A41434	Goodman, Godfrey, 1583-1656.	The two great mysteries of Christian religion the ineffable Trinity, [the] vvonderful incarnation, explicated to the satisfaction of mans own naturall reason, and according to the grounds of philosophy / by G. G. G.	1653		.xml	application/xml	59582	1098	38	Man as he totally proceeds from God , so is he totally directed to God , but before such time as the word was made flesh , it should seem only the better part of man , the soul and the understanding , were capable of Gods word ; Alas what becomes of the sensible part ? shall the body and the flesh be excluded ? if it lookes for a portion in glory , needs it must have some earnest in grace ; body and soul ▪ they are both creatures alike , they are both parts of man alike . Do we not here see how all the three Persons did concur as in one nature , so in the same outward act of Creation ? From the creation of the World , where it is said ▪ Dii creavit , let us come to the creation of Man , for whom the world was created : and therefore being a work of so great moment , God seems to deliberate , and to enter into consultation : Certainly when we enter into counsel , it argues a diversity of persons , or at least it must imply a greater caution , that neither in words or acts there might be any mistake ; the rather , because it is the first time that ever God spake of himself , wherein frail man is usually more cautionate and wary then in any other discourse : and therefore this may much more be supposed in the most wise God ; let us then hear God with the greatest reverence , Faciamus hominem ad imaginem nostram , Let us make man according to our own image , the plural number , which argues Persons , is here twice implied , both in the act faciamus , let us make , and in the type or sampler , ad imaginem nostram , according to our own image .	cache/A41434.xml	txt/A41434.txt
