Jesus is both God and man. He experienced life as both - to deny either his humanity or his divinity is heresy.

Well, technically I am a heretic according to the RCC. Would you put me to death as recommended by Aquinas? :-) or :-(

Would you please cite instances where Jesus experienced life as God while He was still on earth?

Not just according to the RCC.
Most mainline christian churches share the same beliefs regarding the Holy Trinity and the human/divine natures of Christ.
These beliefs were passed down through the centuries.
I don’t know much about Aquinas, and as you know the Catholic Church is opposed to putting people to death.

“Would you please cite instances where Jesus experienced life as God while He was still on earth?”

Excellent examples already posted on the thread...read through it.
Jesus spelled it out for us and told us He was God.
Either He was who He said He was, or He was crazy.

But one example that stands out in my head because another poster discussed it with me would be the transiguration.
An excellent example Jesus experiencing both his divinity and humanity.
