41. Therefore, in saying that the substance of the
Father and of the Son is diverse and their Godhead distinguishable,
they themselves assert there are two Gods.
But we, when we confess the Father and the Son,
in declaring them still to be of one Godhead, say that there are not
two Gods, but one God. And this we establish by the word of the
Lord. For where there are several, there is a difference either
of nature or of will and work. Lastly, that they may be refuted
on their own witness, two men are mentioned: But though they are
of one nature by right of birth, yet in time and thought and work and
place, they are apart; and so one man cannot be spoken of under the
signification and number of two; for there is no unity where there is
diversity. But God is said to be one, and the glory and
completeness of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit is thus
expressed.
