Subject: Is Jesus still a man or was a man? |
Bible Note: Santo, I think there are two questions within your question: 1) At present, Jesus is in heaven with his Father. Does he exist materially (with a body)? 2) If he does have a body, is his body human? I think I would say yes to the first question, definitely. The verses already quoted in the forum should be sufficient to convince most people. The second question may be a little trickier. Jesus was resurected with a new body that was described as being different (or better). I would say that he is fully human (without sin), and much more. In geek speak, human plus plus. You should buy your discussion group leader lunch. :) |
