dm: I beg to differ with you here. The Scriptures teach that he had the same flesh as the rest of us, being born of the seed of David and the seed of Abraham. jt: He came in the "likeness" of man and when he returns hopefully he will find us in "his likeness or image" This does not say that he is us or that we are him. dm I've already posted all the Scriptures for you, but you just ignore them jt: I didn't ignore them, I read them but believe you are reading into the text something that is not there. dm: just like you ignore the simple calendar posts that lets us know that there was a full moon when the Lord was in the garden. jt: If it's so simple why do you not explain it in a simple way? My Bible says that Passover was 13th thru 14th of Nisan and Bible notes say that Nisan could be March or April. So which of those two months was it in 33AD? In 2004 my calender says full moon is 5th March and 6th April. Since Nisan is either of these months there will not be a full moon on 13th thru 14th of Nisan this year or am I missing something?

Why is it so hard for you to believe that Jesus could be related to Adam like the rest of us and yet be holy? jt: Because he would not have been born holy, he would have been part of the fallen human race and ineligible to be the perfect sacrifice. His blood would have the taint of sin. dm: This in no way detracts from the fact that he was the son of God. jt: You may not see it but yes it does because if he was born with a carnal nature like ours he would have needed someone to sacrifice for him - as Job (a righteous man) said "who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one. (Job 14:4). judyt ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
