our_o nature_n have_v be_v a_o eclipse_n of_o his_o divine_a glory_n power_n and_o greatness_n in_o lay_v it_o aside_o as_o it_o be_v to_o suffer_v in_o his_o (null)_o nature_n for_o our_o sake_n that_o now_o the_o father_n will_v so_o translate_v his_o (null)_o nature_n from_o that_o mean_a estate_n and_o condition_n to_o one_o more_o glorious_a that_o may_v better_v suit_n with_o his_o infinite_a perfection_n and_o correspond_v with_o it_o but_o second_o this_o text_n most_o proper_o as_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o ought_v to_o be_v understand_v not_o of_o a_o deprivation_n of_o glory_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n but_o only_o of_o the_o exaltation_n of_o the_o (null)_o nature_n of_o christ_n as_o if_o christ_n shall_v have_v say_v and_o now_o o_o father_n glorify_v thou_o i_o in_o my_o (null)_o nature_n or_o glorify_v my_o (null)_o nature_n in_o take_v of_o it_o into_o that_o glory_n which_o my_o divine_a nature_n have_v with_o thou_o before_o the_o world_n be_v this_o i_o humble_o conceive_v be_v mean_v by_o the_o word_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n but_o take_v it_o in_o either_o sense_n it_o agree_v with_o the_o deity_n of_o jesus_n christ_n second_o i_o come_v more_o particular_o to_o answer_v the_o say_a objection_n one_a though_o as_o it_o be_v object_v it_o may_v be_v conclude_v from_o the_o word_n that_o because_o christ_n beg_v this_o glory_n of_o the_o father_n therefore_o he_o have_v it_o not_o in_o actual_a possession_n before_o yet_o this_o be_v only_o respect_v his_o (null)_o nature_n which_o oppose_v not_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o deity_n for_o though_o he_o be_v not_o yet_o supply_v by_o it_o or_o glorify_v john_n 7.39_o yet_o he_o then_o have_v the_o divine_a nature_n and_o be_v in_o union_n with_o it_o 2_o for_o any_o to_o say_v that_o that_o glory_n which_o christ_n have_v before_o the_o world_n be_v be_v only_o mean_v of_o god_n decree_n be_v a_o impose_v on_o the_o text_n that_o which_o it_o can_v bear_v for_o it_o do_v not_o run_v parallel_n with_o 2_o tim._n 1.9_o because_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o say_v that_o we_o be_v save_v and_o call_v according_a to_o his_o own_o purpose_n and_o grace_n which_o be_v give_v we_o in_o christ_n before_o the_o world_n begin_v and_o another_o thing_n to_o have_v glory_n before_o the_o world_n begin_v the_o one_o plain_o show_v that_o we_o be_v not_o actual_o call_v nor_o save_v before_o the_o world_n be_v but_o be_v then_o in_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n only_o and_o the_o other_o be_v positive_o speak_v of_o the_o glory_n that_o christ_n have_v in_o actual_a possession_n as_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n import_v and_o i_o hope_v these_o be_v sufficient_a answer_n to_o clear_v the_o text_n of_o these_o objection_n objection_n to_o coloss_n 1.16_o for_o by_o he_o be_v all_o thing_n create_v that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v in_o earth_n visible_a and_o invisible_a whether_o they_o be_v throne_n or_o dominion_n or_o principality_n or_o power_n all_o thing_n be_v create_v by_o he_o and_o for_o he_o first_o they_o say_v that_o this_o scripture_n speak_v of_o christ_n as_o a_o second_o or_o middle_a cause_n that_o god_n create_v all_o thing_n by_o jesus_n christ_n eph._n 3.9_o answer_n first_o i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v two_o way_n to_o be_v consider_v one_a essential_o as_o he_o be_v god_n and_o so_o all_o thing_n be_v of_o he_o and_o from_o he_o and_o create_v by_o he_o indifferent_o with_o other_o divine_a person_n two_o personal_o as_o he_o be_v the_o second_o person_n in_o the_o godhead_n and_o so_o be_v he_o also_o in_o the_o work_v of_o creation_n for_o all_o thing_n be_v of_o the_o father_n by_o the_o son_n through_o the_o spirit_n 1_o cor._n 8.6_o john_n 1.3_o gen._n 1.2_o psal_n 104.30_o eph._n 2.18_o for_o as_o the_o father_n be_v of_o himself_o a_o divine_a subsistent_n so_o he_o work_v from_o himself_o and_o as_o the_o son_n be_v of_o the_o father_n so_o he_o work_v from_o the_o father_n and_o as_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v of_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n so_o he_o work_v from_o they_o both_o yet_o neither_o of_o they_o exist_v or_o work_v before_o each_o other_o in_o time_n but_o do_v natural_o and_o necessary_o work_v together_o for_o when_o we_o say_v the_o son_n be_v the_o second_o person_n in_o the_o deity_n we_o grant_v the_o father_n to_o be_v the_o first_o neither_o in_o time_n nor_o excellency_n of_o nature_n to_o the_o other_o divine_a person_n but_o in_o respect_n to_o pre-eminence_n according_a to_o his_o peculiar_a manner_n of_o subsistence_n and_o incommunicable_a property_n so_o also_o the_o divine_a person_n have_v their_o order_n or_o pre-eminence_n of_o work_v according_a to_o their_o order_n or_o pre-eminence_n of_o subsistence_n and_o incommunicable_a property_n in_o the_o divine_a essence_n second_o they_o say_v that_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o heaven_n and_o on_o the_o earth_n be_v not_o use_v for_o all_o thing_n simple_o and_o absolute_o appear_v because_o the_o apostle_n say_v by_o he_o god_n have_v reconcile_v all_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o on_o earth_n and_o also_o in_o the_o word_n themselves_o it_o be_v not_o say_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v create_v by_o christ_n but_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o the_o heaven_n and_o on_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o sum_n of_o what_o they_o understand_v by_o the_o text_n be_v