Sorry, but when reading dialogues such as this one . . . I often wonder when we’ll be discussing the angels on pin-heads issue

Christology is essential to our relationship with God, Q. If we don't agree on Who Christ is, then we have nothing in common but His name. The Apostolic Church teachs that He is two natures, one divine and one human, in one Person, fused, but not confused, inseparable, in perfect harmony.

I suppose it depends on the level of detail.

It is enough for me to know that Christ is:

1. GOD—PART OF THE TRINITY whatever else that means.
2. MY SAVIOR BY VIRTUE OF HIS VOLUNTARILY SHED BLOOD.
3. CREATOR of all that is
4. Coming again to keep me close eternally.

I don’t think of a lot of elaborate details that are essential for me to focus on or even keep in mind in this time/space dimension. They are certainly not essential for me to be able to fellowship with others who love Jesus.
