What reading level is Gloria Patri Or Our Talks About the Trinity book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What, do you say that the Word was God, and yet finite ?
Finite only as to form ; infinite as to what the form suggests or expresses. How else could we think ? By " Word " some kind of form is meant, and any form must be finite. But the Word is the form taken by the Infinite Intelli- gence, which transcends all forms. And this, whether under a form or above it, is God. I think you must see that in the very nature of things the Infinite Deity cannot be apprehended by finite minds except under so...me finite form, or " Word ; " while that which we apprehend under such a form must be the Deity Himself.
But are you not departing here from the Atha- nasian orthodoxy ? You were saying in our previous conversation that the Arians held that Christ was of a created nature, and not eternal, while the Athanasians held the contrary. I agree with you that in the nature of things the Word, the " form of God " in which, according to Paul, Christ pre- existed, must be finite. I dp not so clearly see 74 THE WORD OR how this differs from the Arian idea of a nature that is created, not eternal.
