I do want to get this right. I remember you saying that He was only the "representative of God" while on this earth. Not God but His representative -- understanding that He was God before and after (I guess). Are you saying, below that He was, in fact, God on earth? I do not understand "[not] wholly God." When God manifested Himself in a burning bush or a pillar of fire, was He not wholly God in a different form?

Sorry about that JD, I must have thought for some reason DM or you were talking to me.
and incidentally you are misrepresenting me right here. I have never claimed that Jesus was not
God in the flesh. What I deny is that He was wholly God because before He took the body upon
himself He divested Himself of divine attributes. Please don't put words in my mouth. jt

Judy, why are you answering posted comments to David? I already know and have rejected what you believe about Christ not being God Incarnate. I had somehow missed DM's point.Jd

Judyt: My point is that he was not fully God in the flesh and neither was he fully manbecause he is constantly referred to as a "holy child" He was holy from birthMankind is not and this is why we so desperately need him and why he died for usHe is what He is and we need to be open to receive that revelation fromthe Lord rather than die for some creed that misrepresents Him for fear of heresy.The important thing is that we be conformed to His image before he returns for us.On Sat, 23 Jul 2005 08:34:46 -0400 [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:Absolutely?

JD wrote: > Don't be fooled. The scriptures plainly teach that > Jesus Christ was God and man. Do either of you think that being a Son of God is different than being God? Would not being a Son of God make him God just as being a Son of Man makes him man? Peace be with you.
