_n be_v to_o be_v infinite_a and_o to_o be_v omnipotent_a but_o if_o they_o be_v two_o sundry_a divide_a substance_n neither_o of_o they_o shall_v be_v infinite_a nor_o omnipotent_a for_o where_o the_o one_o be_v the_o other_o shall_v not_o be_v nor_o where_o the_o power_n of_o the_o one_o the_o power_n of_o the_o other_o their_o substance_n than_o of_o necessite_a must_v be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o and_o yet_o these_o word_n show_v manifest_o a_o difference_n in_o the_o godhead_n for_o it_o be_v a_o great_a absurdite_n to_o shall_fw-mi the_o word_n be_v with_o god_n if_o there_o be_v no_o manner_n of_o difference_n between_o god_n and_o the_o word_n for_o who_o can_v say_v of_o one_o thing_n have_v no_o manner_n of_o difference_n that_o that_o thing_n have_v a_o thing_n with_o it_o who_o can_v say_v without_o absurdite_n in_o such_o a_o ring_n there_o be_v a_o diamond_n and_o in_o the_o diamond_n or_o with_o the_o diamond_n there_o be_v a_o diamond_n speak_v of_o one_o only_a diamond_n thus_o we_o may_v say_v in_o such_o a_o ring_n there_o be_v a_o diamond_n and_o in_o the_o diamond_n a_o point_n a_o race_n or_o a_o virtue_n to_o take_v away_o the_o power_n of_o the_o adamant_n stone_n for_o there_o be_v some_o difference_n between_o the_o point_n the_o race_n &_o the_o virtue_n &_o the_o diamond_n itself_o so_o than_o when_o we_o say_v a_o thing_n be_v with_o a_o thing_n there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o thing_n with_o which_o it_o be_v and_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v with_o it_o these_o word_n therefore_o forcible_o overthrow_v another_o heresy_n namely_o of_o sabellius_n who_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v no_o distinction_n of_o person_n in_o the_o godhead_n and_o that_o these_o word_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v only_o sundry_a title_n and_o name_n give_v to_o one_o person_n as_o one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o man_n may_v some_o time_n be_v call_v tall_a some_o time_n fair_a and_o some_o time_n valiant_a etc._n etc._n so_o he_o mingle_a and_o consounded_a altogether_o teaching_n that_o god_n the_o father_n be_v sometime_o call_v the_o father_n sometime_o the_o son_n and_o soon_o time_n the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o we_o hold_v lean_v to_o the_o evidente_a truth_n of_o god_n word_n these_o three_o distinction_n these_o three_o sundry_a person_n unmingled_a and_o unconfound_v so_o that_o the_o father_n be_v not_o the_o son_n nor_o the_o son_n the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o the_o father_n as_o in_o the_o sun_n that_o shine_v over_o we_o we_o see_v three_o thing_n unconfound_v and_o unmingled_a for_o we_o consider_v the_o sun_n by_o itself_o the_o light_n by_o itself_o and_o the_o heat_n by_o itself_o the_o light_n be_v not_o the_o son_n nor_o the_o heat_n the_o light_n but_o they_o be_v three_o distinct_a thing_n i_o say_v nor_o this_o as_o though_o the_o material_a sun_n can_v sufficient_o express_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o godhead_n for_o no_o creature_n can_v express_v that_o mystery_n yea_o no_o corporal_a thing_n can_v express_v a_o spiritual_a and_o mind_o thing_n but_o i_o speak_v it_o to_o show_v you_o some_o way_n for_o the_o stayeng_a of_o unquiet_a head_n that_o sundry_a thing_n may_v be_v in_o one_o unconfound_v and_o unmingled_a that_o be_v everye_o one_o abide_v still_o in_o his_o proper_a nature_n now_o that_o these_o three_o distinction_n be_v in_o the_o godhead_n i_o will_v brieflye_v show_v you_o out_o of_o god_n word_n and_o first_o i_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o .14_o of_o this_o gospel_n the_o lord_n himself_o say_v i_o will_v entreat_v the_o father_n and_o he_o shall_v geve_v you_o another_o comforter_n this_o word_n another_o note_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o it_o can_v not_o be_v say_v of_o one_o and_o the_o same_o havige_v no_o difference_n that_o he_o be_v another_o besides_o himself_o again_o speak_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o .16_o cha_z he_o shall_v receive_v say_v the_o lord_n jesus_n of_o i_o and_o shall_v show_v forth_o unto_o you_o these_o word_n also_o declare_v a_o plain_a difference_n between_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o he_o can_v not_o have_v say_v he_o shall_v take_v of_o i_o if_o there_o have_v not_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o he_o that_o take_v and_o he_o from_o who_o he_o take_v now_o a_o difference_n both_o between_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n &_o also_o between_o the_o father_n &_o the_o holy_a ghost_n may_v be_v easy_o and_o plain_o gather_v out_o of_o these_o word_n when_o the_o comforter_n shall_v come_v who_o i_o will_v send_v unto_o you_o from_o the_o father_n the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o procee_v from_o the_o father_n he_o shall_v witness_v of_o i_o for_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o he_o that_o send_v and_o he_o that_o be_v send_v &_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o he_o that_o procee_v &_o he_o from_o who_o he_o procee_v and_o that_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n these_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n teach_v we_o sufficient_o i_o &_o the_o father_n hen_n esman_n be_v one_o for_o the_o plural_a number_n note_v two_o if_o there_o have_v be_v no_o distinction_n between_o the_o father_n &_o the_o son_n he_o shall_v have_v say_v i_o &_o the_o fatheram_n one_o &_o not_o be_v one_o these_o word_n also_o that_o we_o have_v in_o hand_n the_o word_n be_v with_o god_n prove_v the_o same_o inevitable_o as_o i_o have_v say_v here_o i_o must_v warn_v you_o of_o another_o error_n that_o when_o you_o hear_v that_o the_o word_n be_v with_o god_n &_o spring_v out_o of_o god_n the_o father_n you_o imagine_v not_o that_o he_o depart_v and_o be_v divide_v from_o the_o father_n &_o be_v a_o substance_n a_o part_n for_o our_o former_a example_n of_o the_o sun_n may_v teach_v you_o that_o that_o be_v not_o of_o necessite_a for_o light_n be_v with_o the_o sun_n &_o issue_v out_o of_o the_o sun_n &_o yet_o depart_v not_o ne_o be_v divide_v from_o the_o sun_n and_o though_o no_o example_n can_v shadow_v the_o matter_n unto_o we_o yet_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o god_n son_n be_v so_o with_o god_n and_o so_o beget_v of_o god_n and_o
