“Mary was the most fortunate virgin to be blessed with being used to HELP bring forth the body. She did not remain a virgin after the birth of the Christ child (welding goggles on). She did NOT create more of God. That’s not possible.

The part she helped bring forth suffered and died. God is a Spirit, and cannot die.”

Does this mean that you don’t believe that Christ was both human and divine? Part of him died? Heresy.

God died on the cross for our sins. Remember we are talking about the Trinity. You cannot separate the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are one.

**Does this mean that you don’t believe that Christ was both human and divine? Part of him died? Heresy.**

The scriptures refer to the Christ as the ‘Son of God’, but never ‘God the Son’. There is a dynamic, divine reason for that. But, we’re heading off thread here, so I’ll be brief.

In scripture, we find that Jesus Christ had a soul, that was put into a perishable body, with the Father (Spirit; John 4:24) in him doing “the works” (John 14:10), the miracles, the giving of divine instruction.

“This Jesus hath God raised up...” Acts 2:32
Why create confusion with ‘persons of God’?
What is so bad about just reading it like it is written, for example in Acts 10:38,39,40.
“How God” (hmm..which person?) “anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost” (the so called ‘third person’) “AND with power” (power? uh..now which person is that?). “..whom they slew and hanged on a tree. Him God” (which person or persons) “raised up the third day”.
