2. The Son of God, the second person in the Trinity, being very and eternal God, of one substance and equal with the Father, did, when the fulness of time was come, take upon Him man's nature, with all the essential properties and common infirmities thereof, yet without sin; being conceived by the power of the Holy Ghost, in the womb
of the virgin Mary, of her substance. So that two whole, perfect, and distinct natures, the Godhead and the manhood, were inseparably joined together in one person, without conversion, composition, or confusion. Which person is very God, and very man, yet one Christ, the only Mediator between God and man.
-Westminster Confession of Faith 8.2
3. We reject any teaching that denies or obscures the truth that Jesus is both God and man in two distinct natures and one person forever.
4. We reject any teaching that would place any mediator between Christ and man.
-Reformed Presbyterian Testimony 8.3, 4 |
