NASB | Philippians 2:7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Philippians 2:7 but emptied Himself [without renouncing or diminishing His deity, but only temporarily giving up the outward expression of divine equality and His rightful dignity] by assuming the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men [He became completely human but was without sin, being fully God and fully man]. |
Subject: Could Jesus like Adam have sinned? |
Bible Note: Greetings; You say that God the Father can’t be tempted; is that suggesting then that the first person of the Trinity is not able to be tempted but the other two members of the Trinity can be, since you singled out only God the Father? I would imagine that you are using the following verse as your hypothesis but there isn’t any specific mention of any of the personalities of the Godhead? James 1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: Let’s not forget what follows that verse, if that’s the one you are using? James 1:14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Where does that place Jesus in “your opinion” with the lust angle with relationship to temptation? CDBJ |
