Κυρίκκου. Οὐκοῦν εἴπερ εἶναι φασὶν κτιστὸν τὲ καὶ ποιητὸν τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ Ἅγιον, ἀνάγκη συνομολογεῖν ὑποτετάχθαι καὶ αὐτὸ τῇ ματαιότητι· καὶ συστενάζειν μὲν καὶ συνωδίνειν· εἶναι τὲ νῦν ὥσπερ ἐν δουλείᾳ· ἐλευθερωθήσεσθαι o δὲ μόλις εἰς τὴν ἀπολύτρωσιν τῆς δόξης τῶν τέκνων τοῦ Θεοῦ. εἶτα ποῖ ποτε ὁ Παῦλος ἡμῖν οἰχήσεται λέγων, “ οὐ γὰρ ἐλάβετε πνεῦμα δουλείας πάλιν “ φόβον· ἀλλ’ ἐλάβετε Πνεῦμα υἱοθεσίας. ἐν ᾧ κράζομεν “ ὁ πατήρ;” εἰ δοῦλον ἐστὶν, ὡς κτιστὸν καὶ ποιητὸν τὸ Πνεῦμα Ἅγιον, πῶς ἐν αὐτῷ κράζομεν ἀββᾶ ὁ πατήρ; ἀλλὰ τῆς μὲν δουλείας ἀπαλλάττει τοὺς ἐν οἷς ἃν γένοιτο. ἀναμορφοῖ δὲ μᾶλ- λον εἰς τὴν ἐλευθερίαν καὶ υἱότητα· μετόχους ἀποδεικνύον τῆς οἰκείας φύσεως. οὐκ ἄρα δοῦλον ἐστίν. εἰ δὲ δὴ τοῦτο, οὐ κτίσμα. τὸ δὲ καὶ τὸ εἰναι κτίσμα, καὶ τὸ ἐν δούλοις τετάχθαι διαφυγὸν, τῆς θείας λοιπὸν ἃν εἴη οὐσίας δηλαδή.
