If you walked the earth with Jesus, you'd get to know Him as a man. He'd teach. He'd laugh. He'd eat. He'd use the restroom. He'd sleep. He'd rest. He'd pray to and speak to His Heavenly Father. He'd worship His Heavenly Father. He'd fast. He'd cry. He'd sweat. He'd bleed. You'd truly know Him as a man. (2) However... at times you'd feel something otherworldly emanating from deep within Him. Something emanating from the very core of His being. Something powerful. Something that has authority over all creation. Something that speaks to the winds... bringing them into obedience. Something that raises the dead and heals all manner of sickness. Something indescribable. You'd sense GOD Himself at the core of Christ's own person. You'd realize that this man is far more than a mere man. He is also... God.

Keep in mind...God did not reside in Christ as a mere vehicle. God resided in and permeated Christ's very being. A Oneness so complete, so majestic, so inseparable, and so divine that in Christ it can be said that God became a man... and that this very same man was also God.

(3) No other religion elevates Christ to such an infinite height of majesty and honor. No other religion expresses Christ's true person to such an infinite degree. Most religions make Christ a mere prophet. No... Christ was not just a prophet. (4) Christ was the human tabernacle of God Himself. To deny this imperils the soul... and reduces Christ to being either a lunatic or a liar.

All authority and power has been delivered to Christ Jesus. He will judge Krishna. He will judge Buddha. He will judge Mohammed. He will judge Nanak. He will judge the followers of every false prophet and madman. He will judge all men in accordance to the Father's will as it relates to the Gospel. Through Him, the Father will judge. Because they are one.

(1) Right. For procreation: to have a lineage in which to be born, and to have sons and
daughters with Him. And yes, Jesus is the tabernacle prophesied in the Old Testament.

(2) Yes, God was "...in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself...". However, it is
"...the MAN Christ Jesus..." who will judge all things. It is God's will that MAN operate in
the same capacity as the Son.
(3) God doesn't need to be "elevated". "...God has made that same Jesus, whom you
have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
(4) Was the BODY the tabernacle of God?

Was God manifest IN the flesh, or AS the flesh?
