Dec 18, 2017 · Paul says in 1 Timothy 2:5, “There is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man” — the human — “Christ Jesus.”. So, in his divine nature, Christ was fully God. In his human nature, he was fully man. In his divine nature, he had all the essential attributes of God during his incarnation, and in his human nature ...
Nov 20, 2014 · There is no other mention in the gospels of Jesus being empowered by the Holy Spirit. The reason for this is that it seems He did most of His miracles by His own inherent divine power, and not by the power of the Holy Spirit. For example, when two blind men told Jesus “we want our sight”, the Bible says He had compassion on them and touched ...
Jun 24, 2018 · Christ's lessor position as man does not diminish His authority or identity as God, but it did restrict His power. Jesus willingly assumed this position Paul says. Therefore, Christ used the power of God to perform miracles, and that power was given to Him by the Holy Spirit because Jesus had given up His own power to be born a man in obedience to the plan of God.

This restriction is part of the “self-emptying” of himself as described in Philippians 2:7. Note that this is a restriction of His use and not losing His divine nature as a human being. Jesus covered His glory and ...
Aug 20, 2019 · The answer to the problem of human and divine consciousness is not that the deity lay dormant or inactive in the person of Jesus, but that the infinite knowledge, power, and holiness of the divine nature of Jesus was communicated to the single Person in a way consistent with his mission, possibly under the superintendence of the Holy Spirit, who had overshadowed Jesus even at the moment of the ...

Jan 4, 2022 · Calming the storm is just one display of Jesus’ divine power (Mark 4:39).
