33. But, they say, the cross was a dishonour to Him; yet it is because of the cross that we can now see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of power, that He Who was born man of the womb of the Virgin has returned in His Majesty with the clouds of heaven. Your irreverence blinds you to the natural relations of cause and event: not only does the spirit of godlessness and error, with which you are filled, hide from your understanding the mystery of faith, but the obtuseness of heresy drags you below the level of ordinary human intelligence. For it stands to reason that whatever we fear, we avoid: that a weak nature is a prey to terror by its very feebleness: that whatever feels pain possesses a nature always liable to pain: that whatever dishonours is always a degradation. On what reasonable principle, then, do you hold that our Lord Jesus Christ feared that towards which He pressed: or awed the brave, yet trembled Himself with weakness: or stopped the pain of wounds, yet felt the pain of His own: or was dishonoured by the degradation of the cross, yet through the cross sat down by God on high, and returned to His Kingdom?
33. An crux ei contumeliosa.---Sed contumeliosa ei esse crux dicitur. Atquin per hanc hominis filius sedere 0369C a dextris virtutis videndus est, et ex partu virginis homo natus in majestate sua cum coeli est nubibus reversus. Non tenes irreligiose rerum naturalium causas: et dum impietatis atque erroris spiritu plenus sacramentum fidei non intelligis, ex ipso saeculi sensu hebetudine haeretica disproficis. Omne enim, quod timetur, vitari necesse est dum timetur; 0370A et quod infirmum est, sumit ex imbecillitate terrorem; et quidquid dolet, dolendi in se habet indemutabilem naturam; et quidquid contumeliosum est, semper inhonorum est: tu vero quo sensu rationis intelligis, Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum ad quod festinat, timere; et consternantem fortes, infirmitate trepidare; et vulnera non permittentem dolori , vulneratum dolere; et contumelia crucis dehonestari, cui crux consessus ad Deum est, et reditus ad regnum?
