Topic VIII. If any one affirms that Christ is perfect man and also God the Word in the way of separation, 409 and refuses to acknowledge the one Lord Jesus Christ, even as it is written, let him be anathema. Explication. How could one say that Christ is perfect man and also God the Word in the way of separation, when the Lord Himself says, “Why seek ye to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God?” 410 For God the Word did not give a man for us, but He gave Himself for us, having been made man for our sake. Wherefore He says: “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. But He spake of the temple of His body.” 411 409     διαιρετῶς . 410     John viii. 40 . 411     Or, and incorruptible.
