    1john 4.1-6

    It a appears that the this problem began back in the Apostles time and is now prevalent today .

    The key is that they believe in a spiritual God of their truth , but deny the humanity of Christ in so doing this .

    Jesus is the Son of man and Son of God according to all scriptures . We must make it all important to realize that he has flesh and is come in the flesh . And still is .

    To make him a special deity is to trump the fact that he comes as a man in the flesh .

    God is not a man and does not have flesh . And never will because God never changes . He inhabits eternity. Before the world or heavens existed, and heaven and earth will pass away , but God remains the same as always .

    Dear Bon, You are correct that Jesus is the Son of God who took on flesh to be our

    Savior through His death and resurrection.

    However, He is indeed God who took on flesh. In this incarnation, His divine nature did not change. He took upon Himself the

    additional nature of man in order to be the perfect sacrifice for our sins.

    Jesus was made flesh and dwelt among men before offering Himself a sacrifice for the sins of the whole world and returning to heaven as the Creator God of the universe.

    Christ was definately flesh , just like us , he did however receive the Spirit of God without measure , something that had happened in the past to the prophets of old but not without measure . God cannot be tempted , we read that Christ was tempted just as we are , unlike us , Christ resisted to death . Even on the cross he was tempted as the Jews shouted to him ; if you are the son of God come down from the cross , save yourself . This would have been a temptation to anyone who could actually do that if they chose to ,

    considering the physical pain he will have been in .
