May 25, 2020 · The other day I wondered, Did Jesus have a soul? Yes, Jesus had a human soul. He could not be truly God and truly human without a human soul. Otherwise, he would only have pretended to be human. Hebrews 4:15 says of Jesus: “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has similarly been tested ...
Jan 4, 2022 · Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have” (Luke 24:39). After spending forty days with His disciples, Jesus ascended bodily into heaven (Acts 1:9). Jesus is still human, and He has a human body in heaven right now.

That Jesus of Nazareth was truly and fully human was plain enough to those who saw and heard and touched and shared life with him (1 John 1:1). No one questioned his humanity during his ministry. What was not apparent at first, and revealed carefully and convincingly in his life and resurrection, was that he also was God.
For those on the left, his humanity is plain enough in history, and in the perceived nonsense of a man actually being God. Whats in question, or re-mythologized, is in what sense he is really divine. Was he really Gods son? But we Bible-believers have our own tendencies and troubles as well. Even among those of us who are quick and unashamed to con...
Throughout the Gospels, Jesus clearly displays human emotions. Here it begins to get a little more difficult for us. When Jesus heard the centurions words of faith, he marveled (Matthew 8:10). He says in Matthew 26:38 that his soul is very sorrowful, even to death. In John 11:3335, Jesus is deeply moved in his spirit and greatly troubled, and even ...
The mature and carefully formulated answer of church history is this: In addition to being fully divine, Jesus is fully human. His one person has both an infinite, divine mind and a finite, human mind. He can be said not to know things, as in Mark 13:32, because he is genuinely human and finite and human minds are not omniscient. And Jesus can be ...
Paradoxical as it is, the Scriptures plainly affirm that Jesus both knows all things as God and doesnt know all things as man. For the unique, two-natured, singular person of Christ, this is no contradiction, but a peculiar glory of the God-man.
Right now Jesus has shed the "body" ("container" for all you comet hail-bopp followers) and is composed 100% of spirit as he was before the incarnation. Right now Jesus does not have flesh, bones or blood, but is wholly a spirit being, as he was before incarnation. Jesus resurrected body is nothing like what our future resurrected body will be ...
Yes, Jesus had a human soul (CCC 470-475). Because “human nature was assumed, not absorbed,” in the mysterious union of the Incarnation, the Church was led over the course of centuries to confess the full reality of Christ’s human soul, with its operations of intellect and will, and of his human body (Catechism 470).
May 9, 2018 · Q. Does Jesus have a soul? A. Your question was raised in the early centuries of the Church. Christians at that time were trying to figure out more accurately the nature of the Incarnation — what it means to say that “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:14). In time, the Church gave a definitive answer: When God the Son became a Man, He took for himself a complete human ...

Dec 25, 2023 · What are the attributes of the Soul of Christ? First of Christ was fully man and as such Jesus had a soul that was 100% human. If his soul was not fully human, Jesus would not have been fully human! He has a soul only in virtue of his incarnation, that is to say, the body-soul composite that is Jesus’ concrete human nature has a soul.
