§. 142. Of Objections against the Lords immutability answered.
Obj. CHrist was made man in the fulnesse of time, and died, Gal. 4. 4. 1 Cor. 15. 3.* 1.1 Yea, being in the form of God he made himself of no reputation, Phil. 2. 6, 7. or he brought himself to nothing. From hence it is inferred, that he who was chan∣ged in his very essence.
Answ. Immutability attributed to Christ is properly meant of his divine nature, which was no way altered by assuming his humane nature; For he became man not by conversion of the God-head into flesh; but by taking of the manhood into God,* 1.2 so as he remained in his divine nature, when he was incarnate, the very same that he was before, without any addition, diminution, or alteration.
Of other Objections answered, See Chap. 6. v. 17. §. 136.
