THE LORD
(pt. 12)
Because all the Divine is in the Lord, therefore He has all power in the heavens and in the earths; which he also says in John:
The Father hath given all things into the hand of the Son (3:35).
In the same:
The Father hath given to the Son power over all flesh (17:2).
In Matthew:
All things are delivered to Me by the Father (11:27).
In the same
All power is given to Me in heaven and in earth (28:18).
Such power is Divine.
