1. By Nature
He is a Spirit. I will not trouble you with the diverse acception of this word, Spirit. There is a Divine, Humane, Angelical, Diabolical Spirit: yet are not these all. Let every thing that hath breath, praise the Lord: that is, that hath a Spirit. It is observed, 1that when this Article, The, is prefixed to Spirit; and no attribute subjoined, that may denominate or distinguish it; it is meant of the third Person in 2Trinity, the holy Ghost.
