Jesus Himself and I agree with Him rather than with 
"orthodoxy"... ie:
 
"While the Pharisees were gathered 
together Jesus asked them, saying "What think 
ye of Christ?
Whose son is he?"  They 
say unto him.  The son of David.  He saith unto them.  

 
"How then doth David in spirit call him Lord 
saying The Lord said unto my Lord, sit thou on my right 
hand till I make thine enemies thy footstool?"  If 
David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
 
Looks like you are stuck in the same rut as the 
Pharisees of that day were Bill  (Matt 22:42-46)

Are you saying, Judy, that Mary is not of 
David's lineage? You had better think this through, as Jesus absolutely 
must be of the Seed of Abraham, which passes through David on its way to 
the fulfillment of the promise in Christ. "Now to Abraham and his Seed 
were the promises made. He does not say, 'And to seeds,' as of many, but 
as of one, 'And to your Seed,' who is Christ" (Gal 2.16). And it is not 
by way of adoption that Abraham's Seed finds fulfillment in Christ. That 
would be a blasphemous thought: "What purpose then does the 
law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the 
Seed should come to whom the promise was made" (Gal 
2.19).
 
You know, Judy, you always say "Show me in 
Scripture." Well, you have been shown. Now, is that all smoke, or are 
you going to live by your words?

it? I am not making a bigger deal of this than I ought, Judy. I want you 
to have every opportunity to know and understand the error of your 
doctrine, because, believe it or not, it does make a difference how you 
answer the question: "Who do you say that I am?"
 
I don't now and never have 
denied that Jesus was given and walked about in a flesh body Bill.  
What I do deny is that is was a SINFUL AND FALLEN flesh body exactly and in every way like those 
He was sent to redeem.
 
Please don't let your disdain for people (and this 
your elder brothers in Christ) cloud your ability to affirm truth when 
it is presented to you.
 
I reject the accusation 
above since I have no disdain for persons - only the doctrines that do 
not conform them to godliness and holiness  You know Bill God juxtaposes the two kinds of seed in 
Genesis 3:15. I wonder whose loins the seed of the 
adversary came through.

 
They (feminine plural) came through the 
loins of Adam, just as did every human being who came after him. All 
that Adam was capable of producing after his fall and 
subsequent removal from the Garden was human beings destined to 
die. Yet for some reason the first fallen words out of his mouth -- 
that is, after their encounter with God -- were ones which changed 
his wife's name from "Woman," the one who had been made from his flesh, 
etc., to "Eve," the mother of all who live. 
 
So are you saying the Gen 
3:15 prophecy refers to Eve rather than to Mary or to both of 
them?
 
Judy, if Jesus is not of Eve's 
blood then she is not his mother. Her flesh is not his flesh 
and her "Seed" (masculine singular) does not reach him. The truth is, 
however, that it does! Adam was privy to something that you deny. 
He calls her the mother of all the living.
 
It is possible to 
be biolgically living and still be spiritually dead 
Bill. 
 
Something was going to spring from her womb that 
was going to justify life for all life. Follow the Seed promised to Eve 
throughout the Old Testament and you will discover an amazing story. Let 
that Seed pass through Seth, and Noah, and Abraham, and Jacob, and 
Judah, and David, and let it find fulfillment in the womb of Mary, and 
you will begin to realize the promise. But spiritualize it into 
abstraction and you could end up missing it all. Bill

  God did not merely send an agent to make things OK or a

  redeem and restore his human creatures along with the rest of creation.

  creation - 
  It will be destroyed by fire before the New Jerusalem descends from heaven.  He makes ALL 
  things new.
   
  This is the truth that gives meaning and power to Jesus' 
  affirmation that God so loved the world that he sent his son to save it. If 
  preexisten is mythical or some other nonfactual nature, then Jesus is not 
  deity and this affirmation of God's love for and intervention on behalf of his

Are you saying, Judy, that Mary is not of

must be of the Seed of Abraham, which passes through David on its way to 
the fulfillment of the promise in Christ. "Now to Abraham and his Seed 
were the promises made. He does not say, 'And to seeds,' as of many, but 
as of one, 'And to your Seed,' who is Christ" (Gal 2.16). And it is not 
by way of adoption that Abraham's Seed finds fulfillment in Christ. That 
would be a blasphemous thought: "What purpose then does the 
law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the 
Seed should come to whom the promise was made" (Gal 
2.19).

They (feminine plural) came through the loins

live. 
 
So are you saying the Gen 3:15

Judy, if Jesus is not of Eve's blood

Noone is spiritualizing anything 
into "abstraction" Bill.  Are you willing to let God be God or 
not?  Jesus did not come to make some biological statement - or to carry demonized humanity 
off to heaven.  He was pure and holy at his birth which is a 
claim NOT ONE OTHER 
biological human being has been able to make since Adam fell and this 
includes John the Baptist who was spirit filled from his mother's 
womb.
 
When God sent Jesus believe me He was 
not making a BIOLOGICAL STATEMENT and striving over words
while clinging to erroneous doctrine 
only makes it worse.  Why did Jesus say to Nicodemus:
 
"If I have told you earthly things and 
you believe not, how shall you believe if I tell you of heavenly things" (Jn

  Nor does she believe that Christ was God in the flesh   
  
   
  I would ask you once more to control yourself 
  JD and refrain from putting your words in my mouth.
  I am quite capable of speaking for myself; 
  the above is incorrect.
   
