Sproul holds, I am sure, the "classical" view of God: God is perfect and eternal and therefore can undergo no change in anything pertaining to his nature or character. Thus God never acquires new information or new knowledge, never changes his mind, and does not age, experience changes in "feeling" etc ... and thus is "impassible".
This view owes more to Plato and Aristotle than Scripture, imo.

Re: Apostolic But Not Believing Jesus is The Fathe
God has blood in ONE SENSE ONLY. The body in which he was incarnate had blood. I am sure you all agree. THE body was not deity nor was the blood in it. It was part of humanity alone.

ONE sense? ONLY? So the blood you drink for communion is blood in the same sense? Hemoglobin, corpuscles, etc.? What are you, RC?

Re: Apostolic But Not Believing Jesus is The Fathe
If people believe Jesus is God incarnate, what is the point of demanding everyone to say "God died"? If it's just an attempt to prove God was incarnate, then what is the point? We already believe that. Or is it jst to allow Roman Catholics to be considered brethren by allowing for their statements?

You don't like logic, do you.
