To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If as an absolute being he was perfect, how did he remain perfect when he became a relative being ? The study of this problem has generally driven philosophy into pantheism, but where it has main- tained its hold on theism, it has been forced to suppose that a change occurred in God at the time of creation, by which he remained absolute in regard to himself, though he became relative in regard to that which he created. Two Gods had thus to be imagined, one absolute and eternal, the other relati...ve and existing from the beginning of created things. But these two had to be one, or else the first or absolute God would have been relative to the second, and so the old difficulty would have been revived. Hence there was need of a mystery ; God was one and yet two, two persons and one substance. The first was God as he was through all eternity, the second was God as he was manifested in creation, his representative with everything but himself Thus the second was a mediator between the first and the world.