  Oh really??  !!  Your words 
  , not mine  --  "  
  Jesus 

  could not 
  have been exactly the same as us because we are all born into an Eph 
  2  reality 
  and He was not.   As i said  
  --  Judy does not use the word "human" as the rest of us use that 
  word.   
   
   
  unless you ,too, believe that could be God while being something 
  less than God at the same time. 
   
  Yes, the Son of God. (John 14:28) for whom 
  the Father was "greater" than he. 
   
  If Christ is God in the flesh, then He is fully God because He 
  simply could not be anything less than fully god without being 
  something other than God at the same time.   Neither can He 
  be only part human without being somethin other than human at the same 
  time.  
   
  Of course he can.  He can be whoever God 
  says he is and wants him to be.  He 
  came as the suffering servant,
  remember??
   
  Judy defends the notion that Jesus is 
  only part God, in the above.   She ignores the fact that 
  "servant" is a station in life while "God" is descriptive of the very 
  being of the Divine.   To be part human is to be something 
  other than human.  To be part God is to be something other than 
  God.   Whatever Jesus is, whoever Jesus is -  He is the 
  SAME yesterday, today AND FOREVER  --  which means He never 
  changes.  Once God, always God.   

   
   
  When we reject the incarnation of Christ because of  the 
  fact that we cannot comprehend how He can be fully God and fully man, 
  it  is an insult to the notion that He is unique  (only 
  begotton = unique).   Uniqueness,  true uniquessness as 
  in "one of a kind"  cannot be considered rationally.   
  
   
  He can not be fully God and fully fallen man 
  as you are trying to claim which to me is akin to Calvin 
  making
  God responsible for the fall and all sin 
  thereafter because in Calvin's opinion he decreed all 
  that.

  Are you saying, Judy, that Mary is not of 
  David's lineage? You had better think this through, as Jesus 
  absolutely must be of the Seed of Abraham, which passes through David 
  on its way to the fulfillment of the promise in Christ. "Now to 
  Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, 'And to 
  seeds,' as of many, but as of one, 'And to your Seed,' who is Christ" 
  (Gal 2.16). And it is not by way of adoption that Abraham's Seed finds 
  fulfillment in Christ. That would be a blasphemous thought: "What 
  purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of 
  transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom 
  the promise was made" (Gal 2.19).
   
  You know, Judy, you always say "Show me 
  in Scripture." Well, you have been shown. Now, is that all smoke, or

Judy; I don't understand the question. 
 
Oh, 
weren't we discussing your concept or marriage as a picture of the 
unity of the Godhead? 
The same is true with God. The 
bible teaches that the Lord is "one" and it uses the same word when 
saying this; 
hence there is a oneness or unity 
within the nature of God, a coming together of a plurality in 
union
 
I am responding that God is a 
Spirit and so the one flesh/marriage Godhead symbology kind of falls 
flat.
So what would be the purpose of 
illustrating God's Kingdom with something that can never inherit 
it?
 
My hunch however is that it will be 
because God so loved the world ...  
 
Now where does the above fit 
into  this picture - says Judy scratching her 
head

  Why is that, Judy? Did "they" not

  Are you saying, Judy, that Mary is not of 
  David's lineage? You had better think this through, as Jesus 
  absolutely must be of the Seed of Abraham, which passes through David 
  on its way to the fulfillment of the promise in Christ. "Now to 
  Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, 'And to 
  seeds,' as of many, but as of one, 'And to your Seed,' who is Christ" 
  (Gal 2.16). And it is not by way of adoption that Abraham's Seed finds 
  fulfillment in Christ. That would be a blasphemous thought: "What 
  purpose then does the law serve? It was added because of 
  transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom 
  the promise was made" (Gal 2.19).

when I want to offer support He states the same as you and I 
Judy. 

Gen 3:15 And I will put 
enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it 
shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. 

Adam Clark 
wrote:

Gen 3:15 - 
I will put enmity between thee and the woman - This has been 
generally supposed to apply to a certain enmity subsisting between men 
and serpents; but this is rather a fancy than a reality. It is yet to be 
discovered that the serpentine race have any peculiar enmity against 
mankind, nor is there any proof that men hate serpents more than they do 
other noxious animals. Men have much more enmity to the common rat and 
magpie than they have to all the serpents in the land, because the 
former destroy the grain, etc., and serpents in general, far from 
seeking to do men mischief, flee his approach, and generally avoid his 
dwelling. If, however, we take the word nachash to mean 
any of the simia or ape species, we find a more consistent meaning, as 
there is scarcely an animal in the universe so detested by most women as 
these are; and indeed men look on them as continual caricatures of 
themselves. But we are not to look for merely literal meanings here: it 
is evident that Satan, who actuated this creature, is alone intended in 
this part of the prophetic declaration. God in his endless mercy has put 
enmity between men and him; so that, though all mankind love his 
service, yet all invariably hate himself. Were it otherwise, who could 
be saved? A great point gained towards the conversion of a sinner is to 
convince him that it is Satan he has been serving, that it is to him he 
has been giving up his soul, body, goods, etc.; he starts with horror 
when this conviction fastens on his mind, and shudders at the thought of 
being in league with the old murderer. But there is a deeper meaning in 
the text than even this, especially in these words, it shall bruise thy 
head, or rather, ??? hu, He; who? the seed of the woman; the 
person is to come by the woman, and by her alone, without the 
concurrence of man. Therefore the address is not to Adam and Eve, but to 
Eve alone; and it was in consequence of this purpose of God that Jesus 
Christ was born of a virgin; this, and this alone, is what is implied in 
the promise of the seed of the woman bruising the head of the serpent. 
Jesus Christ died to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself, and to 
destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil. Thus he 
bruises his head - destroys his power and lordship over mankind, turning 
them from the power of Satan unto God; Act_26:18. And Satan bruises his heel - 
God so ordered it, that the salvation of man could only be brought about 
by the death of Christ; and even the spiritual seed of our blessed Lord 
have the heel often bruised, as they suffer persecution, temptation, 
etc., which may be all that is intended by this part of the 
prophecy.

