when they read that the Father is the only true God, I suppose that
when they read of the Incarnation of the Son: “This is the
stone which was set at naught of you builders, which is become the head
of the corner;” and further: “There is none other
name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be
saved;” Acts iv. 11, 12. then they
imagine the Father is to be cut off from the benefit of imparting
salvation to us. But there is neither salvation without the
Father, nor eternal life without the Son.
