As to your letter, for wᶜʰ I thanke you, I willingly acknowledge yᵉ Trinity in Unity, and Xᵗ to be not meer man but true God, in yᵉ Scripture sense, therefore I am a Christian.[…]For yᵉ present I must denie yᵗ major, viz. He that denieth yᵗ in Xᵗ wᶜʰ is most essential in him, denieth Xᵗ, for admit your minor was true, yet Jesus was called Xᵗ, in respect of his unction[…]Maldonati in Evang. thinkes yᵗ yᵉ disciples did not know yᵉ eternal generation, till after yᵉ resurrection, and yet they knew yᵗ Jesus was yᵉ Xᵗ, yᵉ Sonne of yᵉ living God, wᶜʰ seem to be used as words of the same importance, Matth. xvi. 16, John vi. 69, and Mark and Luke say only—Thou art yᵉ Xᵗ, and for this confession were declared blessed. Justin Martyr sayeth yᵗ many orthodox Xᵗⁱᵃⁿˢ placed yᵉ divinity of Xᵗ in his unction, as I noted before.[…]To confesse Jesus to be yᵉ Xᵗ is next to nothing since the grand apostacy, but in yᵉ primitive church an exalted Saviour was in better request,[…]He yᵗ beleiveth yᵗ Jesus Xᵗ was conceived by yᵉ Holy Spirit,[…]One said to me yᵉ Pope is exactly orthodox in yᵉ Trinitie, ergo, he is not Anti-Xᵗ. I answered, Hee is Anti-Xᵗ, therefore search him well upon yᵉ hue and cry for that.
