30. Τινὲς τῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ Σαμοσατέως, διαιροῦντες τὸν Λόγον ἀπὸ τοῦ Υἱοῦ, φάσκουσι τὸν μὲν Υἱὸν εἶναι τὸν Χριστὸν, τὸν δὲ Λόγον ἄλλον εἶναι· καὶ τούτου πρόφασιν λαμβάνουσιν ἀπὸ τῶν Πράξεων, ὃ καλῶς μὲν ὁ Πέτρος εἶπεν, αὐτοὶ δὲ κακῶς ἐκδέχονται. Ἒστι δὲ τοῦτο· ‘τὸν Λόγον ἀπέστειλε τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ, εὐαγγελιζόμενος εἰρήνην διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ· οὗτός ἐστι πάντων Κύριος.’ Φασὶ γὰρ, ὡς τοῦ Λόγου διὰ Χριστοῦ λαλήσαντος, ὡς καὶ ἐπὶ τῶν προφητῶν, ‘τάδε λέγει Κύριος·ʼ ἄλλος μὲν ἦν ὁ προφήτης, ἄλλος δὲ ὁ Κύριος. Ἀλλὰ πρὸς τοῦτο ὅμοιόν ἐστιν ἀντιτιθέναι τὸ ἐν τῇ πρώτῃ πρὸς Κορινθίους, ‘ἀπεκδεχομένους τὴν ἀποκάλυψιν τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ὃς καὶ βεβαιώσει ὑμᾶς ἕως τέλους ἀνεγκλήτους ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.’ Ὡς γὰρ οὐκ ἄλλος Χριστὸς ἑτέρου Χριστοῦ τὴν ἡμέραν βεβαιοῖ, ἀλλʼ αὐτὸς ἐν τῇ ἑαυτοῦ ἡμέρᾳ βεβαιοῖ τοὺς ἀπεκδεχομένους, οὕτω τὸν Λόγον ἀπέστειλεν ὁ Πατὴρ σάρκα γενόμενον, ἵνα διʼ ἑαυτοῦ ἄνθρωπος γενόμενος κηρύξῃ. Εὐθέως γοῦν ἐπάγει, ‘οὖτός ἐστι πάντων Κύριος·’ Κύριος δὲ πάντων ὁ Λόγος ἐστί.
