The first is, what is meant by God? Answ. The father, the first person. Eph. 1. 3. Blessed he God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 2. Cor. 1. 3. and Joh. 20. 17. And he is called God, not because he partakes more of the godhead then the son, or the §10h. Ghost: but because he is the first in order, of the three divine persons: and he is the beginning of the son, and the H. ghost; and hath no beginning of his own person: because he doth not receive the godhead by communication from any other. In this respect he is called God more commonly then the son, or the holy Ghost.
