86. Yea, even now, when Christ is invoked, the devils tremble,258 S. James ii. 19. and not even by our ill-doing has the power of this Name been extinguished, while we are not ashamed to insult a cause and name so venerable; shouting it, and having it shouted in return, almost in public, and every day; for My Name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.259 Isai. lii. 5; Rom. ii. 24.
Π#2ʹ. Καὶ οἱ μὲν δαίμονες φρίττουσιν εἰς ἔτι καὶ νῦν Χριστοῦ καλουμένου, καὶ οὐδὲ ὑπὸ τῆς κακίας ἡμῶν ἐξίτηλος γέγονεν ἡ τοῦ ὀνόματος τούτου δύναμις: ἡμεῖς δὲ οὐκ αἰσχυνόμεθα τὸ σεμνὸν οὕτω καὶ πρᾶγμα καὶ ὄνομα καθυβρίζοντες: καὶ μονονοὺ φανερῶς αὐτοῦ βοῶντος ἀκούοντες καὶ καθ' ἑκάστην ἡμέραν: Τὸ γὰρ ὄνομά μου βλασφημεῖται δι' ὑμᾶς ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι.
