13. 因這緣故,有人能大膽的說:“基督是受造之物”,因為明顯的,基督是被造的。22 14. 約翰福音第一章說:“道成了肉身”(The Word was made flesh)。按我們的觀念,更合適的說法,應該是“到肉身化了”(The Word was incarnated)或“道成了屬肉的”(The Word was made fleshly)。 15. 在這件事上,聖經的表達方式和正統教父的表達方式應做一切的準則。 29. 很顯然,士閔克非乃是向虛渺之黑暗(empty darkness)狂吠,反對他自己夢想中製造出來的“受造者基督”。32 30. 這些人士忘記了自己是誰,他們一面承認神成為肉身,一面又不敢反對肉身乃是受造的。 47. 這些名學家認為,基督的人性是由他的神性所支撐(sustained or supposited),或者說是被神聖的支撐着(divinely supposited)。 48. 這是可怕的說法,這樣說法差不多等於說神是背負着人性的。45 51. 假若有人認為“基督作為人乃是一受造物”,感到不自在或感到困惑,文法家可以安慰他。47 64。是不是異端的分別在此:異端者對聖經的認識,是不跟隨聖靈的指導的。

QUESTION 16 OF THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE APPLICABLE TO CHRIST IN HIS BEING AND BECOMING 問題之十六 關於基督之所是與所成的問題
(8) Whether this is true: "Christ is a creature"? 我們是否能說:”基督是一個受造之物”?
。。。。
P(3)-Q(16)-A(8)-O(2) ?Further, the properties of both natures may be predicated of the common hypostasis of both natures, no matter by what word they are signified, as stated above (A(5)). But it is the property of human nature to be created, as it is the property of the Divine Nature to be Creator. Hence both may be said of Christ, viz. that He is a creature and that he is uncreated and Creator. / 再者,如同前面(A(5))所說的,兩性的特質可由兩性共有的位格而預測,不論他們(說話的人)用的字的含義是什麼。但是,受造是人性的特質,如同神性的特質屬於造物主一樣。故此,我們同時可以說基督是個被造之物和他是非受造的造物主 。。。。。
P(3)-Q(16)-A(8)-RO(1) ?Sometimes, for the sake of brevity, the holy doctors use the word "creature" of Christ, without any qualifying term; we should however take as understood the qualification, "as man." /有時候,為了簡化,神聖的博士們(指教父們),在沒有附加任何解釋的情況下,將“被造物”用在基督身上;我們無論如何必須在理解上加上“如同人”作為解釋。

But those who say that there was a when, when He was not, and that He was made out of nothing (what did not exist), or who say that He is of another hypostasis or ousia, or that the Son of God is created or subject to change or alteration, the Catholic and Apostolic Church anathematize.” / 大公和使徒的教會咒詛那些教導曾有一時,他(指子)不存在,和他是由虛無(不存在)中被創造出來的,或教導他有不同的位格或本質,或神的兒子是被造的,或會改變的,或變更的人。
而亞他那修信經後的“咒詛文”為:
And those who say that there was a time when the Son was not, or when the Holy Ghost was not, or that either was made of that which previously had no being, or that he is of a different nature or substance, and affirm that the Son of God and the Holy Spirit are subject to change and mutation; all such the Catholic and Apostolic Church, the mother both of you and of us, anathematizes. And further we anathematize such as do not confess the resurrection of the dead, as well as all heresies which are not in accord with the true faith. / 大公和使徒的教會,你和我們的母親,咒詛那些教導,曾有一時神的兒子不存在,或曾有一時聖靈不存在,或他們是原來不存在而被造的,或他有不同的性質或本質,和認定神的兒子與聖靈是會改變的和會變異的人。除此之外,我們也咒詛不相信死人復活,和所有不根據真信仰的異端。
