    But against this it is thus opposed: the Will of God is the Nature or the Essence of God, because for God the ""to be"" is not one thing, ""to will"" the other; and for that reason, just as there is one Essence of Three Persons, so also one Will. Therefore if God by nature is God, He is also by will God; and if the Word of God by nature is the Son of God, He is also by will the Son of God.

    He says from Him, as Augustine says in the book On the Trinity, on account of the Father; he says through Him on account of the Son; in Him on account of the Holy Spirit. But by this, that he does not say from Them, through Them and in Them, nor does he say to Them (be) the glory, but to Him, he hints, that this Trinity is the One Lord God.
