Hello saint-george, Even a basic understanding of scripture will reveal that Jesus did not "give up His diety". Jesus was and is God. He has always been and will always be God. In the incarnation, Jesus did not give up His diety. He continued to be God. What He did, was to give up His "glory" for a time. If you do a basic study of Christ incarnate, you will see that the scriptures affirm that He continued to posses all of the attributes of God. The scriptures declare His full diety, even during the time on earth as a man. some examples to get you started: Eternality: John 8:58 58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was born, I am. ASV (see also John 17:5 Omnipresence: Matt 28:20 20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. ASV (See also Matt 18: 20) Omniscience: John 4:29 29 Come, see a man, who told me all things that (ever) I did: can this be the Christ? ASV (see Matt 16:21, Luke 6:8, Luke 11:17) Omnipotence: Matt 28:18 18 And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, All authority hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth. ASV (also see Mark 5:11-15, John 11:38-44). Hope this helps, Jeff |
