That is peculiar to God, and to those that are lead with the Spirit of God, that are like him, they have a communicative diffusive goodness, that loves to spread it self, Seek my face. I am good in my self, but I desire to shine on you, to impart my goodness to you.
That is peculiar to God, and to those that are lead with the Spirit of God, that are like him, they have a communicative diffsive goodnesse, that loves to spread it selfe, Seeke my face. I am good in my selfe, but I desire to shine on you, to impart my goodnesse to you.
If God had not a communicative, spreading 1goodness, he would never have created the world: the Father, Son, and Holy-ghost, were happy in themselves, and enjoyed one another before the world was, but that God delights to communicate, and spread his goodness, there had never been a Creation, nor a Redemption. God useth his creatures, not for ⟨p. 143⟩defect of power, that he can do nothing without them: but for the spreading of his goodness: and thereupon comes all the subordination of one creature to another, and all to him.
