Post subject: | Patrick Harris: Could Jesus have separated Divinity from Humanity |
I'd like to briefly interrupt the political thoughts for a theological question. Was Jesus able to completely separate his divinity from his humanity on earth?I'm putting some notes together for a study on The God who came to save and in my devotional this morning the author I was reading seem to believe that if Jesus had died as the Son of God and not the Son of man there would have been no sacrifice for our sins. Leading me to believe that the author thought they could be separated as a matter of choice. |

From the time I was first licensed with the AoG in 1986 until now, I have always belived the word Son,in relation to Jesus,always denotes humanity and not deity. This is the case whether we call him Son of Man or Son of God |

Yet, deity did not die on the cross. Deity cannot die |

And yet the charge of deicide was just accusation against Jews whom they accused as killing Christ and were labeled as Christ-killers by the church, thus justifying persecution at the hands of the church.In the fulness of time He was born of a woman, yet Jesus became God in the flesh as the Son of God.The humanity and deity of Christ was thought settled long ago by ancient Church councils but the enigma still raises its riddle.So, do we believe Jesus to be a bifurcation, the splitting of a main body into two parts - as Mary's son He is human, and as God's Son, He is divine? Or do we believe Him to be the perfect union between the DNA from His biological mother and the spiritual DNA of His Father?Paul tells us Jesus, though in preexistent status as a form of God did not see His position as something be asserted when He took on the likeness of man and became a bond-servant leading Him to be obedient until death on a cross.He never seized executive privileges but deferred to His Father and the Mission. He had a destiny and though the flesh was weak in the garden His spirit was willing.Jesus died on the cross as Mary's son, and as God's son. Both grieved His death. While we attempt to sort out the details that are sometimes too deep to fathom, Jesus did what He did to fulfill the desire of His Father and complete the effects of His mission. Through His Death and Resurrection we have the hope of redemption and the impartation of resurrection life. And we have the hope of His return.So, in short: I don't know The HammerMi kamocah ba'elim AdonaiWho is like you, Adonai, among the mighty? (Exodus 15:11 |

The question is....was this emptying pre-incarnation or post-incarnation |

Strong's is a good tool but it doesn't always catch the nuance of words in their context.In Philippians 2:7, but emptied Himself, denoting Jesus did not selfishly exploit His divinity, which He possessed before His Incarnation, but subordinated His own will to accomplish the desire and design of the Father.The ultimate subordination was exemplified in His obedience unto death. |
