But in all these enunciations, the speech is ever of the same person, namely the son of God incarnate. Therefore the person of Christ which is in these propositions the subject, or that whereof another thing is spoken, is used to be signified by 3. kinds of names: namely, by those which betoken the divine nature only, and that sometime in respect of the essence, sometime in respect of the hypostasie or persons: as, The lord of glory, the only begotten son of God: or which betoken in like sort the human nature only, as, Man, the son of Mary: or which betoken both natures together, as, Christ, Immanuel, god incarnate.