  Yes, the Son of God. (John 14:28) for whom the 
  Father was "greater" than he. 
   
  If Christ is God in the flesh, then He is fully God because He simply 
  could not be anything less than fully god without being something other 
  than God at the same time.   Neither can He be only part human 
  without being somethin other than human at the same 
time.  
   
  Of course he can.  He can be whoever God 
  says he is and wants him to be.  He came 
  as the suffering servant,
  remember??
   
  Judy defends the notion that Jesus is 
  only part God, in the above.   She ignores the fact that 
  "servant" is a station in life while "God" is descriptive of the very 
  being of the Divine.   To be part human is to be something other 
  than human.  To be part God is to be something other than 
  God.   Whatever Jesus is, whoever Jesus is -  He is the 
  SAME yesterday, today AND FOREVER  --  which means He never 
  changes.  Once God, always God.   
   
   
  When we reject the incarnation of Christ because of  the fact 
  that we cannot comprehend how He can be fully God and fully man, it 
   is an insult to the notion that He is unique  (only begotton = 
  unique).   Uniqueness,  true uniquessness as in "one of a 
  kind"  cannot be considered rationally.   
   
  He can not be fully God and fully fallen man as 
  you are trying to claim which to me is akin to Calvin making
  God responsible for the fall and all sin 
  thereafter because in Calvin's opinion he decreed all that.
  Your comments about Calvin beg the 
  question at hand.   You just got through saying  
  He can be whoever God says he is and 
  wants him to be.  So, He can 
  be fully God and fully man  !!  You have just admitted the 
  possibility  !!!  
   
  I believe in a triune God because I SEE three personages ,  not 
  because I can explain that reality to anyone !!  It is faith that

Jesus is the seed of the woman as the prophecy in 
Genesis foretells. He was fathered by the Holy Spirit
Now if you want to say that the Holy Spirit is the 
"sperma" of David; I know that prophetically he is called
the son of David but David Himself also called him Lord 
ie:  "The Lord said to my Lord"  ... So if I were you
I would either stop alluding to the "sperma" or explain 
how the Holy Spirit and procreation fathered him all
at the same time.

  I am quite capable of speaking for myself; the above

  Yes, the Son of God. (John 14:28) for whom the Father

  If Christ is God in the flesh, then He is fully God because He simply 
  could not be anything less than fully god without being something other than 
  God at the same time.   Neither can He be only part human without 
  being somethin other than human at the same time.  
   
  Of course he can.  He can be whoever God says he 
  is and wants him to be.  He came as the 
  suffering servant,
  remember??
   
  When we reject the incarnation of Christ because of  the fact that 
  we cannot comprehend how He can be fully God and fully man is an insult to the 
  notion that He is unique  (only begotton = unique).   
  Uniqueness,  true uniquessness as in "one of a kind"  cannot be 
  considered rationally.   
   
  He can not be fully God and fully fallen man as you 
  are trying to claim which to me is akin to Calvin making
  God responsible for the fall and all sin thereafter 
  because in Calvin's opinion he decreed all that.
   
  I believe in a triune God because I SEE three personages ,  not 
  because I can explain that reality to anyone !!  It is faith that carries 
  me beyond doubt on this matter and reminds me of my place in 
  the order of this  universe  -  the same universe of which God 
  is the Creator.  
   
  The triune Godhead can be seen in the

From: Taylor 

  
Luke writes that 
Jesus was born of the fruit of David's genitals (Act 2.30): 

 
Not exactly Bill 
"David being a prophet and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, 

that of the 
fruit of his loins, according to the 
flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne."
Right, so in Matt 
we have a genealogy that shows Joseph is in David's lineage but he 
is
hardly the 
biological father of Jesus is he?  Even though Jesus is born in his 
lineage.
 
hence he was not some kind of new humanity, freshly 
brewed with new material, unrelated to fallen humankind; 

No, he is human like 
David was human, born on our side of the fall.
 
He did not come to 
this earth through procreation Bill. He did not have a human father - He may 
have been
born 
on this side of the fall but he was most definitely not born fallen. One can 
not be fallen and holy ATST
 
And to the naysayers Jesus said, "Before Abraham was, I 
AM"; hence Jesus pre-dated even Abraham, David' predecessor. But it was not 
his humanity which pre-dated David; it was his divinity. And notice: he 
did not say that his Father was the I AM, and that he was copying him. 
No, Jesus said that he (and this before his glorification) is 
I AM; that is, Yahweh, the LORD who covenants with 
Abraham. 
 