that_o after_o god_n have_v raise_v christ_n from_o the_o dead_a and_o have_v give_v glory_n to_o he_o all_o the_o thing_n both_o in_o the_o heaven_n and_o on_o the_o earth_n be_v by_o he_o reform_v and_o reduce_v to_o another_o state_n and_o condition_n in_o that_o he_o become_v the_o head_n of_o angel_n and_o man_n who_o before_o acknowledge_v god_n only_o for_o their_o lord_n second_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v one_a that_o if_o we_o can_v reconcile_v the_o word_n create_v in_o ver_fw-la 16._o so_o as_o that_o natural_o its_o signification_n do_v import_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n with_o the_o word_n reconcile_v in_o ver_fw-la 20._o then_o indeed_o there_o be_v some_o reason_n to_o acquiesce_v with_o they_o in_o their_o sense_n but_o as_o the_o word_n have_v different_a signification_n so_o they_o signify_v to_o we_o different_a thing_n two_o though_o reconcile_a all_o thing_n to_o god_n by_o jesus_n christ_n whether_o in_o heaven_n or_o in_o earth_n must_v be_v understand_v in_o a_o limit_a sense_n yet_o there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o nor_o so_o good_a reason_n for_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v create_v by_o jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v so_o consider_v for_o those_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v reconcile_v be_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v reconcileable_a by_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o cross_n whether_o in_o heaven_n or_o in_o earth_n and_o not_o all_o thing_n absolute_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n for_o the_o evil_a angel_n be_v not_o reconcilable_a but_o in_o ver_fw-la 16._o the_o case_n be_v much_o different_a and_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v simple_o and_o absolute_o that_o by_o jesus_n christ_n all_o thing_n be_v create_v for_o the_o word_n be_v positive_a by_o he_o be_v all_o thing_n create_v that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v in_o earth_n and_o because_o we_o shall_v not_o misapprehend_v the_o apostle_n meaning_n he_o explain_v himself_o more_o full_o to_o we_o that_o they_o be_v all_o thing_n both_o visible_a and_o invisible_a whether_o they_o be_v throne_n or_o dominion_n or_o principality_n or_o power_n and_o sure_o this_o can_v be_v mean_v of_o a_o reformation_n or_o renovation_n of_o all_o thing_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n because_o the_o good_a angel_n never_o want_v such_o reformation_n neither_o be_v all_o throne_n or_o dominion_n or_o principality_n or_o power_n either_o of_o evil_a angel_n that_o be_v invisible_a or_o of_o wicked_a man_n on_o earth_n then_o renew_v or_o so_o reduce_v by_o reformation_n as_o that_o christ_n become_v their_o head_n and_o be_v so_o acknowledge_v by_o they_o for_o though_o christ_n become_v the_o head_n of_o his_o own_o church_n yet_o the_o world_n do_v not_o know_v he_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o to_o own_v he_o for_o their_o sovereign_a lord_n and_o to_o yield_v true_a and_o sincere_a obedience_n to_o his_o law_n for_o under_o the_o conduct_n of_o satan_n the_o dragon_n heathen_a empire_n make_v head_n against_o christ_n and_o all_o that_o profess_v his_o holy_a name_n and_o though_o something_o may_v be_v say_v that_o in_o the_o reign_n of_o constantine_n the_o great_a there_o be_v a_o mighty_a reformation_n make_v in_o the_o empire_n of_o the_o world_n yet_o this_o can_v answer_v the_o import_n of_o the_o word_n for_o by_o he_o be_v all_o thing_n already_o create_a they_o be_v not_o to_o make_v in_o future_a time_n but_o they_o be_v already_o do_v
needless_a for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o frame_v the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n or_o else_o that_o the_o divine_a nature_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v idle_a will_v you_o grant_v then_o which_o by_o this_o your_o reason_n must_v needs_o follow_v because_o christ_n be_v conceive_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n therefore_o god_n the_o father_n be_v idle_a and_o not_o the_o prime_a worker_n of_o this_o marvellous_a conception_n what_o be_v here_o cite_v out_o of_o this_o learned_a man_n sufficient_o show_v the_o weakness_n of_o this_o objection_n against_o the_o deity_n of_o jesus_n christ_n

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 it_o can_v be_v right_o infer_v that_o because_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v here_o rank_v with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n therefore_o he_o be_v equal_a to_o they_o by_o this_o account_n when_o the_o apostle_n 1_o tim._n 5.21_o say_v i_o charge_v thou_o gr._n i_o obtest_v before_o god_n and_o the_o

and_o the_o son_n this_o will_v imply_v that_o the_o elect_a angel_n be_v equal_a with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n answer_n there_o be_v not_o the_o same_o reason_n to_o imply_v from_o this_o of_o timothy_n that_o the_o elect_a angel_n be_v equal_a to_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n as_o there_o be_v for_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v equality_n with_o they_o from_o matth._n 28._o for_o if_o we_o right_o consider_v these_o two_o scripture_n we_o may_v easy_o see_v that_o they_o be_v not_o parallel_n but_o that_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o the_o elect_a angel_n be_v join_v together_o with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n upon_o far_o different_a account_n the_o one_o be_v rank_v together_o not_o as_o equal_v with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n but_o because_o they_o be_v
