Subject: WAS JESUS GOD ON EARTH TOO OR JUSTMAN |
Bible Note: The flesh is man's sinful nature, and as Jesus was in the flesh, he shared that nature. However, that is not to say that he sinned. As seen in Matthew, Mark, and Luke, he was tempted by Satan through the flesh but did not succumb to those temptations. I say he was not good because good is a relative term. One can be a good man, priest, or writer, yet that does not preclude one from being a sinner. Just because Jesus slept during the storm does not mean he was so much a man that he was tired; even God rested on the seventh day. His sleeping exemplifies the faith that one should have during times of tribulation. Instead of running around and panicking like everyone else on the boats, we are to take comfort in the Lord and move when and where as He tells us. Continue reading, but let us not read to have our convictions and beliefs edified but to find the truth in all that we seek. |
