SECT. III. Of the Operations and Principles as compared.
§. 1. Though Power, Wisdom and Goodness or Love, all co-operate by the spirit of Christ; yet in the work of Mans Recovery their Impressions are not equal. But as POWER with Wisdom and Love, more appeared in the CREATION, (as is aforesaid;) so WISDOM with Power, conveying Love, appeareth more in our Redemption; and LOVE with Power and Wisdom is most conspicuous and illustrious in our Renewed state, begun indeed by Sanctification, but perfect in our GLORIFICATION. *The Omnipotent Father (as is said) Createth Nature, with the Son and Holy Spirit. The Son, the Wisdom of the Father, is the Physician of souls, and healeth them by SKILL with Power and Love. The Holy Ghost, called by the Schoolmen, The LOVE of God, dwelling and working peculiarly in us to and in perfection, with power and Wisdom, is the PERFECTION of the soul: And so Natura, Medela, Sanitas, are the various effects of the Divine operation.
