Look .. I spent 3 years studying the Word of GOD - nobody can tell me GOD's own son would be anything but the most excellent specimen of humankind ever born. He would have been tall and strong .. yet calm and determined .. passionate and sentimental .. all at the same time.

In Eph. 4:13 - "Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ."

While I realize that scripture probably speaks of spiritual stature, I cannot imagine aspiring to a short "fulness of Christ" - you see my dilemma ..??

You can argue that all you want - but I'm already settled with it .. and I'm done discussing it.

Then you disbelieve Isaiah 53:2: "He has no form or comeliness; and when we see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him."
