But his outfit (leather breastplate with lambrequins, coat hooked to the shoulder – the paludamentum ) is that of the Roman emperors, who, like him, have omnipotence, including in the army. His cult is widely diffused in all the provinces of the Empire where the military presence is important, notably in the Danubian provinces.” … COMMENT: “For He is called omnipotent on account of His doing what He wills, not on account of His suffering what He wills not; for if that should befall Him, He would by no means be omnipotent. Wherefore, He cannot do some things for the very reason that He is omnipotent.” –Augustine of Hippo
