Bible Answer: Hi, NADI... Welcome to the forum! The doctrines of the Trinity and the Incarnation are difficult to understand. We will never comprehend them fully, but we can at least apprehend what God has revealed to us. Here is a good thumbnail reference for the doctrine of the Trinity: http://www.theopedia.com/Trinity Jesus Christ is, indeed, God. He is the person of the Son. The important thing to remember about the doctrine of the incarnation are the following four points: Jesus is one person, with two natures, fully human, and fully divine. The early church expressed the doctrine quite well in the Chalcedonian Creed: "We, then, following the holy Fathers, all with one consent, teach men to confess one and the same Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, the same perfect in Godhead and also perfect in manhood; truly God and truly man, of a reasonable soul and body; consubstantial with us according to the manhood; in all things like unto us, without sin; begotten before all ages of the Father according to the Godhead, and in these latter days, for us and for our salvation, born of the virgin Mary, the mother of God, according to the manhood; one and the same Christ, Son, Lord, Only-begotten, to be acknowledged in two natures, inconfusedly, unchangeably, indivisibly, inseparably; the distinction of natures being by no means taken away by the union, but rather the property of each nature being preserved, and concurring in one Person and one Subsistence, not parted or divided into two persons, but one and the same Son, and only begotten, God the Word, the Lord Jesus Christ, as the prophets from the beginning have declared concerning him, and the Lord Jesus Christ Himself taught us, and the Creed of the holy Fathers has handed down to us." In Him, Doc |
