De Trinitate contra Socinu[s].

[Our] Savi[o]r came into ye world to teach men a true Religion as [illeg.] ?oon to ye false ones wch then prevail'd therefore this religion teach ye worship of ye true God, but this religion teaches ye [worship] of Christ go: he is a true God, for ye proof of ye minor 5.23 Hebr: 1.6. Reve: 4.13 Phil: 2.9. obj, may not God make this worship to Christ tho a creature, A/ no. 1 because [?ch] said he will not give his glory to another Isa: 42.8. against ye nature of divine worship to be giv'n to a creature [inf]initely above any of his creatures, whilst therefore we suppose minds a creature to be infinitely distant from God how is it ?s to give ye same worship to God & to a creature, so then if worship be required by ye Xtian doctrine to be given to X those expressions yt speak of his being one wth ye father are to be understood figuratively.

Under ye Socinians lessen ye natural knowledge & power of his other infinite perfec[ti]ons ye be making ye notion of a God as possible a creature might be in a nearer capacity of be- ?ide God. 'Tis more difficult in point of reason to conceive man may be made God then to believe God may be made [man] here ye only difficulty is to concieve how an infinite being may united to a finite as to make one person, & no wonder if we ?aled in ye man[n]er of yt seing wee find it difficult to explain ? soul is united to ye body. But ye other may overthrow the ? ye other ?re not those wds Jn 10 from 30 to 39 to be understood figur[ative]ly? ? Jews certainly understood ym [them] in a literal sense & therefor ac- ?d ym blasphemy. But upon all those discourses betwn X & ye jews ?d Jn 5. Jn 8 & Jn 10. this is observable yt tho O[u]r savio[r] knew ? did account it blasphemy in him to pretend to be equal to or ? God, yet he never setts himself to correct this as a mistake in ym.
