Patristic Quote for the Day

Do not think that there is only deity or only humanity in Christ, but faithfully believe in both and humbly adore both, so that there is no division in the unity of the Logos with His flesh. But since the inviolable Logos is not separated from the suffering flesh, the deity must be understood to be a partaker with the flesh in all things and the flesh as a participant with the deity in all things. - St. Leo the Great, De Quadragesima Sermo 46 MPL 54, 293
