The heretical objection, that the Son cannot be equal
to the Father, because He cannot beget a Son, is turned
back upon the authors of it. From the case of human nature it is
shown that whether a person begets offspring or not, has nothing to do
with his power. Most of all must this be true since, otherwise,
the Father Himself would have to be pronounced wanting in power.
Whence it follows that we have no right to judge of divine things by
human, and must take our stand upon the authority of Holy Writ,
otherwise we must deny all power either to the Father or to the
Son.
