1. Of God as the
sole Principle we have said enough to you yesterday See Lecture VI. 1, and
5.: by “enough” I mean, not
what is worthy of the subject, (for to reach that is utterly impossible
to mortal nature), but as much as was granted to our infirmity. I
traversed also the bye-paths of the manifold error of the godless
heretics: but now let us shake off their foul and soul-poisoning
doctrine, and remembering what relates to them, not to our own hurt,
but to our greater detestation of them, let us come back to ourselves,
and receive the saving doctrines of the true Faith, connecting the
dignity of Fatherhood with that of the Unity, and believing
In One God the Father: for we must not
only believe in one God; but this also let us devoutly receive, that He
is the Father of the Only-begotten, our Lord Jesus Christ.
