POLL: Does the "MAN" Jesus Christ still exist?
I have noticed something on the oneness forums that I never realize SO MANY believe. Jesus is not longer a HUMAN BEING at the same time He is God. So let's doa poll and chat more about it!

Re: POLL: Does the "MAN" Jesus Christ still exist
Jesus today is the exact same thing that he was after the resurrection.
Act 1:11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

Amen. But does that include humanity?

Re: POLL: Does the "MAN" Jesus Christ still exist
Jesus is not a thing. Jesus is a Person. That verse explains Jesus is the same Person He has always been. He is Eternal
I answered 1) on the poll but I want to add I prefer the wording to refer to Jesus not merely as an immortal Human being but a glorified human being, having been changed. He is still Human in nature.
That change includes both His human body and a change to our sin nature when we are changed too

Excuse me, I too do not believe that Jesus is a THING, but my mind was blank.

Re: POLL: Does the "MAN" Jesus Christ still exist
Jesus indeed is a person. But what I mean about humanity is that He was made an immortal MAN, which is not GOD. Humanity is distinct from God. He was and is eternally God, but He manifested as a human being for salvation. I propose His humanity in that sense is still intact. It was the humanity that we would have seen with Adam had Adam not died due to sin and lived forever.

Re: POLL: Does the "MAN" Jesus Christ still exist
Paul said that THERE IS (present tense) one mediator... the MAN Christ Jesus as mediator for us, ever living to make intercession. He still makes intercession. Some cannot conceive how HE STILL makes intercession for us. It always amazed me why people would have an issue with that.
1 Timothy 2:5 KJV For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Re: POLL: Does the "MAN" Jesus Christ still exist
Hebrews 7:22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
Hebrews 7:23 And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
Hebrews 7:24 But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
Hebrews 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