So??  Noone here disputes his 
heritage.
 
Jesus is FULLY GOD and fully man, two realities in 
one person, united -- but make him anything less than God or 
anything more than man and you are courting a demon, who is 
powerless to save you.
 
Either that or you are courting religious 
spirits who are filling your head with the doctrines they have been 
promoting for thousands of years.  He 
doesn't have to be fully anything. He is who the Word of God
says He is - which is the Word made 
flesh.

  From: "David Miller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
  Likeness might mean like but not exactly like, but it also might mean 
  so much like it as to be indistinguishable.  When we say that 
  Jesus is the image of Father, or that he is like the Father, so much 
  so that when you have seen Jesus you have seen the Father, it might be 
  inappropriate to say that Jesus is like the Father, but not exactly 
  like him.  Do you see it differently, Judy?  David 
  Miller.
   
  I don't know   When He walked the earth 
  as a man He was not the Father 
  because He prayed to 
  the Father and when He said these words to Philip ie: 
  "If you have seen me 
  you have seen the Father" (John 14:9) I believe He is 
  referring to the ministry rather than to Himself personally because everything 
  He said and did (both 
  works and words) he had first seen the Father 
  saying 
  and doing which he explains further in John 14:10 and John 5:19.

The only thing which could have severed that union was the one thing which 
he did not do:sin. Hence in his person, he was able to undo that which 
had indeed produced schizophreniain the relationship between humanity 
and God.
 
Tell me why he (Jesus) HAD to be like US in every way?  Why couldn't 
he have been like thefirst Adam before the fall, the one who was 
created?  Jesus was not exactly procreated likeus since he had no 
human father so that must mess up your thesis at least a little.
 
And were he not like us in every way, he could not have produced this 
reconciliation; for whathe would have done in a flesh unlike our own 
would have had no bearing upon human flesh,and we would therefore still

I'm asking Bill, what husband, and what schism?
 
Oh, I thought you were married. The bible says that you and your husband 
(if you had one) were to become "one" flesh, in other words the two of you 
in coming together would be united -- and not just physically, I might add; 
it is the marriage "union" after all. The same is true with God. The bible 
teaches that the Lord is "one" and it uses the same word when saying this; 
hence there is a oneness or unity within the nature of God, a coming 
together of a plurality in union.
 
God is a Spirit (Jn 4:24) so there is no way that this would be the same 
concept Bill.  Sure the Godhead are One and unitedin Spirit.
 
And so, since you suggested that if Christ be fully God and fully human 
there must be a schism, I was just wondering about the schism you have with 
your man. Why instead of schism aren't you united?
 
In marriage between humans it is "one flesh" Bill
 
There would only be a schism between the two natures of Christ if there 
were disunity between the two.The person of Christ had no disunity; 
hence no schism.  Bill
 
There would have been disunity "big time" if he had a human nature - just 
like us and was in fact wholly God ATST; schizophrenicwould be the right 
term.  Also "Flesh and blood DO NOT inherit God's Kingdom" Bill so what 
would be the purpose??

Dean,I think this is where "theology" gets itself tied in knots. This 
is what JD has been accusing me of for so long.How ironic that his 
mentor Bill would write something like this.  I think Lance just 
repeated it to qualify something.So their Jesus must have a schism in his 
personality (or nature).  What about his saying to Philip "If you 
haveseen me you have seen the Father"  We know he wasn't speaking of 
his physical body here; so does GodThe Father also have a schismatic 
personality.
 
cd: Judy can you define your usage of 'schismatic'.

Thanks David,
Just a few notations...
From: "David Miller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Judy, Jesus did 
not come ONLY to redeem us spiritually, but physically as well.  Jesus 
redeemed the whole man, spirit, soul, and body.  The body is the last 
thing to experience that redemption, which will be realized in the 
resurrection.
 
He came to make ALL things new - not to leave us as he 
found us ie:
2 Cor 5:17
 
The idea that what happened to Christ will happen to us is realized 
forcefully by acknowledging that he is indeed one of us.  He is not 
just our God.  He is our brother, born of the same flesh.
 
He called himself the Lord from Heaven and John the 
Baptist called him
that also saying "He who comes from above is above all" 
(John 3:31) for
God gives Him the Spirit without measure 
V.34
 
Consider Romans 6:5"For if we have been planted together in the 
likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his 
resurrection." The same analogy can be made 
of many things concerning Christ when we realize that he was a man just 
like us.
 
David, I struggled with this early on - that is, the 
idea that Jesus was just like us.
Today Rom 6:5 is saying to 
me that we must die to this old sinful flesh nature to
be planted in the likeness of his death and be eligible 
to be part of His
resurrection.
 
Consider the following passage:
 
Hebrews 12:3-4(3) For consider him that endured such contradiction of 
sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.(4) 
Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
 
The idea that gives an instruction like this power and force is the concept 
that he was just like us.  When he resisted sin, he did not have an 
edge over us that was any different than what we have.  
 
What was the sin he resisted to the shedding of 
blood?  Laying his physical
life down voluntarily to take on the sin of the whole 
world at the cross.  I've
never had to make a choice like that one so far.  
Have you?
 
