Sometimes there were more kings than one in Sparta, who governed by joint authority. A king was occasionally sent to some neighboring state in character of a Spartan ambassador. Did he, when so sent, cease to be a king of Sparta, because he was also an ambassador? No, he did not divest himself of his royal dignity, but only added to it that of public deputation. So Christ, in becoming man, did not cease to be God; but though he ever was, and still continued to be, King of the whole creation, acted as the voluntary Servant and Messenger of the Father.
