Ger. c. 56. Nothing is but God and his will, and this will is God, and what-ever is in God is God, and nothing is but God alone, 1.

The Son of God made himself of no reputation and descended to be a man and nothing, then man is nothing. so Bright-stare.

The old Adam and disobedience or sin, is nothing, but when the creature ascribeth to it self Being, 1and life and essence and goodness. So sin is nothing, but I, my self, Egoity and such like and the new Adam or Christ is nothing but obedience and an ascribing of all to God.
