Liberal theologians often struggle to accept the deity of Jesus while Evangelical believers are hard pressed to come to terms with His humanity. The scriptures are emphatically clear regarding both. Although Jesus was divine, He was also fully human. When He lived on this earth, He was not God in a human disguise, rather he was fully human. He voluntarily relinquished every advantage of His divine nature to become a full-fledged human being. Hebrews 2:17 says, “…in all things He had to be made like His brethren…”
“His state was divine, yet he did not cling to his equality with God but emptied himself to assume the condition of a slave, and became as men are…”
— Philippians 2:6-7 (Jerusalem Bible)
Lord renew our minds so we can fully grasp all You have done for us. Amen.
