"..God, by his providence, curbs the perverseness of nature,
preventing it from breaking forth into action, yet without rendering it inwardly
pure"
--J. Calvin,
c.1531
Dean's a Momma's
boy--eh?
No arguments with that, Judy. Now let's see
what Dean thinks about his thoughts.

My mother always said "To err is human, to
forgive divine" so I am sure Dean has divine thoughts
I've seen his public forgiveness right on
TT
So that I know for sure what you mean to
convey, let me ask you: do you as a human have "divine
thoughts"?

divine thoughts.

If I understand you correctly, Dean,
you believe that Christ while walking this earth was fully
God. I DO TOO. And if I understand you correctly, you also believe
that Christ while on this earth was fully human. I DO
TOO.

Dean:I'd ask of you what I asked of
DM, namely, outline your own position regarding 'who Jesus is'
rather than just picking around the edges of other's comments
concerning 'who Jesus is'. 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.
