?ll ye main difficulty in explaining ye doctrine of ye Trinity by reason may be reduc'd to these 2 How there can be 3 to any & but one God How these can agree in a 3d & not agree among thems. ? wee say one Individual nature may be communicated to ? unless wee suppose yt ye divine nature cannot communicate ?fter no manner yt a created nature but wherever there ? distinction ye number may be multiplied tho yt subjt be but ? we say ye soul has 3 faculties understanding, will, & memory ?out ye least absurdity wee may say these 3 are one Socinany objt yt every person is an individual being & there- ? distinct persons must be 3 individual beings ie: 3 Gods A person 2 things. something common wth others of ye same nature as 3 ? one of ye same nature tho they be 3 persons 2 something ? & incommunicate to any other so yt Jn cannot be Peter nor ? ames. Now if wee are to much puzled in assigning ye Pow'r Individuality in created beings wee have ye less reason to unsatisfied if we cannot clear ye diffr'ces between Nature & ? an infinite Being. Distinguish betwn wt wee have no ?elieve, & wt wee have power to conceive, wee have reason to a God tho we cannot concieve his astral attributes wee must him to ve eternal & Omniprest tho we cannot well explain ? those notiary. For ye understanding ye Athanasian creed this ?ylds is sufficient viz: Cot is affirm'd of ye divine nature as ?may be common to all 3 persons but wt is affirm'd of ye several such must be peculiar to yous. yt design of ye creed was to ? ?eral did not believe such a trinity as consisted of 3 persons unequal &dff'rent in nature substance & duration.
