Fragment VI. Among Christians it is settled as the doctrine of piety, that, according to nature itself, and to the activity and to whatever else pertains thereunto, God is equal and the same with Himself, 1758 having nothing that is His unequal to Himself at all and heterogeneous. 1759 If, then, according to Beron, the flesh that He assumed to Himself became possessed of the like natural energy with them, it is evident that it also became possessed of the like nature with Him in all wherein that nature consists,—to wit, non-origination, non-generation, infinitude, eternity, incomprehensibility, and whatever else in the way of the transcendent the theological mind discerns in deity; and thus they both underwent conversion, neither the one nor the other preserving any more the substantial relation of its own proper nature. 1760 For he who recognises an identical operation 1761 in things of unlike nature, introduces at the same time a fusion of natures and a separation of persons, 1762 their natural existence 1763 being made entirely undistinguishable by the transference of properties. 1764 1758     ἵσον ἑαυτῷ καὶ ταυτόν . 1759     ἀκατάλληλον . 1760     τῆς ἰδίας φύσεως οὐσιώδη λόγον . 1761     ταυτουργίαν . 1762     διαίρεσιν προσωπικήν . 1763     ὑπάρξεως . 1764     ἱδιωμάτων .
