Is Jesus the God-Man?
God is Spirit (John 4:24) and has commanded that innocent blood be shed upon the altar for the remission of sin (Leviticus 17:11; Hebrews 9:22) and there is no one innocent or good but God Himself (Romans 3:23; Isaiah 53:6; Mark 10:18); therefore, God ordained the Gospel as the battle strategy He would use “to destroy the works of the Devil” (1 John 3:8b) and this strategy was ordained “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:9-10).
God, with selfless love, demonstrated His intent to enter Time in a body of flesh as early as Genesis 3:15 and 3:21 and 4000-years later God entered Time in flesh through the virgin womb (Genesis 3:15; Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18-23) to circumvent the sin-nature corrupting the human genome subsequent to Adam’s rejection of God’s sovereignty in Eden (Romans 5:12).
Jesus walked without sin before God and man; Jesus obeyed the Law of God in perfection making Himself the only acceptable blood atonement for your sin (Matthew 26:28; John 14:6; John 3:16-18) then Jesus walked to the horrors of a Roman Crucifixion, shed His innocent blood upon the sands of Golgotha and with the words “It is finished” (John 19:30) Jesus Christ successfully reconciled sinful man with God the Father for anyone willing to believe with a sincere heart that Jesus is Lord who died to pay their sin-debt and receive Jesus as Lord and Savior over their life, forever (John 3:16). God the Father then, by Covenant promise, implants the Holy Spirit within the faithful who believe in Jesus (John 14:16) and the Holy Spirit guarantees this Covenant relationship, forever (Ephesians 1:13-14). Yes, Jesus is the ONLY God-Man.
22 Jews demand signs and Greeks search for wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.… 1 Corinthians 1:22-24 (Berean Study Bible)
