Catechesis: The Person of Christ

We are not inventing anything new out of our ideas, but we are simply accepting and repeating the explanations that the ancient, orthodox church has given us on the basis of the sound foundation of the Holy Scripture, name, that such divine power, life, might, majesty, and glory have not been given to the assumed human nature in Christ in the same way in which the Father has eternally imparted his essence and all divine characteristic to the Son according to the divine nature, so that he is of one essence with the Father and is equal to God.—FC SD VIII:61
