Bible Question: Did Jesus know he was God when he was here on earth? If he did, why would it have been so difficult for him to sacrifice himself? |
Bible Answer: Hello... with Jesus using truths such " I and the Father am one " and " If you know me you know the Father , and if you know the Father you know me " the answer must be yes . However , one of my favorites is when Jesus says to the "rich young man " why do you call me good; only the Father is good , he was actually revealing His true nature . That particular form of the word " good " in this case means morally and essentially perfect .Only God can fit this description . As for his tribulations , we must never forget that He was truly incarnate , fully human while he walked the earth in New Testament times . He loved his fellow man in a way we can only marvel at , while we attempt the same . Yet He always knew that the Fathers Will would be done on earth as it is in Heaven. I pray I have not made this question more cloudy , as it is a great wonder that God can be Trinity , and a great Blessing that one day we will understand that. Peace , rsrsd |
