There, in that statement lies your heresy.
Hi VP,
I agree with you that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully Man. However, only the Man nature was born and died; so only the man Nature can have a mother.
While I agree that man cannot fully explain the Trinity; we do our best. If you have a better way of explaining the Trinity than the graphics I presented -- please do share that with all of us.
But, that said, you tell me you are not dancing around the issue -- but, you are certainly digging a very deep hole to avoid answering these very simple questions. Either you believe what is written or you disagree with what is written. So, how difficult is it to choose one or the other -- and tell us why?
Was God born? If so, He is a created being and not God. The Bible tells us that God is eternal, preexisting. How does one who has never been born have a mother?
Did God die? If so, He is not God. The Bible tells us that God is eternal, preexisting. If God is preexisting, eternity to eternity -- how can He die?
Yet, the human nature of God the Son, whom we call Jesus was born and did die. God is LORD, the human nature of Jesus is Lord.
So, VP, please explain to me how God who was never born -- HAS A MOTHER.
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
TAKE YOUR PICK. WHICH FITS BEST FOR YOU?
OR, DO YOU HAVE A BETTER WAY TO ILLUSTRATE THE TRINITY?
