QUESTION 6

OF THE ORDER OF ASSUMPTION

(In Six Articles)

We must now consider the order of the foregoing assumption, and under

this head there are six points of inquiry:

(1) Whether the Son of God assumed flesh through the medium of the

soul?

(2) Whether He assumed the soul through the medium of the spirit or

mind?

(3) Whether the soul was assumed previous to the flesh?

(4) Whether the flesh of Christ was assumed by the Word previous to

being united to the soul?

(5) Whether the whole human nature was assumed through the medium of

the parts?

(6) Whether it was assumed through the medium of grace?