Therefore, even as he resisted sin to the shedding of his own blood, so too 

we can find strength to do the same.  We know this when we realize 
that he 
was made in the likeness of the same sinful flesh as we have, yet he 
resisted 
the temptations of that flesh and did not succomb to it.
 
I have never taken comfort in that David. The comfort I 
receive comes from
the fact that when God 
raised him from the dead he led captivity captive and 
gave gifts to men.  I 
have access to and faith in the same Word he used against 
the adversary in the wilderness and I know who was victorious at Calvary.  
The
way I understand it the 
flesh profits - his or ours.  He prevailed by the 
Spirit.
 
Hebrews 2:11(11) For both he that sanctifieth and they who are 
sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them 
brethren,
 
Those who are "sanctified" post Calvary?
 
Hebrews 2:14(14) Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh 
and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same
 
Hebrews 2:16-17(16) For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; 
but he took on him the seed of Abraham.(17) Wherefore in all things it 
behoved him to be made like unto his brethren
 
David Miller.

If Jesus were only like the first Adam and not like the rest of us, then he 
could onlyredeem those born of his own loins.  In order to redeem 
mankind, including Adam andEve and all of their descendants, he would 
have to become one of us.
 
Why?  What do loins have to do with spsiritual redemption and what it 
takes to redeemmankind?  His salvation unlike the covering of bulls 
and goats is eternal because hisblood is the blood of the eternal 
Spirit. (Hebrews 9:14)

Such does not bother the thesis of the humanity of Jesus one bit.  
Only if you arguethat Jesus did not inherit genetic material from Mary 
would it be a problem. The Biblegives every indication that Jesus was 
related to Mary, related to David, related toAbraham, and related to 
Adam.
 
Yes I understand the genealogies are important and relevant or they 
wouldn't be there...but I see their value as more spiritual than 
biolgical ie: Ishmael was a biolgical sonbut Isaac the child of 
Promise.  I understand blessings and curses to come downthrough 
families generationally in the spiritual sense even though there is 
abiolgical dimension also.

  Judy, you are completely misunderstanding 
  Bill.  When he speaks of the resurrection, he means bodies which are 
  transformed.  You are reading right past him and seeing something that is 
  not there, much like John does to nearly all my posts.  
   
  I am reading what he is saying 
  David - you may have some inside insight toward him that I don't 
  have.
  I read him saying the Jesus 
  the Christ was fully human (like us) which by nature is fallen in the first 
  Adam and ATST
  Fully God - which is am 
  impossible dichotomy.  He then went on to say that Jesus became 
  human so that he could
  save humanity and take them to 
  heaven.
   
  The mystery of Godliness, God manifest in 
  the flesh, is something taught in Scripture.  
   
  Yes, by way of the fullness of 
  the Holy Spirit in the body God provided for Him.  Can you see it any 
  other way?
   
  When you claim that the flesh of Jesus only 
  looked like our flesh but really was something very different, you are 
  deviating from the concept of "Christ was manifest in the flesh."  You 
  think you are not because you still think he was flesh, but your flesh is an 
  alien flesh that you constantly say was UNLIKE our flesh when the Scriptures 
  say he was LIKE us. 
   
  The ONLY deviation in 
  what I say is my claim that Jesus was pure and holy from his birth which fact 
  makes his flesh
  different from ours since ours 
  is fallen and we are the ones with the dichotomy of the two natures as 
  described by the apostle Paul in Romans 7:8.  I say Jesus the Christ 
  had no such dichotomy although he was severely 
  tested/tempted 
   
  You seem to think that Bill makes Jesus too 
  much like us, but the Bible does not prohibit this viewpoint anywhere.  
  
  In fact, it argues strongly that he was like 
  us in every way.  
   
  I don't see any strong 
  arguments in scripture for His humanity to be exactly like ours - to the 
  contrary, YET WITHOUT SIN 
  says it all.
   
  You have a problem understanding how there 
  can be unity between a God living in a defective 
  body.  I don't blame you, but my experience of the living Christ 
  in me helps me understand how it works.  
   
  Think about it David; Satan 
  has been building strongholds and has had familiar spirits in us and our 
  families for generations.
  As you know these do not leave 
  overnight - salvation is a walk of grace.  Do you think for one moment 
  the demons would
  dare to inhabit Jesus?  
  They wouldn't go anywhere near him, they were afraid he had come to torment 
  them before the time.
   
  It is simply the Spirit filled life.  
  When the spirit reigns and the flesh is kept dead, this is how Jesus 
  lived.  This is how we should live.
   
  I know He left us an example 
  that we should follow in His steps and as a body the Church ought to be doing 
  the same works
  However He lived and walked in 
  the kind of faith we have never ever seen duplicated.  The miracles, 
  walking on water, raising
  the dead.  All we 
  have seen so far are a few crumbs.  
   
  I've already shared the relevant passages 
  from Hebrews that helps us with those.  I hope you have not forgotten 
  them.  I still think you ignore them and do not adequately address 
  them.  If you would like me to post them again, just ask.
   
  I would like to see them again 
  but can't guarantee a change of heart.  I would need to see them by God's 
  Word - I'm sure
  you know what I mean.  I 
  get so frustrated that so much hinges on the Church Fathers.  Why is 
  that??  How can they state
  emphatically that Jesus is 
  fully human and fully God and that his humanity is not divine?  What kind 
  of double talk is that??

