Pe. What meanest thou by that? Doest thou think that the same word of God was converted into flesh, in such sort that it was no more the eternal word of God, but flesh, and that the Son of God, which is that word of God, being God before that time, did so become man, that he is no more God, but man only?

Doest thou thinke that the same worde of God was conuerted into fleshe, in suche sorte that it was no more the eternall worde of God, but fleshe, and that the Sonne of God, which is that word of God, being God before that time, did so become man, that he is no more God, but man only?
M. Thou hast given me well to understand by that which thou hast even now said of the divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ, that we may not so think of him: but because Saint John maketh mention but of the flesh, when he saith,1 that that word became flesh, a man might think that he spake, but of the body and not at all of the soul, but that this word of God united with the body, was to it in stead of a soul.
M.
