But against this it is thus opposed: the Will of God is the Nature or the Essence of God, because for God the ""to be"" is not one thing, ""to will"" the other; and for that reason, just as there is one Essence of Three Persons, so also one Will. Therefore if God by nature is God, He is also by will God; and if the Word of God by nature is the Son of God, He is also by will the Son of God.
Peter Lombard
