EP. SERAP.(致撒拉蓬的信)1.25

If by participation in the Spirit, we become 'partaker of divine nature' (2 Pet 1:4); it would be insane to say that the Spirit belongs to created nature and not to God. For that is why those in whom he comes to dwell are those who are deified. And if he deifies there is no doubt that his nature is of God.

如果借由有份于灵，我们成为‘神性的分享者’（彼后1：14）；若说圣灵属于非神、被造的性质又是何等的荒谬。这就是为什么那些在他里面，有他内住的人能够被神化。并且，如果他能够神化，无疑他的性质就是神。
