Brother Adam Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) "He fills his entire body with the life-giving energy of spirit. For henceforth he calls his flesh spirit, without denying that it is flesh... Since the flesh cannot give life of and by itself, what does it gain by being in the One who verily is god? it is then, Christ declares his flesh to be life-giving, he does not with this declare that it possesses the same life-giving power as he himself possesses, or the Holy Spirit. Through christ himself, therefore, is his body life-giving; for he has trnasposed it onto the level of his own power." - St. Cyril (quoted in Schonborn's "God's Human Face: The Christ Icon") Edited March 27, 2006 by Brother Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
