Proofs 1-5 that God has intellect
That this truly belongs to God we prove in this way. FIRST, from the clear testimonies of sacred Scripture: Genesis 6:5; Job 28:23; Psalm 94; Acts 1:24; 15:8, 18; 1 John 3:20; 1 Samuel 2:3 — Jehovah is the strong God endowed with all knowledge. SECOND, from the infinity of the divine nature. To whose essence is infinitely perfect, intellect belongs, and indeed infinite intellect.
THIRD, from spiritual life. Whoever lives spiritually also has intellect. But God lives spiritually — demonstrated in chapter XIV. FOURTH, from God's outward operations: whoever by the Word produces, preserves, bears, governs, and orders all things has intellect; and whoever grants intellect to others and illuminates it has intellect — Exodus 36; Psalm 16:7; 32:8; 119. FIFTH, from the consent of Gentile philosophers — Hermes Trismegistus, Iamblichus, Porphyry, Proclus, Anaxagoras, Aristotle, Zeno.
Latin
Hoc autem in Deum revera competere hunc in modum probamus. PRIMO, a claris sacrae Scripturae testimoniis, Gen. VI.5; Job XXVIII.23; Psal. XCIV; Act. I.24; XV.8,18; I Joh. III.20; I Sam. II.3 — Deus fortis omni notitia praeditus est Jehovah. SECUNDO, a naturae divinae infinitate. Cujus essentia est infinite perfecta, ei competit intellectus et quidem infinitus. TERTIO, a spirituali vita. Qui spiritualiter vivit, is etiam intellectu valet. Atqui Deus spiritualiter vivit — demonstratum cap. XIV. QUARTO, ab operationibus Dei externis: qui verbo omnia producit, conservat, fert, gubernat et ordinat, is intellectu valet; et qui intellectum aliis largitur eumque illuminat, is intellectum habet — Exod. XXXVI; Psal. XVI.7; XXXII.8; CXIX. QUINTO, a consensu gentilium philosophorum — Mercurius Trismegistus, Jamblichus, Porphyrius, Proclus, Anaxagoras, Aristoteles, Zeno.
