1. That God is of himselfe, that is, neither from another, nor of another, nor by another, nor for another;a But is a Spirit, who as his being is of himselfe, so he givesb being, moving, and preservation to all other things, being in himselfe eternall, most holy, every way infinite inc greatnesse, wisdome, power, justice, goodnesse, truth, &c. In this God-head, there is the Father, the Sonne, and the Spirit; being every one of them one and the same God; and therefore not divided, but distinguished one from another by their severall properties; thed Father being from himselfe, thee Sonne of the Father from everlasting, the holyf Spirit proceeding from the Father and the Sonne.g
