1176 Book VII. 1177 Chapter I. As he is going to reply to the slanders of his opponents he implores the aid of Divine grace to teach a prayer to be used by those who undertake to dispute with heretics. 1178 Chapter II. He meets the objection taken from these words: No one gave birth to one who had existed before her. 1179 Chapter III. He replies to the cavil that the one who is born must be of one substance with the one who bears. 1180 Chapter IV. How God has shown His Omnipotence in His birth in time as well as in everything else. 1181 Chapter V. He shows by proofs drawn from nature itself, that the law which his opponents lay down; viz., that the one born ought to be of one substance with the one who bears, fails to hold good in many cases. 1182 Chapter VI. He refutes another argument of Nestorius, in which he tried to make out that Christ was like Adam in every point. 1183 Chapter VII. Heretics usually cover their doctrines with a cloak of holy Scripture. 1184 Chapter VIII. The heretics attribute to Christ only the shadow of Divinity, and so assert that he is to be worshipped together with God but not as God. 1185 Chapter IX. How those are wrong who say that the birth of Christ was a secret, since it was clearly shown even to the patriarch Jacob. 1186 Chapter X. He collects more witnesses of the same fact. 1187 Chapter XI. How the devil was forced by many reasons to the view that Christ was God. 1188 Chapter XII. He compares this notion and reasonable suspicion of the devil with the obstinate and inflexible idea of his opponents, and shows that this last is worse and more blasphemous than the former. 1189 Chapter XIII. How the devil always retained this notion of Christ's Divinity (because of His secret working which he experienced) even up to His Cross and Death. 1190 Chapter XIV. He shows how heretics pervert holy Scripture, by replying to the argument drawn from the Apostle's words, “Without father, without mother,” etc.: Heb. vii. 1191 Chapter XV. How Christ could be said by the Apostle to be without genealogy. 1192 Chapter XVI. He shows that like the devil when tempting Christ, the heretics garble and pervert holy Scripture. 1193 Chapter XVII. That the glory and honour of Christ is not to be ascribed to the Holy Ghost in such a way as to deny that it proceeds from Christ Himself, as if all that excellency, which was in Him, was another's and proceeded from another source. 1194 Chapter XVIII. How we are to understand the Apostle's words: “He appeared in the flesh, was justified in the Spirit,” etc. 1195 Chapter XIX. That it was not only the Spirit, but Christ Himself also who made Him to be feared. 1196 Chapter XX. He tries by stronger and weightier arguments to destroy that notion. 1197 Chapter XXI. That it must be ascribed equally to Christ and the Holy Ghost that His flesh and Humanity became the temple of God. 1198 Chapter XXII. That the raising up of Christ into heaven is not to be ascribed to the Spirit alone. 1199 Chapter XXIII. He continues the same argument to show that Christ had no need of another's glory as He had a glory of His own. 1200 Chapter XXIV. He supports this doctrine by the authority of the blessed Hilary.