Likeness might mean like but not exactly like, but it also might mean so 
much like it as to be indistinguishable.  When we say that Jesus is the 
image of Father, or that he is like the Father, so much so that when you 
have seen Jesus you have seen the Father, it might be inappropriate to say 
that Jesus is like the Father, but not exactly like him.  Do you see it 
differently, Judy?  David Miller.
 
I don't know   When He walked the earth as a 
man He was not the Father 
because He prayed to the 
Father and when He said these words to Philip ie: 
"If you have seen me you 
have seen the Father" (John 14:9) I believe He is 
referring to the ministry 
rather than to Himself personally because 
everything 
He said and did (both 
works and words) he had first seen the Father saying 

and doing which he explains further in John 14:10 and John 5:19.

So that I know for sure what you mean to convey, let me ask you: do you as 
a human have "divine thoughts"?
 
Billcd: Yes to a limited degree-but I cannot hold the perspective that 
Christ is limited in His divine thinking.I realize that the flesh would 
influence one thinking to my limited 'divine 'thoughts but with Christ who 
walked according to the Spirit I see no limitations. Nor do I admit there 
has to be such weakness in us as we also have the Spirit-We simply are not 
willing to pray and fast and abstain from things as one should to weaken 
this flesh and hence allow more diviness to control us.- Original 
Message - From: Dean Moore
 
cd: Yes we agree if you view the Human part to also have divine 
thoughts.- Original Message - From: Taylor
 
If I understand you correctly, Dean, you believe that Christ while walking 
this earth was fully God. I DO TOO. And if I understand you correctly, you 
also believe that Christ while on this earth was fully human. I DO 
TOO.

  No, it is not a mixture, Judy; it is a union. 
  
   
  Hate to have to break it to you like this 
  Bill but there are some things Jesus will not be unified with
  because the Father is holy and so is He; 
  so someone is going to have to do some adjusting here.
   
  There is no confusion.
   
  I am not confused ... No.
   
   And that is your problem: you have a Jesus 
  that is partly this and partly that, but can't be what he came to save. 
  
   
  The only difference between my Jesus and 
  yours Bill is that mine is pure and holy and yours is not 
  because you are determined to 
  make Him conform 
  to our (fallen human) 
  image. 
   
  Yours is a mixture, Judy, 
   
  No Bill; mine is pure and holy - the exact 
  imagine of God the Father.  My Jesus, unlike yours, could 
  say in truth "If you have seen me you have seen the Father" - So let God be true and every man a 
  liar.
   
  a demigod, a hybrid, an alloy, Hermes morphing 
  into Aphrodite -- I don't know. 
   
  Neither do I Bill.  When you have 
  mixture you don't know what you've got do you??
   
  But it is not 
  Jesus Christ the Son of God, son of Mary.  Bill
   
  I know because Jesus Christ, Son of God, 
  son of Mary was the pure and holy Son of God who took 
  upon Himself the FORM of man so that He could bring to us salvation's plan 
  which sadly many wrest 
  to their own destruction..

  Why is that, Judy? Did "they" not create us

  Yes they did created the first 
  Adam in their nature and character spiritually - which "likeness" 
  
  Adam forfeited when 
  he chose to go with Eve into 
  disobedience by eating the wrong fruit.  
   
  Thereafter all men (including 
  us) are born into this world by procreation in the likeness of 
  the first Adam rather than the 
  likeness of God (Gen 5:3)
   
  The only possible way to

  become
  conformed to the image of the 
  second Adam which is the sole purpose for His coming 
  and His willingness to lay down 
  His human life as a perfect sacrifice in our 
  place.
   
  Laying aside the fact that you are making 
  much too much of Seth having been born in the image 
  of Adam (see Gen 9.6 and answer for me what 
  would be wrong, then, with killing someone who 
  was no longer created in God's image, 
  but in Adam's), 
   
  At the beginnign they were 
  created in God's image and now Noah who found grace is 
  starting
  over even though it didn't take 
  too many generations for the whole of humanity (all but 8 
ppl)
  to be destroyed.  I don't 
  believe God is interested in fellowshipping with a bunch of 
  devils.
   
  Judy, I fail to understand why that should 
  even prevent Christ from being united in his person, 
  his humanness with his divinity. 

   
  I understand.  It is 
  mixture; joining the holy with the profane which is something God 
  hates.
   
  The only thing which could have severed that 
  union was the one thing which he did not do: 
  sin. Hence in his person, he was able to undo 
  that which had indeed produced schizophrenia 
  in the relationship between humanity and God. 
  
   
  Tell me why he (Jesus) HAD to 
  be like US in every way?  Why couldn't he have been like 
  the
  first Adam before the fall, the 
  one who was created?  Jesus was not exactly procreated 
  like
  us since he had no human father 
  so that must mess up your thesis at least a little.
   
  And were he not like us in every way, he 
  could not have produced this reconciliation; for what 
  he would have done in a flesh unlike our own 
  would have had no bearing upon human flesh, 
  and we would therefore still be in sin.  
  Bill
   
  Not so; all he had to do was 
  meet God's conditions which apparently involved passing the
  test that A&E failed and he 
  did that in the wilderness... right after his baptism.

  and not just physically, I might add; it is the marriage "union" after 
  all. The same is true with God. The bible teaches that the Lord is "one" 
  and it uses the same word when saying this; hence there is a oneness or 
  unity within the nature of God, a coming together of a plurality in 
  union. 
   
