We believe that the Holy Ghost, who is the third Person in the Holy Trinity, is very God: not made, not created, not begotten, but proceeding from both the Father, and the Son, by a certain mean unknown unto man, and unspeakable: and that it is his property to mollify, & loften the hardness of mans hart, when he is once received thereinto, either by the wholesome preaching of the Gospel, or by any other way: that he doth give men light, and guide them unto the knowledge of God: to all way of Truth: to newness of the whole life: and to everlasting hope of Salvation.
