[Translated by P.E. Pusey]

CHAPTERS IN BOOK V.

1. That human affairs are not, according to the unlearned surmises of the Greeks, subject as of necessity to the Hours, but that of our own choice we advance both to good and to the contrary, and that we are directed by the will of God; on the words, They were seeking to take Him but no man laid hands on Him because His Hour was not yet come.

1. That after the Saviour's Cross at His rising again from the dead the Holy Ghost took up His Abode in us permanently; on the words, For the Holy Ghost was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

1. That no work of Jewish might was the Suffering on the Cross, nor did Christ die from the tyranny of any one, but Himself of His Own Will suffered this for us, that He might save all; on the words, These words spake Jesus in the treasury as He taught in the Temple, and no man laid hands on Him, for His Hour was not yet come.

1. That the Son is by Nature GOD, wholly remote from likeness to the creature, as regards essence; on the words, YE are of this world,I am not of this world.

5.That not inferior in might and wisdom to God the Father is the Son, yea rather His Very Wisdom and Might; on the words, Of Myself I do nothing, but as the Father taught Me, I speak these things.

OUR FATHER AMONG THE SAINTS
