Reply. That the Son of God assumed an intellect has been defined
against the Arians and Apollinarians as belonging to the faith.
Scriptural proof. Jesus says: "Learn of Me because I am meek and
humble of heart."[757] Christ was also obedient and merited,
which was possible only if He had a human intellect and a human will;
for the divine intellect and the divine will cannot be the principle of
an act of obedience as regards a higher will.
Theological proof. The principal reason in this proof is that, if
Christ did not have a human intellect, then He was not truly man,
which is contrary both to what He Himself said and to Scripture.
