JUST WHICH JESUS DO YOU SPEAK OF WHEN SPing?    cd: I believe that Jesus Christ of Nazareth is the son of God who came to earth to first teach us a more correct way (truth) and then to die on a tree for the sins of the whole world to pay God redemption price for mankind. He was divine in words, nature, and character. He was God who gave up dwelling as a spirit to take on a lower form in order to die as a spirit cannot die but the flesh can. After death He still exists in the form of a body but not one of flesh (corruption) as the price paid forever marked him also-to I believe towards his eternal glory as we will view those marks in his body. I don't believe it to be possible that God would cease to exist in his spirit nature so while he was in earthly form He had to also exist in heavenly form. This mediator (go between God and man)must exist in both forms in order to relate one to the other. In other words Christ knows what we are capable in doing and what we are capable of overcoming-therefore there will be no excuse.I hope this helps y ou understand my beliefs Lance.   --- Original Message ----- From: Dean Moore To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: January 14, 2006 17:42 Subject: Re: Fw: [TruthTalk] love and trinity THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST IS NOT DIVINE       ----- Original Message ----- From: Lance Muir To: TruthTalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: 1/14/2006 10:07:54 AM Subject: Re: Fw: [TruthTalk] love and trinity THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST IS NOT DIVINE Divine = God     cd: Lance Webster puts it this way-Note that Christ fits many of the below definitions.   DIVINE, a.
