and_o error_n the_o trinitarian_n may_v be_v guilty_a of_o yet_o it_o be_v certain_a they_o can_v be_v guilty_a of_o great_a not_o indeed_o so_o great_a boldness_n and_o folly_n as_o our_o accountant_a be_v as_o we_o have_v see_v but_o now_o in_o his_o last_o argument_n for_o i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o they_o enter_v into_o judgement_n with_o god_n nor_o charge_v the_o most_o high_a foolish_o nor_o with_o folly_n and_o i_o pray_v sir_n upon_o second_o thought_n tell_v i_o which_o be_v the_o great_a folly_n and_o boldness_n to_o believe_v what_o god_n declare_v of_o himself_o to_o be_v reasonable_a and_o true_a though_o we_o do_v not_o understand_v it_o or_o to_o give_v god_n the_o lie_n and_o and_o tell_v he_o that_o what_o he_o declare_v of_o himself_o be_v false_a unreasonable_a and_o absurd_a because_o we_o do_v not_o understand_v it_o such_o a_o answer_n as_o this_o from_o a_o servant_n to_o a_o master_n will_v be_v account_v impudent_a boldness_n and_o we_o see_v there_o be_v nothing_o more_o common_a among_o man_n who_o understanding_n and_o reason_n differ_v great_o yet_o far_o enough_o be_v they_o from_o differ_v infinite_o yet_o among_o man_n it_o be_v no_o new_a thing_n for_o the_o wise_a and_o learned_a to_o understand_v and_o know_v that_o to_o be_v true_a and_o reasonable_a which_o the_o more_o ignorant_a be_v rather_o more_o ready_a to_o

4._o 19_o i_o have_v now_o do_v with_o my_o short_a accountant_a the_o rest_n of_o his_o book_n be_v mere_o historical_a of_o what_o do_v pass_v between_o he_o and_o b._n r._n s._n and_o the_o church_n of_o which_o he_o be_v a_o member_n but_o i_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v with_o that_o my_o business_n be_v only_o to_o contend_v for_o that_o faith_n which_o be_v once_o deliver_v to_o the_o saint_n and_o to_o believe_v the_o truth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o jesus_n i_o shall_v therefore_o now_o take_v a_o view_n of_o our_o nameless_a author_n again_o and_o see_v if_o he_o can_v produce_v any_o sound_a reason_n to_o persuade_v we_o to_o deny_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o i_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o it_o be_v as_o great_a a_o denial_n of_o he_o to_o deny_v he_o to_o be_v as_o he_o be_v god_n over_o all_o bless_a for_o ever_o more_o as_o it_o be_v to_o deny_v he_o to_o be_v our_o redeemer_n for_o indeed_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o isarel_n be_v the_o redeemer_n thereof_o but_o on_o a_o second_o view_n of_o our_o author_n in_o his_o divine_a unity_n assert_v i_o do_v not_o find_v any_o other_o reason_n than_o what_o i_o have_v already_o consider_v and_o find_v in_o my_o accountant_a save_v only_o he_o be_v somewhat_o large_a and_o in_o his_o 10_o page_n column_n 1._o he_o will_v deny_v the_o divinity_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o prove_v it_o too_o if_o he_o didbut_n know_v how_o from_o this_o argument_n that_o man_n be_v make_v after_o god_n own_o image_n now_o say_v he_o if_o god_n be_v a_o trinity_n and_o man_n be_v his_o image_n we_o may_v find_v a_o image_n of_o that_o trinity_n in_o ourselves_o but_o he_o exclude_v the_o body_n from_o any_o part_n of_o this_o image_n which_o may_v look_v tolerable_a enough_o at_o first_o view_n because_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n and_o if_o he_o have_v stop_v here_o he_o may_v have_v carry_v his_o sophistry_n off_o pretty_a fair_a but_o the_o wit_n of_o our_o day_n must_v over_o shoot_v themselves_o he_o tell_v you_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o body_n be_v exclude_v because_o