‘The thistle withers and the grass dries up, but the word of God…’

[فَصْلٌ: رَدُّ دَعْوَاهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ سَمَّى نَفْسَهُ أَبًا وَابْنًا وَرُوحَ قُدُسٍ] قَالُوا: وَهَذِهِ الْأَسْمَاءُ لَمْ نُسَمِّهِ نَحْنُ مَعْشَرَ النَّصَارَى بِهَا مِنْ ذَاتِ أَنْفُسِنَا، بَلِ اللَّهُ سَمَّى لَاهُوتَهُ بِهَا، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ عَلَى لِسَانِ مُوسَى النَّبِيِّ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ مُخَاطِبًا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: أَلَيْسَ هَذَا الْأَبُ الَّذِي صَنَعَكَ وَبَرَاكَ وَاقْتَنَاكَ؟ وَعَلَى لِسَانِهِ أَيْضًا قَائِلًا: وَكَانَ رُوحُ اللَّهِ تَرِفُّ عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَقَوْلُهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ دَاوُدَ النَّبِيِّ: رُوحُكَ الْقُدُسُ لَا تُنْزَعُ مِنِّي، وَأَيْضًا عَلَى لِسَانِهِ بِكَلِمَةِ اللَّهِ تَشَدَّدَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالْأَرْضُ وَبِرُوحِ فَاهٍ جَمِيعُ قُوَّاتِهِنَّ. وَقَوْلُهُ: عَلَى لِسَانِ أَشْعِيَا: (يَيْبَسُ الْقَتَادُ وَيَجِفُّ الْعُشْبُ، وَكَلِمَةُ اللَّهِ
