But this which is said that the Word was made flesh, ought not to be understood as though it were converted into flesh or confusedly mingled therewith; but only that it took from the womb of the Virgin a human body, to be a temple in which He dwelt. And He who was the Son of God was made the Son of Man, not by confusion of substance but by unity of person: that is, He so joined and united His divinity with the humanity that He had taken, that each of the two natures retained its properties; and nevertheless Jesus Christ has not two distinct persons, but only one.~John Calvin Institutes
