To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
*^ Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus, and finding certain disciples, he said unto them have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed ? and they said unto him we have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost ; and when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied." The spirit of God is that which constitutes the divine OBACLES OF BEASON. 109 essence^ and makes him to be what he is^ but that he... should be dictated^ or his spirit be commimicated by any acts or ceremonies of the apostles^ is by no means admis* sible ; for such exertions of the apostles^ so far as they may be supposed to communicate the holy spirit to their disciples^ would have made God passive in the premised act of the gifk of the spirit ; for it must have been either the immediate act of God or of the apostles^ and if it was the immediate act of the one^ it could not have been the immediate act of the other. To suppose that the act of the gift of the spirit was the mere act of Gt>d^ and at the same time the mere act of the apostles^ are propositions diametrically opposed to each other, and cannot both be true.
