Now, if any one were to say that, through those who\r\nare partakers of the “Word” of God, or of His “Wisdom,”\r\nor His “Truth,” or His “Life,” the Word and Wisdom itself\r\nappeared to be contained in a place, we should have to say\r\nto him in answer, that there is no doubt that Christ, in respect\r\nof being the “Word” or “Wisdom,” or all other things, was\r\nin Paul, and that he therefore said, “Do you seek a proof\r\nof Christ speaking in me?”<a id=\"r1037\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f1037\"><sup>[1037]</sup></a> and again, “I live, yet not I,\r\nbut Christ liveth in me.”<a id=\"r1038\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f1038\"><sup>[1038]</sup></a> Seeing, then, He was in Paul,\r\nwho will doubt that He was in a similar manner in Peter\r\nand in John, and in each one of the saints; and not only in\r\nthose who are upon the earth, but in those also who are in\r\nheaven? For it is absurd to say that Christ was in Peter\r\nand in Paul, but not in Michael the archangel, nor in Gabriel.\r\nAnd from this it is distinctly shown that the divinity of the\r\nSon of God was not shut up in some place; otherwise it\r\nwould have been in it only, and not in another. But since,\r\nin conformity with the majesty of its incorporeal nature,\r\nit is confined to no place; so, again, it cannot be understood\r\nto be wanting in any. But this is understood to be the\r\nsole difference, that although He is in different individuals\r\nas we have said—as Peter, or Paul, or Michael, or Gabriel—He\r\nis not in a similar way in all beings whatever. For He\r\nis more fully and clearly, and, so to speak, more openly in\r\narchangels than in other holy men.<a id=\"r1039\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f1039\"><sup>[1039]</sup></a> And this is evident\r\nfrom the statement, that when all who are saints have arrived\r\nat the summit of perfection, they are said to be made like,\r\n<span class=\"pageno\" id=\"Page_345\">345</span>or equal to, the angels, agreeably to the declaration in the\r\nGospels.<a id=\"r1040\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f1040\"><sup>[1040]</sup></a> Whence it is clear that Christ is in each individual\r\nin as great a degree as the amount of his deserts allows.<a id=\"r1041\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f1041\"><sup>[1041]</sup></a></p>","headings":["The Writings of Origen, Vol. 1 of 2","ORIGEN DE PRINCIPIIS.","BOOK IV.","FROM THE LATIN."],"marker_anchor":null,"paragraph_id":"pg70561-paragraph-345"}],"canonical_references":[],"date_end":null,"date_start":null,"deduplication_fingerprint":"5e57708a226a1cd4d02a1bce7927b121b7103fa22a516e501a6e6df4f38564ad","edition_title":"The writings of Origen, Vol. 1 (of 2)","edition_translators":["Frederick Crombie"],"edition_year":1869,"explicit_reference_candidates":[],"headings":[],"id":"pg70561-f1041","license_url":"https://www.gutenberg.org/policy/license.html","public_import_allowed":false,"record_kind":"original-editor-translator-note","review_required":["work and recension attribution","original-work chronology","Bible reference numbering and citation kind","English edition rights and attribution"],"review_status":"needs_review","rights_evidence":"Project Gutenberg metadata: Public domain in the USA.
