body_n into_o immortal_a life_n so_o that_o each_o person_n in_o the_o sacred_a trinity_n be_v peculiar_o concern_v in_o the_o salvation_n of_o mankind_n and_o we_o can_v true_o believe_v the_o great_a fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o salvation_n by_o christ_n without_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o holy_a trinity_n of_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n one_o eternal_a and_o infinite_a god_n the_o godhead_n of_o the_o father_n be_v acknowledge_v by_o all_o but_o whoever_o deny_v the_o godhead_n of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n overthrow_v the_o whole_a doctrine_n of_o

who_o make_v christ_n to_o be_v either_o the_o most_o excellent_a creature_n as_o the_o arian_n do_v or_o a_o mere_a man_n as_o the_o socinian_o do_v mighty_o lessen_v the_o grace_n and_o goodness_n
