IX. “And if any one, because the
Father is never admitted to be the Son and the Son is never admitted to
be the Father, when he says that the Son is other than the Father
(because the Father is one Person and the Son another, inasmuch as it
is said, There is another that beareth witness of Me, even the
father who sent Me John v. 32.), does in anxiety
for the distinct personal qualities of the Father and the Son which in
the Church must be piously understood to exist, fear that the Son and
the Father may sometimes be admitted to be the same Person, and
therefore denies that the Son is like in essence to the Father:
let him be anathema.”
