93. There was therefore a pouring out upon us of
the Spirit, but upon the Lord Jesus, when He was in the form of man,
the
Spirit abode, as it is
written: “Upon Whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending
from heaven, and abiding upon Him, He it is Who baptizeth in the Holy
Spirit.” S. John i. 33. Around us is
the liberality of the Giver in abundant provision, in Him abides for
ever the fulness of the Spirit. He shed forth then what He deemed
to be sufficient for us, and what was shed forth is not separated nor
divided; but He has a unity of fulness wherewith He may enlighten the
sight of our hearts according to what our strength is capable of.
Lastly, we receive so much as the advancing of our mind acquires, for
the fulness of the grace of the Spirit is indivisible, but is shared in
by us according to the capacity of our own nature.
