Jesus was also Man, and he was not just putting on a make-believe Sunday-school skit when he fell in suffering and anguish in the Garden of Gethsemane, praying with cries that the cup of suffering be allowed to pass Him by. That is temptation --- good and hard.

When He in the end said "Not My will, but Thine be done," he showed that He could have done differently, but He brought Himself into obedience to His Father's will.

Something to ponder deeply and at length. Easy? I think not.

Yes living in this mud-caked flesh is not for the faint of heart.

What are we arguing about exactly?
