101 | Can we be truely sinless and not perfect | Heb 4:15 | RWC | 4758 | ||
Do I understand correctly from your comment that you believe that you are now in fact sinless but not yet perfect? If so, I am afraid that I would have to disagree with you. Anyone who is a member of God's family (and still in this world) will one day be made perfectly sinless. For now though, we are only "declared" perfectly sinless because of the blood of Jesus. The full reality of that declaration is a future event. I am struggling with your comment that the "flesh is imperfect." Certainly that is true, but it sounds as though you may be implying that the root of our sinfulness is found in our physical body (flesh) and that this is what Jesus had to overcome. Again, if that is what you mean, then I must disagree. Sin (sinfulness) is primarily a spiritual matter, not a physical problem. Death does mean separation. But that is a Biblical concept, not a Greek one or one based on the Greek language. As I understand it, there are two kinds of death: physical and spiritual. Physical death is the separation of the body (flesh) from the spirit (soul). Spiritual death is the separation of the spirit (soul) from God. The little girl that Jesus raised from the dead was very dead at least physically, and perhaps spiritually as well. Jesus made the same comment about Lazarus, and then proceeded to say that he (Lazarus) was actually dead. Did Jesus mean that the little girl was not separated from God but that Lazarus was? And regarding your comment about Jesus dying separated from the Father, I would have agreed with you up until a couple of weeks ago. But I recently read a very thought provoking article on a website. And now I have to re-think this. The link to this article is below. http://answers.org/Theology/forsaken.html |

104 | Is incomplete temptation real temptation | Heb 4:15 | RWC | 823 | ||
That is one of the common answers to this question, but it seems to me to fall short of really answering the question. If Jesus' divine nature prevents His human nature from being "tempted to the point of sin," then would it not also prevent Him from being truly tempted at all? | ||||||
105 | How can Jesus be tempted if He is God? | Heb 4:15 | RWC | 817 | ||
If Jesus is God, and God cannot be tempted, how could Jesus really be tempted? I think I have an answer, but I would like to hear from others. Ref. Mt. 4.1; Heb. 4.15; Jms. 1.13 |
