Reflections: March 7, 2010

This week's Reflection by Gary Keith, Executive & Teaching Pastor
Wii Believe
 
Wii Believe...in Jesus
 
To embrace the belief that Jesus was both fully God and fully man can cause a person to ask some interesting questions. For example, I had someone ask me, 'When did Jesus know that He was the Son of God? Did He know as a toddler? Or was when He was twelve and confounding the Jewish religious leaders? Or was it when He was baptized? Exactly when did Jesus know that He was the Son of God?'
 
Good question. That is just one of many we could ask when we really take time to consider the incarnation - God in the flesh. What are your questions about this subject? Which part of Jesus is it more difficult for you to understand - His humanity or His deity? Or is it the one nature combination of Jesus as human and divine?
 
When all of this is considered, what does it take to actually put your belief in this Biblical truth of the incarnation?
