Question 6 — The Order of Assumption

We must now consider the order of the foregoing assumption, and under this head there are six points of inquiry:

(1) Whether the Son of God assumed flesh through the medium of the soul?

• (2) Whether He assumed the soul through the medium of the spirit or mind?
• (3) Whether the soul was assumed previous to the flesh?
• (4) Whether the flesh of Christ was assumed by the Word previous to being united to the soul?
• (5) Whether the whole human nature was assumed through the medium of the parts?
• (6) Whether it was assumed through the medium of grace?
