30.  They have also dared to say that the Scripture, When all things shall be subjected unto Him, then shall the Son also Himself be subjected unto Him that subjected all things unto Him 1 Cor. xv. 28.  Theodoret Comment. in Epist. i. ad Cor. xv. 28:  “This passage the followers of Arius and Eunomius carry continually on their tongue, thinking in this way to disparage the dignity of the Only-begotten.”,—that this Scripture shews that the Son also shall be absorbed into the Father.  Shall ye then, O most impious of all men, ye the creatures of Christ, continue? and shall Christ perish, by whom both you and all things were made?  Such a word is blasphemous.  But further, how shall all things be made subject unto Him?  By perishing, or by abiding?  Shall then the other things, when subject to the Son abide, and shall the Son, when subject to the Father, not abide?  For He shall be subjected, not because He shall then begin to do the Father’s will (for from eternity He doth always those things that please Him John viii. 29.), but because, then as before, He obeys the Father, yielding, not a forced obedience, but a self-chosen accordance; for He is not a servant, that He should be subjected by force, but a Son, that He should comply of His free choice and natural love.
