2 | was Jesus afraid? | 1 John 4:18 | Mommapbs | 85377 | ||
NO Jesus was not afraid. Throughout the Bible we are continually told "do not fear." To fear then would be sin, right? Jesus knew no sin. He was not afraid. Recall when Jesus rescued Peter from the waves He asked him, Why did you doubt?" (Mt 14:25-31) Fear is the absence of faith. Jesus knew who He was; the Son of God - He had the presence of the Father with Him - no, He was not afraid of the process of death . . . my opinion is that He did not want to experience the forsaking of God, but for the joy set before Him (our redemption, our reconcilation . . .) He did; He endured the cross! mommapbs |

3 | was Jesus afraid? | 1 John 4:18 | DAIRYLEADER5 | 85384 | ||
Just a note; Math.26;39 thru 42,. Mark 14;36,. luke 22;42 John 18;11,. Heb 12;2,. There was no human fear in Jesus, this I agree with, but there was Anxiety, because he was still in the flesh.Heb.12;2Looking into Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him... What was that joy?. In my oppion, God opened a window to the future to allow Jesus to look at the difference that his life would make for us and the world. Just a thought to think about. | ||||||

Greetings DairlyLeader5: You wrote, " God opened a window to the future to allow Jesus to look at the difference that his life would make for us and the world." Wouldn't Jesus already have KNOWN that? What kind of anxiety did Jesus have? Please support this statement. mommapbs |

5 | Did Jesus have anxiety? | 1 John 4:18 | Asis | 85405 | ||
Good evening mommapbs Anxiety is 1 a : painful or apprehensive uneasiness of mind usually over an impending or anticipated ill b : fearful concern or interest c : a cause of anxiety 2 : an abnormal and overwhelming sense of apprehension and fear often marked by physiological signs (as sweating, tension, and increased pulse), by doubt concerning the reality and nature of the threat, and by self-doubt about one's capacity to cope with it The thing about Jesus that separates Him from us is the way he dealt life. He was without sin not without feelings. He suffered every temptation we suffer, only He never gave in to any temptation. When the trials came He went to God. He didn't read a book or listen to a tape or ask a rabbi, He prayed to GOD. He prayed to the Father three times to take the cup from Him. He was so intense that He sweat blood. Luke 22:44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. [KJV] agonia: a struggle (properly the state), i.e. (figurative) anguish :- agony. But regardless how He felt about what He was going to face He WAS OBEDIENT. Obedient unto death even the death of the cross. The sin of Adam was rebellion, disobedience to God. Romans 5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. [KJV] Our restoration by Jesus was obedience to God. By His suffering He learned obedience. Hebrews 5:8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; [KJV] After asking three times He set His face toward the cross. The stuggle, agony, anguish over. Peace and determination replaced any other thought. HE TRUSTED IN THE LORD! How do we deal with the trials in life which cause us agony? Do we trust in the Lord? Jesus is our model, He has shown us Kingdom behavior. Cast all your cares upon Jesus because He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Trust in the LORD with ALL your heart; and lean not on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5). He will see you through just as He saw Jesus through. |

Greetings Asis - yes indeed there is a difference between the Lord's responses to His reality and ours - Your observation that He experienced the feelings without the sin is comforting, we DO have a Savior who understands all that we are feeling. Thanks. mommapbs PS: On another note, what was Jesus anxious for? Good to ponder over . . . |
