Secondly. When we begin our prayers to God the
Father, and end them in the name of Jesus Christ, yet the Son is no less
invocated and worshipped in the beginning than the Father, though he be
peculiarly mentioned as mediator in the close, — not as Son to himself, but
as mediator to the whole Trinity, or God in Trinity. But in the
invocation of God the Father we invocate every person; because we invocate
the Father as God, every person being so.
