Using the reasoning that defends the trinity, it and the apostles are a unity
|
Matthew 10:40, Jesus is made to say to his
apostles, "He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me
receiveth him that sent me." By this expression the Christians are
reduced to the necessity of believing that Jesus and his apostles are
identical; and as they are taught that three make one, they ought, by
parity of reasoning, to deduce the inference from the present passage,
that the trinity, with the twelve apostles, make altogether one unity.