  God is a Spirit (Jn 4:24) so 
  there is no way that this would be the same concept Bill.  Sure the 
  Godhead are One and united
  in Spirit.
   
  And so, since you suggested that if Christ be 
  fully God and fully human there must be a schism, I was just wondering 
  about the schism you have with your man. Why instead of schism aren't you 
  united? 
   
  In marriage between humans it 
  is "one flesh" Bill
   
  There would only be a schism between the two 
  natures of Christ if there were disunity between the two. 
  
  The person of Christ had no disunity; hence 
  no schism.  Bill
   
  There would have been disunity 
  "big time" if he had a human nature - just like us and was in fact wholly 
  God ATST; schizophrenic
  would be the right term.  
  Also "Flesh and blood DO NOT inherit God's Kingdom" Bill so what would be 
  the purpose??

  Dean,
  I think this is where "theology" gets 
  itself tied in knots. This is what JD has been accusing me of for 
  so long.
  How ironic that his mentor Bill 
  would write something like this.  I think Lance just repeated 
  it to qualify something.  
  So their Jesus 
  must have a schism in his personality (or nature).  What 
  about his saying to Philip "If you have 
  seen me you have seen the Father"  We know he wasn't 
  speaking of his physical body here; so does God 
  The Father also have a schismatic 
  personality.

  How ironic that his mentor Bill would write

Being human is being "made a little lower than the 
angels"  I does not of necessity have to include a
"fallen human nature" which is what is implied when one 
says that His humanity was not divine.  How
one can take such a stand on Jesus being God and ATST 
say his humanity was not divine is beyond
me in light of what His Own Word says about being 
"double souled" - unless what is meant by
"humanity" is the physical body without the 
soul.

  Why get all over him JD when you are doing the exact 
  same thing here and now.
   
  When we have our   trist over the Gentiles in Romans 
  2,  you and she both insist that these Gentiles must be regenerated 
  (saved - born again) because an unsaved Gentile cannot do by nature the things 
  of the law unless that "nature" be the "new nature" spoken of elswhere.  
  
   
  Wrong.  Unless they are regenerated God's Law 
  will not be written on their hearts.  Big difference.
  Unregenerated ppl can do a lot of things that look 
  good but their motives are all wrong and they are at
  enmity with God and His Law.  Anyone who is 
  doing by nature the things written in God's Law has got to
  have a new nature.
   
  You write  -  Why don't you let her speak for 
  herself rather than trying to speak for her?   
  And I am wondering why you do not go and do likewise.  
   
  I'm glad he doesn't do likewise - at times he appears 
  to be the only sane voice ... and most 
  definitely
  the only one who takes the time and trouble to try 
  and understand what I am saying and to give a
  respectful and coherent response.
   
  Part of the confusion several of us have with both of you is bond to your 
  unwillingness to be clear and 
  consistent with what you actually believe.  I have lost count of the 
  rather important questions I have asked 
  you both, only to be ignored by Judy and watch you get busy doing 
  something else, only to return after 
  the questioning has grown cold and meaningless.  You will , no

FWIW, from my perspective, Judy believes none of these things.  In 
fact, she seems to believe that unregenerated man can choose to believe 
in Jesus Christ.  I have a different perspective that I would share 
with her if there were not so many other posts flying that take my time 
to read.  I believe that it takes a work of the Holy Spirit to draw 
men and cause them to believe.
 
My belief is probably closer to yours than you 
think. I do not believe in the
"total depravity" taught by Calvinists and I do 
believe that noone can come
to or believe in Christ unless they are drawn by 
the Father and I understand
this to happen as the Word of God is preached under 
the anointing of the
Holy Spirit who convicts the world of sin, 
righteousness, and judgment.
(John 16:8).  So yes, I do believe the 
unregenerate can make the choice to
believe.
 
I tend to agree with the perspective that man is regenerated at the 
point just before believing because Jesus said that unless one is born 
again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.  How can an unregenerated 
man believe in that which he cannot see?
 
I believed on and received Jesus at a Street 
Preacher Rally before I 
understood there was a 
whole Kingdom that came with Him.  Thank you for
periodically giving your assessment DM.  It's 
encouraging to know that
not everyone reads and builds straw men to 
challenge what I write.
 
In any case, I'm sure Judy believes that unregenerated men can decide 
to stop doing something that they have been told is wrong.  
Unregenerated man also can decide to do something good, like give money 
to the poor, etc.  I do not think Judy would say that Christ 
stopped being God.  This is a straw man argument.  Why don't 
you let her speak for herself rather than trying to speak for her?

