Subject: WAS JESUS GOD ON EARTH TOO OR JUSTMAN |
Bible Note: Hank and Lionstrong (and anyone else for this matter), I am not implying or even inferring that God slept ever at anytime; I said He rested. In the note to which I was replying, the author said that Jesus was so much of a man that He was so tired that He slept through a raging storm. I am merely saying that He was resting [the scripture says He was asleep] as it was not time for Him to move. I have yet to come across any scripture which says Jesus slept because He was tired, ate because He was hungry, or drank because He was thirsty. I truly believe that He was not even sleep on the boat; He more than likely was meditating and the disciples perceived Him to be sleep because "He was on a pillow" (and probably with his eyes closed). Likewise, I believe that He overcame the NEEDS of the flesh when He overcame the temptations of Satan. As you may recall, Satan appealed to His hunger (turn the stones to bread and eat), to His eyes (all that You see will be Yours), and to His pride (jump and the angels will catch You lest You should dash Your foot upon a stone). In each instance, Jesus rebuked him with the Word. Every little thing Jesus did had a purpose behind it for He is "about His Father's business." |
