In the sequel of this last passage Cyril proceeds
to argue that this unity of the Father and the Son lies in their
Nature, “since God begat God,” in their Kingdom Cat. xv. § 27, note
3., in their Will Athan. Contra
Arian, Or. ii. § 31, 1: “For the Word of God is
Framer and Maker, and He is the Father’s Will. Cf. Or. iii.
§ 63 fin., and
in their joint Creation Ib. Or. iii. § 11,
3: “Such then being the Son, therefore when the Son works,
the Father is the Worker.”, thus at each step
rejecting some prominent heretical tenet.
