2. The Son of God, the second Person in the Trinity, being very and eternal God, of one Substance, and equal with the Father; did, when the fullness of time was come, take upon Him mans nature,a with all the Essential properties, and common infirmities thereof, yet, without sin:b being conceived by the Power of the Holy Ghost, in the womb of the Virgin Mary, of her substance.c So that, two whole, perfect, and distinct Natures, the Godhead and the Manhood, were inseparably joined together in one Person, without Conversion, Composition, or Confusion.d Which person, is very God, and very Man, yet one Christ, the only Mediator between God and Man.e
