QUER Y I.

Whether all other Beings, besides the one Supreme God, be

not excluded by the Texts of Isaiah (to which many

more might be added) and consequently, whether Christ

can be God at all, unlejs he be the same with the Su-

preme God? p. 2.

QUE RY II.

Whether the Texts of the New Testament (in the second

Column) do not foow that He (Chrift) is not excluded,

and therefore must be the same God? p. 6.

QUERY IU.

IVhether the Word (God) in Scripture, can reasonably be

suppos'd 10 carry an ambiguous meaning, or be us’d in

a different Sense, when applied to the Father and Son,

in the fame Scripture, and even in the same verse? (See

Joh. i. 1.) p. 47

QUERY IV.

Whether, supposing the Scripture-Notion of God to be no

more than that of the Author and Governor of the

Universe, or whatever it be, the admitting of Another

10 be Author and Governor of the Universe, be not

admitting another God; contrary to the Texts before

cited from Isaiah ; and also to Ila. 42. 8.--48. 11.

where he declares, He will not give his Glory to Ano-

ther ? p. 73•

QUERY V.

Whether Dr. Clarke's pretence, that the Authority of Fa-

ther and Son being One, tho they are two diftinét Beings,

makes them not to be two Gods. As a King upon the

Throne and his Son administring the Father's Go-

vernment, are not two Kings, be not trifling and

inconsistent? For, if the King's Son be not a King, be

cannot truly be called King; if he is, then there are

two Kings. So, if the Son be not God in the Scrip-

ture-Notion of God, he cannot truly be called God;

and then how is the Doctor consistent with Scripture, or

with Himself? But if the Son be truly God, there are

two Gods upon the Doctor's Hypothesis, as plainly as

that one and one are two: and so all the Texts of

Isaiah cited above, besides others, fi and full and clear

against the Doctor's Notion. P. 79.

equivocating Answer to the Objection, since the son may

be a necessary Emanation from the Father, by the

Will and Power of the Father, without any Conirudia

{tion? Will is one thing, and Arbitrary Will another.

p. 111.

QUE R Y IX.

Winether the divine Attributes, Omniscience, Ubiquity,

&c. those individual Attributes can be communicated

without the divine Essence, from which they are insepa,

rable? p. 164.

QUERY X.

Whether, if they (the Attributes belonging to the Son)

be not Individually the same, they can be any thing

more than faint Resemblances of them, differing from

them as Finite from Infinite; and then in what Sinje,

or with what Truth can the Doctor pretend that * a's

divine Powers, except absolute Supremacy and Irucs.

pendency, are communicated to the Son? And whether

every Being, besides the one Supreme Being, must not ne-

cessarily be a Creature and Finite; and whether all

divine Powers can be communicated to a Creature, Ing

finite Perfection to a Finite Being ? p. 174.

QUERY XI.

Whether if the Doctor means by divine Powers, Powers given

by God ( in the Same Senfé as Angelical Powers are die

vine Powers) only in a higher Degree than are given

to other Beings; it be not equivocating and Saying nothing :

Nothing that can come up 10 the Sense of those Texts beo

fore cited, t or to these following?? p.181..

Applied.

To the one God.

To God the Son.

QUERY XII.

Whether the Creator of all Things was not himself Uncreat-

ed; and therefore could not be es crx övran, made

out of nothing? p. 194.

QUER Y XIII.

Whether there can be any Middle between being made out

of nothing, and out of something ; that is, between being

out of nothing, and out of the Father's Substance; be-

tween being essentially God, and being a Creature?

Whether, consequently, the Son must not be either essen-

tially God, or else'a Creature? p. 202.

QUERY XIV.

U hether Dr. Clarke, who every where denies the Confub-

ftantiality of the Son as absurd and contradi&tory, does

not, of 'Consequence, affirm the Son to be a Creature,

: ©Twv, and to fall under his own censure, and

is Self-condemn'd? p. 212.

QUERY XV.

Whether he also must not, of Consequence, affirm of the

Son, that there was a time when he was not, fonce

God must exist before the Creature; and therefore is

gain Self-condemn'd (See prop. 16. Scrip. Do&tr.)
