Thus we see how the son was made flesh: the use follows. Hence we learn to use all means, that we may become new creatures, and be borne of God. God becomes man, that we §35men might be partakers of the divine nature. Christ is made bone of our bone, and flesh of our flesh, by his incarnation, that we might be made bone of his bone, and flesh of his flesh by regeneration. The son of God was made the son of man, that we which are the sons of men might be made the sons ⟨p. 285⟩of God.
