Caput I: This Work is Written Against Those Who Sophistically Assail the Faith of the Trinity, Through Misuse of Reason. They Who Dispute Concerning God Err from a Threefold Cause.

Caput VII: In What Manner the Son is Less Than the Father, and Than Himself.
Caput VIII: The Texts of Scripture Explained Respecting the Subjection of the Son to the Father, Which Have Been Misunderstood.

The Holy Spirit is Sufficient to Our Blessedness Equally with the Father.

Caput XII: In What Manner the Son is Said Not to Know the Day and the Hour Which the Father Knows. Some Things Said of Christ According to the Form of God, Other Things According to the Form of a Servant. In What Way It is of Christ to Give the Kingdom, in What Not of Christ. Christ Will Both Judge and Not Judge.
Caput XIII: Diverse Things are Spoken Concerning the Same Christ, on Account of the Diverse Natures of the One Hypostasis [Theanthropic Person]. Why It is Said that the Father Will Not Judge, But Has Given Judgment to the Son.

Caput XIX: The Vision of Daniel.

Caput III: How We are Rendered Apt for the Perception of Truth Through the Incarnate Word.
Caput IV: The One Death and Resurrection of The Body of Christ Harmonizes with Our Double Death and Resurrection of Body and Soul, to the Effect of Salvation. In What Way the Single Death of Christ is Bestowed Upon Our Double Death.
Caput V: The Ratio of the Single to the Double Comes from the Perfection of the Senary Number. The Perfection of The Senary Number is Commended in the Scriptures. The Year Abounds in The Senary Number.

Caput VI: Reply is Made to the Cavils of the Heretics in Respect to the Same Words Begotten and Unbegotten.
Caput VII: The Addition of a Negative Does Not Change the Predicament.
Caput VIII: Whatever is Spoken of God According to Substance, is Spoken of Each Person Severally, and Together of the Trinity Itself. One Essence in God, and Three, in Greek, Hypostases, in Latin, Persons.

Caput II: What is Said of the Father and Son Together, and What Not.

Caput II: The Father and the Son are Together One Wisdom, as One Essence, Although Not Together One Word.
Caput III: Why the Son Chiefly is Intimated in the Scriptures by the Name of Wisdom, While Both the Father and the Holy Spirit are Wisdom. That the Holy Spirit, Together with the Father and the Son, is One Wisdom.

Caput III: The Image of the Trinity in the Mind of Man Who Knows Himself and Loves Himself. The Mind Knows Itself Through Itself.

Caput V: That These Three are Several in Themselves, and Mutually All in All.
Caput VI: There is One Knowledge of the Thing in the Thing Itself, and Another in Eternal Truth Itself. That Corporeal Things, Too, are to Be Judged the Rules of Eternal Truth.

Caput XI: That the Image or Begotten Word of the Mind that Knows Itself is Equal to the Mind Itself.
Caput XII: Why Love is Not the Offspring of the Mind, as Knowledge is So. The Solution of the Question. The Mind with the Knowledge of Itself and the Love of Itself is the Image of the Trinity.

Caput V: Why the Soul is Enjoined to Know Itself. Whence Come the Errors of the Mind Concerning Its Own Substance.
Caput VI: The Opinion Which the Mind Has of Itself is Deceitful.

Caput X: Every Mind Knows Certainly Three Things Concerning Itself—That It Understands, that It Is, and that It Lives.

Caput XI: Book 11
Caput I: A Trace of the Trinity Also In the Outer Man.
Caput II: A Certain Trinity in the Sight. That There are Three Things in Sight, Which Differ in Their Own Nature. In What Manner from a Visible Thing Vision is Produced, or the Image of that Thing Which is Seen. The Matter is Shown More Clearly by an Example. How These Three Combine in One.
Caput III: The Unity of the Three Takes Place in Thought, Viz. Of Memory, of Ternal Vision, and of Will Combining Both.
Caput IV: How This Unity Comes to Pass.
Caput V: The Trinity of the Outer Man, or of External Vision, is Not an Image of God. The Likeness of God is Desired Even in Sins. In External Vision the Form of the Corporeal Thing is as It Were the Parent, Vision the Offspring; But the Will that Unites These Suggests the Holy Spirit.

