Of this real communication of the essential proprieties of God, we have also written a several treatise, in the book, which shall be entitled, Of the incarnation of the son of God, upon the words to Phil. 2. Who when he was in the form of God &c. Unto which, we refer the reader, who so he be that desireth a further ⟨p. 277⟩explanation of this doctrine. Surely the Lord Jesus, when he said, No man knoweth the son, but the father, and no man knoweth the father but the son, and he to whom the son will reveal him: he plainly excepted his created mind from that essential knowledge, wherewith the father knoweth, that is, (as the schoolmen speak,) comprehendeth the son, and the son the father: teaching that what knowledge soever creatures have in themselves concerning God, the same is some way revealed unto them: and therefore such knowledge is not the essential & infinite knowledge, which is in God: but a created, and a finite or determinate knowledge.
