Just as someone who wishes to see God, who is invisible by nature and cannot be seen at all, can perceive and know Him from His works, so anyone who does not perceive Christ with the mind should at least learn who He is from the works done through His body and test whether they are human works or God's.
If they are human, let him mock; but if they are known to be not human but God's, let him not laugh at what deserves no mockery. Rather, let him marvel that divine things have been revealed to us through such humble means, that through death immortality has reached everyone, and that through the Incarnation of the Word the providence over all things has been made known, together with its Giver and Maker, the Word of God Himself.
For He became human so that we might be deified. He manifested Himself through a body so that we might receive knowledge of the invisible Father. He endured insult from human beings so that we might inherit incorruption. He Himself suffered no harm, for He is impassible and incorruptible, the very Word and God; but in His own impassibility He preserved and saved the suffering human beings for whose sake He endured these things.
In short, the Savior's achievements accomplished through His Incarnation are so many and so great that anyone who tried to recount them would be like someone looking over the open sea and trying to count its waves. Just as the eye cannot take in all the waves, because new ones keep coming and escape the observer's sight, so anyone who tries to grasp all Christ's achievements in the body cannot contain them all even in thought. More pass beyond his consideration than he thinks he has grasped.
It is better, then, not to try to speak of the whole when one cannot fully tell even a part, but to mention one more thing and leave the whole for you to marvel at. Everything is equally marvelous, and wherever one looks, one sees the divinity of the Word and is filled with awe.
