No blume, a person has a heart that pumps blood and supplies breath of life to the body so he can live. Consciousness is not the test for a person, else the man Jesus and the God Jesus are 2 different persons.

Even machines can keep a body "alive", with no person present.
Sorry, your words just don';t match the facts.

I think so many never really grasped oneness. They think they did, but it seems they didn't.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:

- The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
- Every sinner must repent of their sins.
- That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
- That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
- The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

AFF is the minority I'm sure. Internet forums are usually small vocal minorities

Re: Apostolic But Not Believing Jesus is The Fathe
Btw, the "different uses" stem from the English language as the word "God" means either "supreme Being" or as a personal name of that Supreme Being. The phrase "as God" means YHVH considered as the supreme being, the eternal Spirit (ie in reference to the divine nature). "As man" refers to YHVH in reference to his incarnation in human nature as a genuine human being.
It's pretty simple, actually: YHVH became human, and that human died. Since that human is YHVH, then YHVH died. The qualification "he died as man not as God" eliminates any need for wondering "where was God?" during the three days and nights in the tomb.
