Question 31 — Unity and Plurality in God

We now consider what belongs to the unity or plurality in God; which gives rise to four points of inquiry:

(1) Concerning the word ‘Trinity.’

• (2) Whether we can say that the Son is other than the Father?
• (3) Whether an exclusive term, which seems to exclude otherness, can be joined to an essential name in God?
• (4) Whether it can be joined to a personal term?
