Palladius said; ‘When I call Him very Son, what more is wanted?’ Ambrose, Bishop, said; ‘I do not ask only that you should call Him very Son, but that you should call the Son of God very Lord.’ 19. EUSEBIUS, Bishop, said; ‘Is Christ very God, according to the faith of all and to the Catholic profession?’ Palladius said; ‘He is the very Son of God.’ Eusebius, Bishop, said; ‘We also are by adoption sons; He is Son according to the property of His Divine Generation.’ And he added; ‘Do you confess that the very Son of God is very Lord by His Birth and essentially?’ Palladius said; ‘I call Him the very Son of God, only-begotten.’ Eusebius, Bishop, said; ‘Do you then think it is against the Scriptures, for Christ to be called very God?’ 20. PALLADIUS being silent, Ambrose, Bishop, said; ‘He who says only that He is the very Son of God, and will not say that He is very Lord, appears to deny it. Let Palladius then, if he does confess it, confess it in this order, and let him say whether he calls the Son of God very Lord.’ Sidenote: S. John xvii. 3. Palladius said; ‘When the Son says, _That they might know Thee the only true God and Jesus Christ Whom Thou hast sent_, is it by way of feeling only, or in truth?’ Sidenote: 1 S. John v. 20. Ambrose, Bishop, said; ‘John said in his epistle; _This is the true God_. Deny this.’ Palladius said; ‘When I tell you that He is true Son, I acknowledge also a true Godhead.’ Ambrose, Bishop, said; ‘In this also there is evasion; for you art wont to speak of one only and true Godhead in such manner as to say that it is the divinity of the Father only, and not that of the Son also, which is one only and true. If then you wish to speak plainly, as you refer me to the Scriptures, say what the Evangelist John said; _This is the true God_, or deny that he hath said it.’ Palladius said; ‘Besides the Son there is none other that is begotten.’ 21. EUSEBIUS, Bishop, said; ‘Is Christ very God, according to the faith of all and to the Catholic profession, or in your opinion is He not very God?’ Palladius said; ‘He is the Power of our God.’ Ambrose, Bishop said; ‘You do not speak frankly; and so anathema to him who does not confess that the Son of God is very Lord.’ All the Bishops said; ‘Let him be accounted anathema, who will not call Christ, the Son of God, very Lord.’ 22. The reader continued; “Alone true, Who alone hath immortality.” Ambrose, Bishop, said; ‘Has the Son of God immortality, or has He it not, in respect of His Godhead?’ Sidenote: 1 Tim. vi. 16. Palladius said; ‘Do you accept or no the words of the Apostle, _The King of kings Who alone hath immortality_?’ Ambrose, Bishop, said; ‘What say you of Christ the Son of God?’ Palladius said; ‘Is Christ a divine Name or a human?’ 23. EUSEBIUS, Bishop, said; ‘He is called Christ indeed according to the mystery of His Incarnation, but He is both God and Man.’
