Fifthly; Nor yet is it merely an Union of consent; The Believer is not one with Christ, only by consent of wills. The Arians whilst they blasphemously deny the Deity of the Son, betray a double ignorance (and if but ignorance, there sin is the less) the one in the doctrine, or assertion it self; the other in the ground, which they allege for it, which is Christs own words, praying to his Father for Believers, John 17.22. ⟨p. 26⟩that they may be one, even as we are one; whence they (supposing Believers to be one with the Father and the Son, only by consent of wills) do infer, neither are the Father and the Son one in any other sense. But say we, they err in the very foundation: we acknowledge indeed Believers to be so far one with Christ, 1and that is a very sweet and precious union: to will and nill the same things, is an high degree of love and oneness; but to say no more of the Union betwixt Christ and his Saints, is to say too little.
