so_o that_o though_o there_o be_v but_o one_o supreme_a god_n the_o father_n yet_o he_o have_v constitute_v the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n two_o deputy_n 15._o under_o he_o call_v the_o son_n a_o

in_o we_o like_o two_o contrary_a prompt_v and_o rule_v power_n 12._o thus_o it_o be_v that_o the_o son_n as_o governor_n under_o the_o father_n of_o these_o two_o lesser_a god_n administer_v the_o

those_o place_n more_o rational_o aught_o to_o be_v understand_v that_o those_o god_n have_v principality_n and_o angel_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v sometime_o employ_v by_o they_o in_o office_n under_o they_o if_o you_o desire_v to_o see_v this_o matter_n more_o ample_o argue_v you_o must_v read_v mr._n bidell_n twelve_o argument_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o when_o he_o have_v make_v

gradative_a style_n in_o scripture_n and_o the_o apostle_n creed_n thus_o the_o father_n only_o be_v call_v god_n in_o our_o creed_n as_o only_o be_v so_o the_o son_n call_v lord_n as_o he_o only_o real_o be_v so_o under_o he_o 1_o cor._n 8._o 5_o 6._o and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n or_o spirit_n only_o style_v holy_a in_o opposition_n to_o the_o evil_a one._n and_o thus_o the_o divine_a benefit_n we_o receive_v as_o from_o the_o father_n be_v call_v love_n and_o operation_n from_o the_o son_n grace_n and_o administration_n but_o from_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o lesser_a power_n only_a gift_n and_o fellowship_n 1_o cor._n 12._o 4_o 5_o 6._o 2_o cor._n 13._o 14._o and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o all_o communication_n between_o the_o father_n and_o holy_a ghost_n be_v through_o the_o son_n prophecy_n cease_v while_o the_o son_n be_v incarnate_a next_o unto_o these_o as_o i_o have_v say_v succeed_v principality_n power_n and_o dominion_n now_o these_o by_o their_o very_a name_n show_v themselves_o to_o be_v as_o lesser_a deputy_n that_o be_v as_o governor_n of_o province_n and_o kingdom_n under_o the_o god_n of_o the_o world_n the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o satan_n and_o for_o these_o

that_o of_o this_o enough_o and_o if_o any_o thing_n remain_v it_o must_v be_v to_o explain_v the_o reasonableness_n of_o there_o hierarchy_n reflection_n i_o say_v therefore_o when_o we_o think_v to_o reason_n of_o spirit_n we_o must_v free_o allow_v ourselves_o a_o open_a and_o generous_a source_n of_o thought_n for_o as_o the_o air_n and_o much_o more_o they_o be_v too_o fine_a for_o the_o

gross_o after_o they_o as_o if_o we_o will_v feel_v they_o first_o then_o i_o lay_v it_o down_o as_o a_o rule_n that_o spirit_n be_v immortal_a and_o have_v no_o need_n of_o any_o nourishment_n nor_o do_v nor_o need_v we_o doubt_v this_o when_o we_o consider_v even_o how_o the_o sun_n have_v subsist_v how_o his_o unwearied_a ray_n impair_v he_o not_o and_o how_o so_o many_o thousand_o year_n have_v not_o exhaust_v his_o source_n of_o glow_a fuel_n 2_o lie_v to_o this_o i_o must_v add_v that_o i_o can_v but_o believe_v that_o like_a unto_o cloud_n in_o the_o air_n they_o gradual_o subsist_v in_o each_o other_o by_o the_o proportional_a purity_n of_o each_o other_o substance_n nor_o need_v this_o be_v strange_a to_o we_o for_o this_o be_v evident_a that_o god_n at_o least_o exist_v in_o all_o of_o they_o and_o rule_v they_o as_o easy_o as_o they_o by_o his_o permission_n can_v we_o and_o if_o so_o what_o hinder_v but_o that_o he_o may_v have_v deputy-god_n to_o do_v the_o like_a under_o he_o nor_o can_v it_o well_o be_v otherwise_o than_o that_o they_o shall_v rule_v one_o another_o thus_o through_o their_o gradual_a purity_n and_o inexistency_n for_o when_o we_o consider_v that_o devil_n be_v entire_o wicked_a and_o be_v not_o to_o be_v rule_v otherwise_o than_o through_o a_o real_a force_n there_o remain_v no_o doubt_n but_o that_o as_o they_o be_v in_o subjection_n to_o one_o another_o so_o it_o be_v through_o such_o a_o real_a force_n as_o this_o that_o neither_o art_n nor_o conspiracy_n can_v destroy_v but_o yet_o after_o all_o this_o methinks_v i_o hear_v hear_v you_o object_n that_o this_o be_v difficult_a to_o conceive_v that_o any_o creature_n shall_v be_v of_o so_o extensive_a a_o power_n and_o yet_o why_o so_o do_v not_o the_o sun_n do_v the_o same_o thing_n in_o the_o sensible_a and_o vegetable_a world_n and_o shall_v we_o think_v as_o general_a a_o power_n in_o a_o spirit_n that_o as_o easy_o pierce_v the_o thick_a body_n as_o he_o do_v the_o air_n impossible_a nay_o or_o so_o much_o as_o difficult_a in_o the_o rational_a world_n but_o what_o we_o know_v not_o how_o it_o be_v do_v no_o more_o we_o know_v not_o how_o god_n and_o our_o own_o spirit_n exist_v within_o we_o to_o conclude_v i_o shall_v only_o add_v that_o this_o be_v once_o grant_v there_o remain_v no_o difficulty_n to_o imagine_v how_o all_o our_o spiritual_a action_n be_v perform_v and_o how_o we_o be_v tempt_v thus_o only_o the_o supreme_a god_n and_o his_o son_n possible_o may_v see_v our_o thought_n the_o lesser_a god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o satan_n may_v only_o have_v power_n of_o imagery_n and_o prompt_v we_o while_o potentate_n and_o angel_n may_v only_o have_v power_n to_o rule_v and_o converse_v we_o but_o of_o this_o enough_o
