Bible Question:
How much do you think Jesus did in secret? How, why, and when did He hide His Deity? Do you think that He is hiding His Deity in this very verse? From the heart, Ray |
Bible Answer: I don't think Jesus did anything in secret. He had nothing to hide. He certainly did not hide His Deity since He did not have it with Him. He laid aside his Glory (His Deity) to take on a body of flesh. I believe that every thing Jesus did on earth, He did as a sinless man in harmony with His Father (God). Remember that Old Testament prophets performed miracles, as did the Apostles both before and after the Resurrection and Ascension of our Saviour. |
