Bible Note: Christ Jesus was sent into the world as God Who humbled Himself by becoming man. It was through His manhood in association with His Godhood that He brought about the redemption from the world, rose again from the dead and was seated at the right hand of God. All these phrases refer to the manward aspect of His Being. His Godhood could not die, nor therefore could He as God rise from the dead. In His Godhood He sat on His Father's throne (i.e. reigned jointly with the Father - God is Spirit, He does not actually sit in a throne except when revealing His majesty to men). In the manifeatation of His manhood He sat at the Father's right hand. In the mmanifestation of His Godhood He was One with God. Part of His task as the God-man is the subjection of evil, the defeat of death and the bringing in of the everlasting kingdom. As the God-man He must reign until this is accomplished. Once all is subdued He in His manhood will subject Himself to the Godhead,(including His own Godhood), at which point He along with the Father and the Holy Spirit will be all in all. |
