God sent a messenger Jesus Christ only for him to get crucified. Am i to assume he will help or not? It is the burden of irresponsibility the people have set upon themselves. The people are to self-indulged in their own entertainment they would rather look up to superman than God. But then again God has no emotion, he manufactured creation, power, energy and life.

2020-03-25 23:17:43 UTC  

But he won’t protect us

2020-03-25 23:21:37 UTC  

God is transcendental in nature.

2020-03-25 23:22:13 UTC  

God gives us the tools to protect ourselves

2020-03-25 23:22:49 UTC  

But Divine intervention is something that happens from time to time

2020-03-25 23:23:21 UTC  

```Genesis 15:1
[1]Now when these things were done, the word of the Lord came to Abram by a vision, saying: Fear not, Abram, I am thy protector, and thy reward exceeding great.```

2020-03-25 23:23:42 UTC  

```Psalms 3:3
[3]But thou, O Lord, art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.```

2020-03-25 23:24:04 UTC  

To deny God as a protector is totally anti biblical

2020-03-25 23:24:27 UTC  

The only way God is able to represent himself in our universe is through the "Holy Spirit" because he is transcendental in nature.

2020-03-25 23:25:06 UTC  

No

2020-03-25 23:25:15 UTC  

The holy sprit is most common though

2020-03-25 23:25:23 UTC  

But what about Jesus

2020-03-25 23:25:34 UTC  

He was here once

2020-03-25 23:25:34 UTC  

The Holy Spirit guided the Son

2020-03-25 23:25:37 UTC  

He utilizes this holy spirit form to help those in desperate need or who are misguided.

2020-03-25 23:25:46 UTC  

The Son walked here with us.

2020-03-25 23:26:02 UTC  

The son is part of god as much as the holy sprit is

2020-03-25 23:26:19 UTC  

The Father as well is very active

2020-03-25 23:26:25 UTC  

Yes

2020-03-25 23:27:05 UTC  

Jesus is divine flesh right?

2020-03-25 23:27:22 UTC  

It's a hypostatic union

2020-03-25 23:27:43 UTC  

Fully man, fully God. The flesh is not God itself.

2020-03-25 23:28:00 UTC  

For the Son always existed

2020-03-25 23:31:58 UTC  

Jesus and Mary both received glorified bodies though

2020-03-25 23:41:23 UTC  

@Eoppafully man and fully god is a paradox.
Man is a distinct entity and even moreso god

2020-03-25 23:42:24 UTC  

Fully God would mean it would be literally impossible for jesus to be crucified as he would have eternal life

2020-03-25 23:55:36 UTC  

@MENELIK THE IMPENETRABLE that's entirely false. Jesus shares the divine essence, which is of course immutable, but when acting on the flesh you are not trying to move the divine act. That's why I said the flesh itself is not God.

2020-03-25 23:56:26 UTC  

His person, his essence is shared with God the Son.

2020-03-25 23:57:03 UTC  

Not the body.

2020-03-26 00:01:29 UTC  

Two natures, one person

2020-03-26 00:05:13 UTC  

So if their essence Is the same why did jesus cry out to god when he was being crucified?
He asked god " father why have you forsaken me"
If god the father and god then son shared the same essence then jesus would know that god will never depart from him

@Eoppa
So how can the desires of the flesh overcome the desires of the divine

2020-03-26 00:10:26 UTC  

The 'cry out' was actually a quote from Psalms that predicted Christ and proclaimed God, it wasn't the flesh overcoming anything. Anachronistically it was for the Jews to recognize he was the messiah.

2020-03-26 00:10:32 UTC  

```they have pierced my hands and feet , they have numbered all my bones```

2020-03-26 00:10:51 UTC  

It was said when you suffered.

2020-03-26 00:11:07 UTC  
2020-03-26 00:11:34 UTC  

Jesus had never sinned, never did any desire contradict.

2020-03-26 00:12:22 UTC  

I never said he sinned, my argument was :
If god and jesus share the same essence, then why would jesus cry out for help

2020-03-26 00:12:38 UTC  

If he knew god was with him, he would be at peace

2020-03-26 00:15:34 UTC  

Did you not read what I said

2020-03-26 00:16:04 UTC
