94. How then, let them tell us, would they have
these things to be?—a true generation, the true Son begotten of
God the Father, that is, of the Substance of the Father, or of another
substance? If they say “begotten of the Father, that is, of
the Substance of God,” well and good, for then they acknowledge
the Son as begotten of the Substance of the Father. If, then,
they are of one Substance, surely they are also of one sovereign
Power. Whereas, if the Son is begotten of another substance, how
can the Father be Almighty, and the Son not Almighty? For what
advantage hath God, if He have made His Son of another substance, when
confessedly the Son, on His part, hath of another substance made us
sons of God? The Son, therefore, is either of one Substance with
the Father, or of one sovereign Power.
