OK - I'm asking Bill, what husband, and what
schism?
Oh, I thought you were married. The bible says
that you and your husband (if you had one) were to become "one" flesh, in
other words the two of you in coming together would be united -- and not just
physically, I might add; it is the marriage "union" after all. The same is
true with God. The bible teaches that the Lord is "one" and it uses the same
word when saying this; hence there is a oneness or unity within the nature of
God, a coming together of a plurality in union.
God is a Spirit (Jn 4:24) so there
is no way that this would be the same concept Bill. Sure the Godhead are
One and united
in Spirit.
And so, since you suggested that if Christ be
fully God and fully human there must be a schism, I was just wondering about
the schism you have with your man. Why instead of schism aren't you united?
In marriage between humans it is
"one flesh" Bill
There would only be a schism between the two
natures of Christ if there were disunity between the two.
The person of Christ had no disunity; hence no
schism. Bill
There would have been disunity "big
time" if he had a human nature - just like us and was in fact wholly God ATST;
schizophrenic
would be the right term. Also
"Flesh and blood DO NOT inherit God's Kingdom" Bill so what would be the
purpose??
OK - I'm asking Bill, what husband, and what
schism?
And while you're at it, will you explain your
schism with your husband, too?
(If this needs clarification, just
ask)
Bill

Dean,
I think this is where "theology" gets itself
tied in knots. This is what JD has been accusing me of for so
long.
How ironic that his mentor Bill would
write something like this. I think Lance just repeated it to
qualify something.
So their Jesus
must have a schism in his personality (or nature). What about
his saying to Philip "If you have
seen me you
have seen the Father" We know he wasn't speaking of his physical
body here; so does God
The Father also have a schismatic
personality.
cd: Judy can you define your usage of
'schismatic'.
Well, yes and no, DH. I am
included in that circle of love in the way that Christ's
humanity is included in that relationship. But as the humanity of Christ is not divine,
neither am I divine.
cd: Lance at this point- How do you define
"Divine"?
