Subject: Did John really baptise Jesus?? |
Bible Note: Dear Brad My statement "Jesus was totally, Man, and totally God." "This means Jesus had two diametrically opposed natures, the nature of man, (sin nature) and the Nature of God, Divine nature." Your statement Nestorianism is the error that Jesus is two distinct persons. Jesus was one person in two distinct and inseparable natures: divine and human. Please forgive the oversight, it was the only way I could think of wording "MY" thoughts, I assumed when I said natures, you would understand. Does this work for you? What we see in looking at Jesus, are two distinct natures in one person, human and divine, both of these natures becoming inseparable. Jesus will be fully God, and fully human for all eternity. In Jesus, His human and divine natures are not intermixed, or mingled, they are and have been united, but without losing either of these separate identities. Again in my words, Jesus had two distinct natures, but the sin nature of man was swallowed up in life, ie, the Divine nature of God. Just as it is with us, upon our becoming regenerated. The divine nature is always, and in all cases dominant over the sin nature of man, as it is now in our mortal bodies. Sorry for the misunderstanding, I'm not a theologian, and I may not put things into the correct order. Grace be unto you lightedsteps |
