first_o and_o clear_a notion_n and_o principle_n of_o mankind_n it_o must_v be_v say_v that_o nothing_o have_v not_o only_a proportion_n with_o something_o but_o also_o that_o nothing_o and_o something_o have_v the_o same_o property_n and_o work_v the_o same_o effect_n and_o by_o consequence_n that_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n or_o distance_n between_o such_o contradiction_n as_o nothing_o and_o something_o be_v and_o not_o be_v existent_a and_o not_o existent_a q._n i_o see_v that_o the_o existence_n and_o unity_n of_o god_n be_v much_o more_o clear_a than_o atheist_n pretend_v but_o i_o think_v the_o same_o argument_n whereby_o you_o prove_v god_n unity_n conclude_v the_o impossibility_n of_o the_o trinity_n for_o if_o there_o can_v not_o be_v two_o or_o more_o thing_n infinite_o perfect_a it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o either_o the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n be_v not_o thing_n or_o being_n distinct_a one_o from_o the_o other_o or_o if_o they_o be_v that_o they_o be_v not_o infinite_o perfect_a a._n to_o this_o question_n or_o objection_n there_o be_v two_o answer_n the_o first_o and_o best_a be_v that_o god_n be_v not_o infinite_o perfect_a if_o such_o imperfect_a creature_n as_o we_o know_v ourselves_o to_o be_v can_v comprehend_v his_o excellency_n and_o mystery_n and_o though_o as_o rational_a creature_n we_o ought_v even_o in_o what_o we_o believe_v be_v direct_v by_o reason_n yet_o that_o reason_n which_o be_v our_o guide_n can_v lead_v we_o no_o further_o in_o many_o thing_n than_o to_o persuade_v we_o submit_v to_o credible_a authority_n which_o be_v the_o testimony_n of_o a_o church_n or_o congregation_n authentik_o authorise_v by_o god_n to_o bear_v witness_n that_o he_o reveal_v such_o and_o such_o mystery_n though_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o mystery_n be_v not_o intelligible_a or_o visible_a to_o our_o human_a understanding_n it_o be_v want_v of_o understanding_n to_o doubt_v of_o they_o or_o to_o deny_v they_o because_o there_o be_v not_o any_o one_o truth_n more_o clear_a to_o we_o nor_o more_o obvious_a by_o undeniable_a experiment_n to_o all_o mankind_n than_o this_o that_o there_o be_v many_o truth_n whereof_o our_o human_a understanding_n can_v give_v no_o reason_n now_o if_o this_o be_v so_o in_o human_a and_o ordinary_a thing_n why_o shall_v we_o presume_v or_o pretend_v that_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o trinity_n be_v not_o true_a because_o we_o forsooth_o can_v not_o comprehend_v its_o truth_n the_o second_o answer_n be_v this_o the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n have_v but_o one_o be_v or_o nature_n common_a to_o all_o three_o and_o therefore_o they_o be_v equaly_a powerful_a equaly_a wise_a equaly_a good_a and_o eternal_a and_o by_o consequence_n but_o one_o god_n but_o because_o this_o divine_a nature_n or_o essence_n have_v three_o different_a manner_n of_o be_v and_o that_o every_o one_o of_o these_o three_o manner_n be_v identify_v with_o and_o inseparable_a from_o the_o deity_n though_o distinct_a one_o from_o the_o other_o there_o must_v be_v three_o distinct_a person_n the_o first_o be_v call_v the_o father_n the_o second_o be_v call_v the_o son_n the_o three_o be_v call_v the_o holy_a ghost_n this_o may_v be_v explain_v by_o two_o similitude_n 1._o be_v that_o of_o a_o body_n which_o have_v three_o dimension_n longitude_n latitude_n and_o profundity_n distinct_a one_o from_o the_o other_o but_o not_o from_o the_o body_n 2._o be_v that_o ordinary_a example_n of_o our_o soul_n which_o be_v but_o one_o be_v though_o it_o have_v three_o different_a manner_n of_o be_v the_o first_o manner_n be_v to_o know_v the_o second_o be_v to_o wish_v or_o will_v the_o three_o be_v to_o remember_v though_o these_o three_o manner_n or_o mode_n of_o being_n be_v very_o different_a in_o themselves_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o thing_n distinct_a from_o the_o soul_n q._n but_o how_o can_v this_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o trinity_n a._n thus._n it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o in_o the_o deity_n we_o may_v consider_v and_o true_o it_o be_v so_o the_o divine_a nature_n first_o as_o have_v from_o itself_o alone_o all_o knowledge_n and_o all_o perfection_n 2._o this_o same_o deity_n may_v be_v consider_v as_o know_v or_o reflect_v upon_o its_o own_o knowledge_n and_o perfection_n 3._o it_o may_v be_v consider_v as_o infinite_o love_v itself_o and_o its_o infinite_a perfection_n the_o deity_n therefore_o or_o the_o divine_a nature_n as_o it_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o infinite_a fecundity_n and_o the_o original_a principle_n or_o giver_n be_v call_v the_o father_n the_o same_o deity_n as_o it_o be_v consider_v not_o the_o fountain_n but_o as_o if_o it_o be_v the_o river_n that_o flow_v from_o that_o fountain_n or_o the_o channel_n that_o receive_v its_o own_o knowledge_n and_o perfection_n be_v call_v the_o son_n the_o same_o deity_n as_o it_o be_v infinite_o belove_v by_o the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n be_v call_v the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o holy_a ghost_n proceed_v as_o well_o from_o the_o son_n as_o from_o the_o father_n because_o each_o of_o those_o two_o person_n equaly_a love_n one_o a_o other_o and_o the_o deity_n whence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o greek_n error_n of_o the_o procession_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n from_o the_o father_n alone_o and_o not_o from_o the_o son_n be_v not_o only_a blasphemy_n but_o nonsense_n because_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o such_o a_o father_n shall_v not_o love_v such_o a_o son_n and_o that_o such_o a_o son_n shall_v not_o love_v his_o father_n they_o both_o have_v the_o same_o nature_n and_o the_o same_o perfection_n this_o be_v sufficient_a of_o so_o sublime_a a_o mystery_n the_o truth_n whereof_o though_o it_o can_v not_o be_v clear_o comprehend_v by_o so_o imperfect_a creature_n as_o we_o be_v yet_o our_o human_a reason_n may_v with_o some_o probability_n and_o proportion_n show_v that_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n

