Theodori presbyteri Rhaethensis Libellus adversus haereses quibus jam olim hypostatica duarum in Christo naturarum unio oppugnata est (1576) - Page 16 - Source Library
Theodore, who obtained the rule of the city called Mopsuestia in the land of the Cilicians, who, moving in a direction diametrically opposed to Apollinaris, with an audacious soul and a fearless heart, poured out unspeakable insults upon the Lord Christ, calling Him a common man of our own kind, who, having progressed, received the grace of God to be called God. And he claimed that from the baptism in the Jordan, he was deemed worthy among the prophets of the gift of the Holy Spirit, being baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. He claimed that God the Word, on account of his surpassing virtue, dwelt in him by good pleasure, and made him a participant in divine dignity and adoration only after his final perfection. After these and many other such blasphemies, he acknowledges two natures in Christ, separated and distinct, joined together only by a certain habit. And this is this second aberration from which began the not-correct profession of one nature and of two natures separated and distinct by themselves in Christ.
