This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1852 edition. Excerpt: ... II. OF THE UNITY OF THE DIVINE ESSENCE, AND THE TRINITY OF PERSONS'. I BELIEVE IN ONE GOD. The Bishops of Nicsea confess that they believe in One God, yet they make mention of three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Substantia est id quod nullo alio indiget, cui inhsereat ad existendum. Triplici autem sensu accipitur; 1, pro essentia; 2, pro eo quod acoidentibus subest; 3, pro re per se existente, qua. postrema significatione tarn de Deo quam de creaturis enunciari potest.
