I now see why our discussion has been going nowhere. You are totally ignorant of the rock-bottom basics of the Christian Faith. You don't have a clue what is meant by the "Trinity," or the "Incarnation." It is therefore impossible to converse with you about them.
Arthur — remember that Moslems deny the Trinity as well...
We call that a 'cop out'...You obviously can't discuss it because you know nothing about it...You can't discuss your understanding of the Trinity or the divine nature of God because I have a different view??? Who you trying to kid???
Man is a trinity...
1Th_5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Humans (you) are made up of 3 parts...But yet you are one person...Any one of the three parts individually is still you...
Gen_1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
So what do you thunk??? Humans are made in the likeness of Jesus, or the Holy Spirit, or the Father??? Bible says we are made in the likeness of all three...We are made in the likeness of the Godhead...
Heb_1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his (God's) person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
The 'Glorified' Jesus is the image of God...Just as our body is the image of our person (body, soul, spirit)...
