134. The Son received all things from the Father, for He Himself said: “All things have been delivered unto Me from My Father.” All that is the Father’s the Son also has, for He says again: “All things which the Father hath are Mine.” And those things which He Himself received by Unity of nature, the Spirit by the same Unity of nature received also from Him, as the Lord Jesus Himself declares, when speaking of His Spirit: “Therefore said I, He shall receive of Mine and shall declare it unto you.” Therefore what the Spirit says is the Son’s, what the Son hath given is the Father’s. So neither the Son nor the Spirit speaks anything of Himself. For the Trinity speaks nothing external to Itself.
