For one who correctly understands the Son's incarnation believes that the Son assumed a human being into the unity of his person and not into the unity of his substance. And my adversary foolishly thinks that the Son assumed a human being into the unity of his substance rather than into the unity of his person (p. 249).The glorious doctrine of the person of Christ is worth celebrating with all the might: and so it also one of those doctrines worth fighting over when it is under attack.
Crumbs fallen from the table of the King—from his Word, his workmen, and his world.
