12 That they are therefore one God, or that they are united in this Divine nature.

In what respect are they one?

They are "of one substance, power, and eternity."

Mention some passages of Scripture in which the Holy Trinity is spoken of.

Isa. vi. 3; St. Matt, xxviii. 19; 2 Cor. xiii. 14.

Show that the Persons of the Holy Trinity are of one substance.

In the Institution of Holy Baptism divine honour is equally paid to all; and St. Paul (2 Cor. xiii.) prays for divine blessings equally from all: and if they are thus equal in honour, they must be equal in substance or essential nature.

Show that they are of one power and eternity.

St. Paul prays for divine blessings from all equally, and that "for evermore:" now if they can equally impart spiritual blessings, and that for evermore, they must be of one power and eternity.

What is the subject of the second Article?

"The Word or Son of God, which was made very man."

What is the meaning of "very man?"

Real man.

Prove that the Son of God and the Word of God are the same.
