He, not shunning everything existing, deigned to go into the most pure womb of the Ever-Virgin, to be born, to be nourished with milk, to grow and become a man, likewise to thirst, to hunger, to be weighed down by labors, to pour out sweat; then to be subjected to the envy of the Jews for the miracles which He performed in showing His Divinity, to be hung upon the Cross as if He were an evil-doer, together with thieves, to die a shameful death by His own will, to be buried, to rise again, and to ascend into Heaven so as to send down upon unbelievers the Holy Spirit Who proceeds from the Father, Whom indeed He sent.
“For it was the aim and end of the entire Dispensation of Christ’s Incarnation that the Holy Spirit might be received in the souls of those who believe in Christ as God and man, a single Christ in two natures, Divine and human, indivisible and unconfused, so that this Holy Spirit might be, as it were, the soul of the soul of believers, and that they for this reason might be called Christians, and so that (by the activity of this Holy Spirit), they, to some extent, might be recast, recreated, renewed and sanctified, in mind, conscience, and in all their senses. So that after this they should no longer have in themselves any kind of corrupt life which could raise in their souls an inclination and desire for fleshly enjoyments and worldly lusts.
