185. According to the common idea, the Divine is distinguished into three Persons; but according to the idea drawn from the Creed of Athanasius, the second Person is not only Divine, but is Human also; so that in the second Person there is more than there is in the first or the third, namely, the Human; and this can in no wise be saved unless there be a Trine in the Lord, and unless His Human be Divine.
