Testimonia

For which\r\nreason, in addition to others, we say that He was also a great\r\nwrestler;<a id=\"r1250\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f1250\"><sup>[1250]</sup></a> having, on account of His human body, been\r\ntempted in all respects like other men, but no longer as men,\r\nwith sin as a consequence, but being altogether without sin.\r\nFor it is distinctly clear to us that “He did no sin, neither\r\nwas guile found in His mouth; and as one who knew no sin,”\r\nGod delivered Him up as pure for all who had sinned. Then\r\nCelsus says: “The body of God would not have been so\r\ngenerated as you, O Jesus, were.” He saw, besides, that if,\r\nas it is written, it had been born, His body somehow might\r\nbe even more divine than that of the multitude, and in a\r\ncertain sense a body of God. But he disbelieves the accounts\r\nof His conception by the Holy Ghost, and believes that He\r\nwas begotten by one Panthera, who corrupted the Virgin,\r\n<span class=\"pageno\" id=\"Page_477\">477</span>“because a God’s body would not have been so generated as\r\nyou were.” But we have spoken of these matters at greater\r\nlength in the preceding pages.</p>","headings":["The Writings of Origen, Vol. 1 of 2","ORIGEN CONTRA CELSUM.","ORIGEN AGAINST CELSUS.