  just picking around the edges of other's comments concerning 'who 
  Jesus is'. JUST WHICH JESUS DO YOU SPEAK OF WHEN

  cd: I believe that Jesus Christ of 
  Nazareth is the son of God who came to earth to first teach us a more 
  correct way (truth) and then to die on a tree for the sins of the 
  whole world to pay God redemption price for mankind. He was divine in 
  words, nature, and character. He was God who gave up dwelling as a 
  spirit to take on a lower form in order to die as a spirit cannot die 
  but the flesh can. After death He still exists in the form of a 
  body but not one of flesh (corruption) as the price paid forever 
  marked him also-to I believe towards his eternal glory as we will view 
  those marks in his body. I don't believe it to be possible that God 
  would cease to exist in his spirit nature so while he was in earthly 
  form He had to also exist in heavenly form. This mediator (go between 
  God and man)must exist in both forms in order to relate one to the 
  other. In other words Christ knows what we are capable in doing and 
  what we are capable of overcoming-therefore there will be no excuse.I 
  hope this helps y ou understand my beliefs

I think we've hit the slippery slope here.  Ppl

lofty words of man's wisdom to talk their way out of it 
all.  However, just one sin can damn the soul because
sin is active and always bearing it's own fruit (ie: 
lust leads to more lust) and the wages of sin is death. Ppl who
claim to know Jesus and walk in darkness lie and do not

1.  You believe that unregenerated man cannot do what is right.  
You have stated that many times in the past.   I was just hoping 
that you good explain how that can be true with the example of Nineveh 
hanging over this theological conclusion.
 
2.  Secondly,  you believe that Christ stopped being God in spite

Ask me a question, Judy, about my beliefs and I will be glad to answer it

Death reigned from Adam to Moses and it reigned over 
Nineveh in Jonah's day.. So obviously
the wages of sin is death with or without a written 
Law.  Jonah called on these people to repent
and they did do that in sackcloth and ashes...  
even without theological permission.

him to be as the scripture reveals.
 
cd: Judy - see scripture revealing more of Christ 
also.
Lance and Baxter's "dancing around" theory has some very good 
points/teachings if one looks past the undertones of Augustness - which 
Calvin popularized to the protestant world (notice Blaine and Dave I said 
protestant world which Armenians - I my opinion-aren't a part of as the 
doctrines are separate/differant.). 
 
Thanks for this Dean but I don't see the 
relevance of this "so called" divine procession and I can't see an 
"eternal"
son in scripture.  He did not have two 
births and was not a creation of the Father at the 
beginning.
 
The point I am hoping to make is that Christ was more than 
a man while on earth. If a king took off his royal clothing and put on rags 
and emptied himself of most of his wealth and went out into the cold so as 
to experience what the common man experienced he would still be a King only 
one in rags. This king would know he was still a king-as Christ identified 
himself as such - He knew that He was more than a man and considered himself 
equal with God-His covering didn't make up his identity- rather who He was 
made that identity foremost.  He remember a Glory that was shared with 
the Fathers before the world began - How can any man hold a memory of that 
magnitude and still be just a man?
 
Well to everything there is a season and a 
time for every purpose under heaven. When he was born in that 
manger
in Bethlehem it was in human form - a 
little lower than the angels, even though we do have the prophetic 
voices
telling us that he would be so much 
more.  He is now our Prophet, Priest, and King.
 
Job asked God for a Mediator as a go between God and man - God 
honored that request and sent down a Mediator who could experience both 
sides of the issue. 
 
I believe Job was speaking prophetically 
see (Job 19:25) where he says "I know that my redeemer lives and that he 
shall stand at the latter day upon the earth"
 
Christ by walking in the form of man with the temptations of a 
man - due to the flesh- Yet was also able to relate with God's side of the 
issue in his divinness. Hope this helps and know that this is my 
understanding-if anything can be added to help my understanding please do 
so-Thank you.
 
 
  It is after his death (as a 
man)
burial and resurrection that God the Father exalted 
Him and gave Him a Name above every Name so that at
the name of Jesus every knee should bow and every 
tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of
God the Father.
cd: I see God as honoring Christ for the work on the cross-but 
knees bowed to him here while on earth also-The soldiers fell backwards to 
their knees in the garden when Christ said "I am" and many others bowed 
before Him which was allowed as He was God in the flesh.Remenber He 
identified himself as the great "I am". This is identifying himself as 
God.Yes he was made in the flesh a little lower than the Angles but still 
commanded those same angles as He could have called 12 legions to His 
defense-in the wilderness of temptation these Angels came and 
served/ministered to him in the form of servants. No Angel ever allowed a 
man to bow before them-Yet Christ allowed this to be so.He was therefore 
greater than the Angels and hence much more than the common 
man.

I think I know where you are going with this, 
David. I will of course agree that Jesus was exalted after his 
death and resurrection, and you will say that this somehow corroborates 
Judy's view that Jesus was not God all the while he was on earth (at least, 
I think this is what she has implied). Do you agree with her on that, then? 
Yes/No. As for his exaltation, my answer is that it had to do with his 
position; it was not a change in nature.

I'm puzzled by your _expression_, Judy 'what 
about Jesus made Him divine'. It is not as if he were a man to whom 
a special endowment were added or superimposed, 'making' him God. 
He is divine because he is God the Son who has existed from 
eternity, of one nature with the Father and Spirit, come AS A 
human being. Your question is like asking what makes God God. He ain't 
Clark Kent, Judy who needs only to remove his robe thus revealing his

Depends what you are calling "his diety"  If 
it is the glory he had with the Father since the world began
then yes he emptied himself leaving that behind 
when he took upon himself a body of flesh.  The difference
between him and other humans indwelt by the Spirit 
is the measure (ie he was given the Spirit without measure)
