speratus said:

The attributes of the one nature are never mingled and never become the attributes of the other nature. However, in the unity of person, what is attributed to the one nature can be attributed to the other nature.

Will you say then that the divine nature of Christ is therefore finite, physical, and that it needed to grow in wisdom, even as the human nature? What is attributed to one nature can be attributed to the Person of Christ, as He consists of two natures. However, the divine is not human and the human is not divine.

The implications of the erroneous Calvinist hypostatic doctrine extend beyond the meaning the sacrament. For example, their doctrine of atonement is also faulty. If a mere man dies for us, we remain lost. But, in the communication of the attributes, God suffered, God died, God's blood saves us. If a mere man dies for us, we remain lost. But, in the communication of the attributes, God suffered, God died, God's blood saves us.

Christ did not die in His divinity, but in His humanity. To say that He died in His divinity requires that the nature of the divine be mutable, i.e., subject to change. This is impossible.