say_v he_o it_o be_v imperfect_a and_o there_o be_v no_o imperfection_n with_o god_n good_a sir_n do_v you_o expect_v to_o find_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n a_o perfect_a image_n of_o god_n when_o you_o first_o enter_v on_o this_o argument_n real_o you_o may_v well_o have_v spare_v your_o pain_n here_o and_o have_v give_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n the_o lie_n once_o more_o and_o you_o shall_v have_v as_o good_a reason_n so_o to_o do_v as_o you_o have_v to_o give_v our_o lord_n himself_o the_o lie_n as_o you_o do_v in_o your_o 15_o page_n column_n 2._o where_o you_o say_v the_o same_o worship_n which_o be_v due_a to_o the_o father_n be_v not_o to_o be_v give_v to_o christ_n but_o that_o which_o may_v be_v give_v to_o a_o creature_n for_o god_n sake_n wherein_o you_o do_v in_o plain_a english_a give_v truth_n itself_o the_o lie_n for_o he_o hth_n tell_v we_o that_o all_o man_n shall_v honour_v the_o son_n even_o as_o they_o honour_v the_o father_n as_o have_v be_v already_o prove_v by_o scripture_n john_n 5._o 23._o and_o by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o worshipper_n in_o heaven_n but_o if_o you_o have_v be_v sincere_o look_v for_o a_o faint_a resemblance_n of_o the_o image_n of_o god_n in_o man_n as_o a_o trinity_n to_o say_v nothing_o of_o that_o moral_a likeness_n that_o god_n at_o first_o stamp_v on_o man_n nature_n of_o himself_o which_o consist_v in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n which_o indeed_o be_v the_o great_a resemblance_n in_o man_n to_o god_n and_o yet_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o angel_n be_v every_o whit_n as_o much_o like_a god_n as_o in_o this_o sense_n man_n be_v therefore_o it_o must_v be_v something_o else_o in_o the_o make_v of_o man_n that_o do_v bear_v some_o image_n of_o god_n for_o which_o cause_n it_o be_v say_v he_o make_v man_n in_o his_o own_o image_n and_o if_o you_o have_v not_o wilful_o shut_v your_o eye_n you_o can_v not_o but_o see_v that_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o body_n soul_n and_o spirit_n in_o man_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n pray_v for_o the_o thessalonian_n 1_o thes_n 5._o 23._o that_o they_o may_v be_v sanctify_v throughout_o in_o body_n soul_n and_o spirit_n and_o if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o body_n soul_n and_o spirit_n in_o man_n than_o here_o be_v some_o faint_a resemblance_n in_o man_n of_o a_o trinity_n in_o god_n i_o say_v a_o faint_a resemblance_n for_o i_o be_o not_o so_o void_a of_o reason_n as_o to_o think_v that_o a_o finite_a weak_a man_n can_v be_v a_o perfect_a image_n of_o god_n yet_o our_o author_n to_o show_v what_o a_o talon_n of_o wit_n he_o have_v spend_v all_o his_o 10_o page_n both_o colume_n and_o part_n of_o 11_o to_o prove_v that_o which_o no_o body_n deny_v or_o that_o which_o be_v foreign_a to_o the_o purpose_n but_o in_o his_o 11_o page_n his_o wit_n run_v over_o and_o his_o invention_n will_v run_v too_o fast_o for_o his_o reason_n do_v what_o he_o can_v for_o he_o say_v that_o can_v be_v call_v generation_n or_o origination_n which_o never_o begin_v to_o be_v generate_v or_o originate_v and_o if_o he_o have_v stop_v here_o he_o may_v have_v dance_v in_o the_o dark_a and_o they_o that_o have_v no_o eye_n can_v never_o have_v see_v he_o but_o the_o gentleman_n invention_n hang_v in_o the_o light_n of_o his_o reason_n he_o tell_v we_o the_o reason_n be_v that_o which_o never_o begin_v to_o be_v a_o do_v be_v never_o do_v and_o therefore_o eternal_a generation_n must_v be_v eternal_a nonsense_n well_o argue_v most_o
