Re: [TruthTalk] Was Jesus of God's Nature?

[Dean Moore]

cd: I have combined both responses Bill as I believe they are the same and need the same answer. A few days ago you claimed that we could not hear your statement that Christ did not sin-well I heard you now you hear this. We..believe..Christ .. Came..In ..The .. Flesh..But.. WE.. Don't.. Think.. He.. was..As.. Weak..As..Common..Man.The below words only confuse the issue.Yes Christ was of Abraham/David and He had blood just as we do-but His flesh wasn't weak as He kept it strong. If it was weak show me one biblical account where it was weak-and we will discuss that but to keep repeating yourself isn't getting us anywhere?You say there was no difference we say there was-prove it.Think about it Christ didn't sin? Thanks bro.     ----- Original Message ----- From: Taylor   His death was the victory not His life.   Why then all the fuss about his human nature? Would it have mattered if he had sinned while living in the flesh? Of course it would. The Christ of Scripture is the whole package, brother: his life, death, and resurrection -- not just a slab of meat hanging on a tree. May I suggest that you purchase and read Gustaf Aulen's Christus Victor? The tyrants were plural, Dean: sin, death, and the devil. Leave one of them out and Christ is not the Victor you imagine.   Bill   ----- Original Message --- If Jesus was not of the first Adam, he was not his descendant and, therefore, was not qualified to bear his name. You and yours are way to American in this regard: you have no respect for heritage, lineage, kinship, family ties. To know the Jesus of Scripture, you need know him as he was in his culture, Dean -- not yours.
