»πάντα γάρ«, φαοίν, »ὁ θεὸς ἐξ οὐκ ὄντων ἐποίησε«, συναναλαμβάνοντες τῇ τῶν ἁπάντων λογιχῶν τε καὶ ἀλόγων κτίσει καὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ. οἶς ἀκολούθως καί φασιν αὐτὸν τρεπτῆς >εἶναι φύσεως, ἀρετῆς τε καὶ κακίας ἐπιδεκτικόν, καὶ τῇ ἐξ οὐκ ὄντων ὑποθέσει καὶ τὰς θείας τοῦ εἶναι αὐτὸν ἀεὶ συναναιροῦντες γραφάς, αἵ τὸ ἄτρεπτον τοῦ λόγου καὶ τὴν θεότητα τῆς σοφίας τοῦ λόγου σημαίνουσιν, ἅ ἐστιν ὁ Κριστός. δυνάμεθα γοῦν καὶ ἡμεπις«, φασὶν οἱ ἀλάστορες, »υἱοὶ γενέσθαι θεοῦ, ὥσπερ κἀκεπινος«.
