124 IV, 29| UNION OF JESUS WITH THE FATHER.~Some one may perhaps ask
125 IV, 29| that there are two, God the Father and God the Son: which assertion
126 IV, 29| When we speak of God the Father and God the Son, we do not
127 IV, 29| separate each: because the Father cannot exist without the
128 IV, 29| Son be separated from the Father, since the name of Father
129 IV, 29| Father, since the name of Father cannot be given without
130 IV, 29| be begotten without the Father. Since, therefore, the Father
131 IV, 29| Father. Since, therefore, the Father makes the Son, and the Son

143 IV, 29| for whatever is in the Father flows on to the Son, and
144 IV, 29| the Son descends from the Father. Therefore that highest
145 IV, 29| thinks that he worships the Father only, as he does not worship
146 IV, 29| does not worship even the Father. But he who receives the
147 IV, 29| with the Son worships the Father also, since the Son is the
148 IV, 29| priest of the Most High Father. He is the door of the greatest
