I understand that we might have differences in the details of our 
Christology.  We also have differences in how we understand one another's 
Christology because I do believe that Jesus is a unique incanational being. 
If it is ok with you, I would rather not go down these rabbit trails right 
now.  Let's get back to the issue of speaking infallibly.

If I declare, "Jesus Christ is the Messiah!" is this an infallible statement 
or not?  Is the statement without error?  Is not this statement an 
infallible declaration of truth?

Most rational beliefs are taken without proof.  They are called assumptions 
in logic.  You and I understand faith completely differently.  Faith is not 
irrational.  This will have to be discussed in another thread.  Let's talk 
about infallibility and whether any of us can speak infallibly.  Ok?

Peace be with you.
