The Father is the afirst person of the glorious Trinity, *having neither his being nor beginning of any other, but of himself, begetting his ⟨p. 11⟩Son and together with his Son, sending forth the Holy Ghost from everlasting. The Persons which are of the Father, are those, who in respect of their Personal existence have the whole Divine Essence eternally communicated unto them from the Father; and those are either from the Father alone, as the Son, or from the Father and the Son, as the Holy Ghost.