Caput IV: The Trinity and the Image of God is in that Part of the Mind Alone Which Belongs to the Contemplation of Eternal Things.
Caput V: The Opinion Which Devises an Image of the Trinity in the Marriage of Male and Female, and in Their Offspring.
Caput VI: Why This Opinion is to Be Rejected.
Caput VII: How Man is the Image of God. Whether the Woman is Not Also the Image of God. How the Saying of the Apostle, that the Man is the Image of God, But the Woman is the Glory of the Man, is to Be Understood Figuratively and Mystically.
Caput VIII: Turning Aside from the Image of God.
Caput IX: The Same Argument is Continued.

Caput XIII: Book 13
Caput I: The Attempt is Made to Distinguish Out of the Scriptures the Offices of Wisdom and of Knowledge. That in the Beginning of John Some Things that are Said Belong to Wisdom, Some to Knowledge. Some Things There are Only Known by the Help of Faith. How We See the Faith that is in Us. In the Same Narrative of John, Some Things are Known by the Sense of the Body, Others Only by the Reason of the Mind.

Caput III: Some Desires Being the Same in All, are Known to Each. The Poet Ennius.
Caput IV: The Will to Possess Blessedness is One in All, But the Variety of Wills is Very Great Concerning that Blessedness Itself.

Caput VI: Why, When All Will to Be Blessed, that is Rather Chosen by Which One Withdraws from Being So.
Caput VII: Faith is Necessary, that Man May at Some Time Be Blessed, Which He Will Only Attain in the Future Life. The Blessedness of Proud Philosophers Ridiculous and Pitiable.
Caput VIII: Blessedness Cannot Exist Without Immortality.
Caput IX: We Say that Future Blessedness is Truly Eternal, Not Through Human Reasonings, But by the Help of Faith. The Immortality of Blessedness Becomes Credible from the Incarnation of the Son of God.
Caput X: There Was No Other More Suitable Way of Freeing Man from the Misery of Mortality Than The Incarnation of the Word. The Merits Which are Called Ours are the Gifts of God.
Caput XI: A Difficulty, How We are Justified in the Blood of the Son of God.
Caput XII: All, on Account of the Sin of Adam, Were Delivered into the Power of the Devil.

Caput XIII: How Any One Can Forget and Remember God.
Caput XIV: The Mind Loves God in Rightly Loving Itself; And If It Love Not God, It Must Be Said to Hate Itself. Even a Weak and Erring Mind is Always Strong in Remembering, Understanding, and Loving Itself. Let It Be Turned to God, that It May Be Blessed by Remembering, Understanding, and Loving Him.
Caput XV: Although the Soul Hopes for Blessedness, Yet It Does Not Remember Lost Blessedness, But Remembers God and the Rules of Righteousness. The Unchangeable Rules of Right Living are Known Even to the Ungodly.

Caput XVII: How the Image of God in the Mind is Renewed Until the Likeness of God is Perfected in It in Blessedness.
Caput XVIII: Whether the Sentence of John is to Be Understood of Our Future Likeness with the Son of God in the Immortality Itself Also of the Body.

Caput XV: Book 15

Caput IV: What Universal Nature Teaches Us Concerning God.
Caput V: How Difficult It is to Demonstrate the Trinity by Natural Reason.

Caput XXV: The Question Why the Holy Spirit is Not Begotten, and How He Proceeds from the Father and the Son, Will Only Be Understood When We are in Bliss.
Caput XXVI: The Holy Spirit Twice Given by Christ. The Procession of the Holy Spirit from the Father and from the Son is Apart from Time, Nor Can He Be Called the Son of Both.
Caput XXVII: What It is that Suffices Here to Solve the Question Why the Spirit is Not Said to Be Begotten, and Why the Father Alone is Unbegotten. What They Ought to Do Who Do Not Understand These Things.
