Truly and properly God and truly and properly man!

'We believe that in the person of Jesus Christ the divine and human natures are united; so that He is truly and properly God, and truly and properly man'

Jesus as man -
Jesus spoke of Himself as being man (John. 8:40)
John the Baptist and the apostles did so even when speaking of His dignity and glory (John. 1:30, Acts. 2:22 & 13:38, Romans. 1:3)

The New Testament shows that Jesus was subject to all the limitations of human existance, using for His life and developement only such resources as are available to humanity.

This is shown in the physical, emotional, mental, social, moral and spiritual aspects of His being.

He possessed a human body, capable of ordinary physical sensations. He hungered (Mark. 11:12), ate (Mark. 2:16), thirsted (John. 19:28), was wearied (John. 4:6), slept (Matt. 8:24), wept (John. 11:35), and died (John. 19:30).

In the moral and spiritual aspects of life He was 'in all points tempted like as we are' (Heb. 4:15).

Jesus' Divine Nature -
At the baptism of Jesus the announcement was made:
'This is my Son, whom I am pleased with' (Mark. 1:11)

To Him are ascribed those powers and perfections which belong only to God:
Every divine attribute (John. 14:9; 16:15; Col. 2:9).
The divine holiness (Heb. 7:26; Rev. 3:7).
The divine love (John. 15:9; Eph. 3:19).
Eternal existance (John. 1:2; 8:58; Rev. 1:11).
Omnipotence (Matt. 28:18; Phil. 3:21).
Omnipresence (Matt. 18:20; 28:20).
Omniscience (Col. 2:3).
Unchangeableness (Heb. 13:8).

The self-giving nature of the love of God, and the intensity of the divine purpose to bring humanity into a living fellowship with Himself could be revealed in no other way. The might of the divine holiness, love and truth is revealed by the fact that in their strength Jesus won the victory over evil. Because the Lord Jesus Christ is both God and man!

May this teaching be a blessing to you! All for His glory!
Lord let it be so! Hallelujah! Miss you all, Love & Prayers always!
