Sect. 19. Hence the scripture speaks not of any thing between God and us, but what is founded on this Account. The Father worketh, the Son worketh, and the Holy Ghost worketh. The Father worketh not but by the Son and his spirit; The Son & Spirit work not, but from the Father. The Father Glorifieth the Son; the Son Glorifieth the Father; and the Holy Ghost glorifieth ⟨p. 138⟩them both. Before the foundation of the world, the Son was with the Father, and rejoiced in his peculiar work for the Redemption of mankind. At the Creation, the Father made all things, but by the Son, and the Power of the Spirit. In Redemption the Father sends the Son; the Son by his own condescension undertakes the work, and is incarnate by the Holy Ghost. The Father as was said, communicates his love, and all the fruits of it unto us by the Son; as the Holy Ghost doth the merits, and fruits of the mediation of the Son. The Father is not known nor worshipped, but by and in the Son; Nor Father or Son but by the Holy Ghost, &c.
