“We must maintain that the consciousness of eternal relation as Son to the Father, as Word to the world, emerged in the consciousness of Jesus in the course of His history, and in His temporal condition its eternal presented itself as a pre-temporal form.” (Page 446)

“But to speak of Godhead as patient of change is self-contradictory. Deity is insusceptible of growth or diminution.” (Page 491)
