6. The Catholick Church. On the contrary He had a body like ours.
7. The Docetae. No! That was only in appearance. You must leave out all about His Baptism, Circumcision, and Crucifixion. They were only pretence.
8. The Catholick Church. Not pretence at all, but real. He derived Very Manhood from the Blessed Virgin Mary, as truly as He derived Very Godhead from God the Father.
{122}
9. The Arians. Perhaps He took a human body, but not a human soul. "The Divine Word was in the place of the soul."
10. Nestorius. Perhaps if these things be so—since He derived the Person of God from God, and the Person of man from Mary—then we must not say that He was one Person, but two.
11. The Catholick Church. These ideas are contrary to the Truth: for (Council of Ephesus 431) Christ was but one Person, in whom two natures are intimately united, but not confounded.
12. The Eutychians. Granting there were not two Persons, we suppose that there were not two Natures. We hold that there was but one Nature mono physite (mono physis)—originally two distinct natures, but, after union, only one: the human nature being transubstantiated into the divine.
13. The Catholick Church. This also is faulty. For (Council of Chalcedon 451) in Christ, two distinct natures are united in one person without any change, mixture, or confusion.
14. Honorius Bishop of Rome and the Monothelites. Then perhaps the human will of Christ was subservient to the Divine Will, so as always to move in unison with it.
