54. That in Christ Man is God:
From three places in the Formula Concordia?;
From Paul (Rom. xiv 11 and Coloss. ii 9);
From John (first Epistle v 20, 21);
and from the words of the Lord:
1. That God was the Word, and the Word became flesh;
2. That all things of the Father are His;
3. That all who are of the Father come to Him;
4. That as the Father bath life in Himself, so has the Son ("Life in Himself" is God);
5. That the Father and He are one;
6. That He is in the Father, and the Father in Him;
7. That he who seeth Him, seeth the Father;
8. That He is God of heaven and earth;
9. That He governs the universe (from the Creed);
10. That He is called "Jehovah, the Redeemer";
11. That He is called "Jehovah, our Righteousness";
12. That it is said that Jehovah would come into the world;
13. In the Apocalypse (chap. i) it is said, that He is "the First and the Last";
14. In a word, that He is God the Father who is invisible, in a Human which is visible before minds. Inasmuch as there is thus one God in the Church, the Church is the Church; etc., etc. From the Athanasian Creed: that God and Man in Christ is one Person, like soul and body. Also that the Human Nature was taken up into God.
