Hear His words, The Father is greater than I St. John xiv. 28., and I and the Father are One Ib. x. 30., and He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father also Ib. xiv. 9., and The Father is in Me and I in the Father Ib. x. 38., and I went out from the Father Ib. xvi. 28., and Who is in the bosom of the Father Ib. i. 18., and Whatsoever the Father hath He hath delivered to the Son The citation which is interpolated in § 8, where see the note, and cf. St. Matt. xi. 25., and The Son hath life in Himself, even as the Father hath in Himself St. John v. 26.. Hear in these words the Son, the Image, the Wisdom, the Power, the Glory of God. Next mark the Holy Ghost proclaiming Who shall declare His generation Isai. liii. 8.? Note Reading observa. the Lord’s assurance, No one knoweth the Son save the Father, neither doth any know the Father save the Son and He to whom the Son willeth to reveal Him St. Matt. xi. 27.. Penetrate into the mystery, plunge into the darkness which shrouds that birth, where you will be alone with God the Unbegotten and God the Only-begotten. Make your start, continue, persevere.

Reason will fail for want of words, but when it comes to a stand it will be the better for the effort made.
