Quote:It never occurred to me that Jesus was not always the Son of God, as the Second Person of the Godhead....but then I got to thinking (that is usually trouble!) that His flesh has not always been, and I wondered if that is where the rub comes in...
Quote:Yes, I believe Jesus is eternal, but His flesh had a beginning, and it began with Mary. Did it not? His flesh was created, was it not? After He ascended into heaven, He states He is not flesh and blood, but flesh and bone....as flesh and blood cannot inherit heaven. So what are your thoughts regarding these two passages.
Quote:Yeah, but that is Roman Catholic, is it not? And they would like Him to be eternally begotten, because then Mary wouuld have had to have been around eternally too. I do not find eternally begotten in the Scriptures. I don't believe the Second Person of the Trinity, God's Son was made...but I am just not seeing that His flesh was not made. Wow...this is difficult.
Quote:Okay...I believe that too, totally. What I was getting at about the Mormon understanding, is they believe that God, while also being a Spirit, also has a human body in heaven. That He is a man, with arms and legs, beard and such. It is almost like they took our conversation further...or not.... do you see what I mean?
