Because there is only one Person in Christ, and because that Person exists and acts in two natures, one human, one Divine, it follows that all the actions of both natures can be and must be attributed to the same one Person. It is the person, not the nature, which is the responsible agent. Hence, we can say of Christ that He created the world; that He performed miracles by His own power; that He is immortal and Eternal; and on the other hand, that He ate, drank, slept, suffered, died, rose again and ascended into Heaven.

Surely this is a profound mystery. We cannot hope to understand it until we see it clearly in the vision of God. We cannot positively understand how it is possible for God to assume to Himself a human nature. We even find difficulty in seeking to understand how the human nature of Christ can exist without a human personality. But this is a mystery revealed to us by God Himself. With the humility of faith, we submit our own minds to the infinite wisdom and truth of God. because God has revealed this sublime truth to us, we know that it is possible for the Son of God to assume to Himself a human nature without a human personality. because God has said so, we know that this staggering possibility is an actual fact, a consoling fact. For, if God has so loved men that he sent His only-begotten Son into the world as Man, then surely God's love can raise man up to the unfathomable happiness of the vision of God.
