15. When, therefore, you read the Name “God,” separate neither Father nor Son, for the Godhead of the Father and the Son is one and the same, and therefore separate them not, when you read the words “blessed and only Potentate,” 1 Tim. vi. 15. for the words are spoken of God, even as you may read: “I charge thee before God, Who quickeneth all things.” 1 Tim. vi. 13. Christ also indeed doth quicken, and therefore the Name of God is meetly given both to the Father and to the Son, inasmuch as the effect of their activity is in agreement. Let us go on to the words following: “I charge thee,” he says, “before God, Who quickeneth all things, and Jesus Christ.” That is to say, God and Christ Jesus are united in the work of quickening.
