Judy -- my point is this: if you reject the notion that Jesus Christ and God are the same, then you believe that Jesus the man saved mankind ----------------- man saving man. An impossibility. Perhaps Bill could make my point clearer or Lance or Gary. ....

Especially in view of the foregoing. To argue that at some point in time, Jesus Christ became the Son of God is to preach the doctrine of Adoption. You have man saving man instead of God saving man -- and that bothers me. JdHow can you call it "man saving man" when it is what God ordained from the foundation of the world? Jesus is called many things in scripture including "the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world"I don't believe this (man saving man) ..... you do if you believe that he was not God in the flesh. jdThis man saving man idea is a figment of your own imagination JD. If God could have redeemedmankind as God then Jesus would never have had to be born of the woman and learn obedienceby suffering. It could have all been done from heaven.
