98. Fear not that the Son’s act displeased
the Father, seeing that the Son Himself
saith: “Whatsoever things are
His good pleasure, I do always,” and “The works that I do,
He Himself doeth.” S. John viii. 29; xiv. 12. How, then,
could the Father be displeased with that which He Himself did through
the Son? For it is One God, Who, as it is written, “hath
justified circumcision in consequence of faith, and uncircumcision
through faith.” Rom. iii. 30.
