     summary: For here [ Father ] must not be taken personally for the Father , in opposition to the Son , and the Holy Ghost : But essentially for God the Father , Son and Holy Ghost , in opposition to that word [ Man ] of that Day and Hour , knows no Man — but the Father only ; therefore these words [ the Father only ] exclude the Son from this Knowledge as Man , but not as God. 1. That in the Scriptures [ Father ] doth often signifie God essentially , including , Son and Holy Ghost , who are of , and from , the Father .

     summary: As for that common evasion , applyed to Christ as he is God , and as he is man , it is contrary both to reason and Scripture , to limitate by so great a disparity , as Hos. 11. 9. for I am God and not man , Isa. 31. 3. 40. 17. implying contradiction , as he is , and as he is not , and is but a presumptuous begging of that which is in question , and if it be illogicall to limitate by a superiour , or subordinate ( as the Pope errs , not as he is Pope , but as he is man ) it is much more absurd to limitate by a disparate , and that of infinite disparity , to omit that Luke 2. 40. this I say to the shame of such as shut their eyes against the most illustrious and authenticall testimonies of all or the most memorable and approved times , places , and persons ; hardly to be brought that ever they had greater grand Fathers , &c. not allowing any more of authentick and classick testimonies , then the most vain and improbable traditions amongst men ; nor to beleeve the Histories of Moses , Christ , &c. because they had not the happy houre of St. Thomas , or others to be seeing , and sensible witnesses , as Iohn 20. 27. 1 Iohn 1. 1. The Lord God of his most gracious goodnesse grant , that the more able and ingenuous , like true and trusty souldiers of Jesus Christ , whose eyes the God of this world hath not blinded ; would do their utmost endevour to reduce the rest from that long captivity of our spirituall Babylon , under that Man of sin ; and that God would prosper their endevours that are studious of the sincere Truth ; and strive for the same to death , as the son of Syrach , 4. 28 ; and defend justice for their life , to the exaltation of their Nation , as Prov. 14. 34 ; that releeve the oppressed , &c. as Isa. 1. 7 ; that so wee may enjoy the good things of the Land .

In reference to what is Evil , here man is left entirely to his own freedom , the guilt of which cannot be transferred upon the decrees of God , which are not in any wise concerned in them ; but the shame and blame of all must be laid at mans own door , and imputed only to his own freedom .

The true and short account of the business is this ; Things being in the state and condition as I represent in my Epistle and Preface , I looked upon it as a Duty incumbent upon me as a Christian , with what little strength God hath given me , to lay it out in the Defence of the most just and best Cause in the World , namely , the due Honour of the most holy and adorable Trinity , and the Divinity of our blessed Lord and Saviour , and of the Holy Ghost , which so many Legions of Martyrs have freely shed their Blood , and gloriously laid down their Lives for : I went not about to support it with enticing Words of Man's Wisdom , or with studied , affected , pompous Expressions , which only bad Causes stand in need of ; but as our Faith doth not stand in the Wisdom of men , but in the Power of God , so I endeavoured with good Arguments drawn out of his Word , which hitherto remain unanswered , to confute Heresie and Sophistry : One must not so much mind Words and Stile , when the Question is about Things .

     summary: But the whole Mystery of this Latitude and Simplicity of Faith which he pleads for , is that plausible Project ( which has been so much talked of of late : ) to confine our selves to Scripture Terms and Phrases ; to use none but Scripture Words in our Creeds and Prayers , without any Explication in what sense those words are to be understood : As he tells us , Certainly we may Worship God right well , yea , most acceptably , in words of his own Stamp and Coinage . It alters the way of our Salvation , as much as Faith in the Blood and Sacrifice of the Son of God , to expiate our Sins , differs from believing a great and excellent Prophet , and obeying his Laws .

     summary: It would be too tedious , and not very pertinent here , to run thorough these things ; but I am sure , for all his haste , the Dean has not in this place imputed any thing to the Socinians , but what they avowedly and in Print maintain ; for it is evident that the Socinians do deny the Meritorious Sacrifice , and the Meritorious Intercession of our Saviour ; that they do also deny that the Eternal Son of God Offered himself ; that God demonstrated his Love to us by sending his own Son in a proper sense , as opposed to a mere Man , or Created Spirit ; and consequently , they do deny the Humility and Condescension of the Eternal Son of God , in becoming Man , &c. and therefore these things are not iniquitously imputed to the Socinians , which yet are the very things which the Dean's Discourse imputes to them ; and therefore he has no reason to add , That some men Write against them without understanding them ; but I am afraid 't is too true , That some men Apologize for them without understanding th●m . In the next Section he confesses himself an 〈◊〉 ●o such open Disputes between Protestants , as only Pu●li●●●o the common Enemies the Divisions of the Protestants .
