Section 11

strengthening or enriching of the human virtues with the divine attributes.

In order to be strengthened and enriched in our human virtues with the divine attributes, we need to have God within us essentially, and we need to have God upon us economically. This means that we need to be born of God in order to possess God's essence. We also need to be anointed with God in order to have Him as our power. When we have been born of God to have His essence and have been anointed by Him to have Him as our power, then we become a God-man, ready to live in the highest standard of morality. In this kind of living the human virtues are strengthened and enriched by the divine attributes.

QUALIFIED TO CARRY OUT

HIS GOD-GIVEN MINISTRY

In Luke 4:1-13 we see that the fully equipped Man-Savior was led by the Spirit to the wilder ness where He faced the tempter and defeated him. His victory qualified Him to carry out His God-given ministry. For this reason, from 4:14 He began to minister. The preparation of the Man-Savior, therefore, was completed in His being tested. After gaining the victory over the

Devil's temptation, He was fully prepared and equipped to carry out the ministry God had given Him.