a._n sensation_n be_v a_o cooperation_n or_o a_o joint_a operation_n of_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n through_o the_o organization_n or_o ministry_n of_o our_o sense_n if_o the_o soul_n or_o its_o

by_o they_o or_o believe_v our_o sense_n and_o by_o consequence_n the_o soul_n be_v immortal_a because_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o its_o independency_n of_o

the_o help_n of_o the_o body_n and_o if_o it_o can_v act_v independent_o of_o the_o help_n of_o the_o body_n it_o may_v exist_v also_o without_o help_n of_o the_o same_o and_o so_o the_o soul_n be_v

this_o argument_n only_o prove_v that_o the_o soul_n may_v act_v and_o by_o consequence_n exist_v independent_o of_o the_o body_n for_o some_o rhyme_n but_o prove_v not_o that_o it_o may_v exist_v for_o ever_o independent_o of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o every_o existen_v ●ce_n but_o a_o everlasting_a existence_n independent_a of_o the_o boby_n a._n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o everlasting_a existence_n without_o necessity_n of_o the_o body_n help_n or_o support_v and_o as_o true_a it_o be_v that_o

not_o be_v pretend_v to_o be_v a_o dream_n or_o delusion_n unless_o you_o will_v maintain_v that_o the_o clear_a reason_n be_v the_o great_a folly_n and_o by_o consequence_n destroy_v the_o
