Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Divinity of Christ: One of a Series of Lectures on the Fundamentals of Faith, Delivered in the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Before the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences
The answer of the traditional school is this: What think ye of Christ? He is very God and very Man. This answer was first called forth by the infallible declaration of the Church in the Council of Nicaea, 325 of our era. Arius had set the heresy agog that there was in Christ a person whose nature was h'uman, - at any rate was not Divine, - was at most a halfway between the human and the Divine. This heresy was con demned by the 1nfallible declaration of the Church in the Council of Nicaea, which defined the Di vinity of the single person of Christ, and his twofold nature.
Later Nestorius started a new form of heresy. He taught that, m Jesus, there was the human person, and therefore a human nature; and also a Divine person with a Divme nature. This heresy was. Condemned by the infallible Church, which in the Council of Ephesus A. D. Defined the oneness and Divinity of the single person, Jesus the Christ; and the physical unity in this Divine Person, of the double nature, human and Divm-e, of the Word made Flesh.
