Reflection On My Final Reflection
MY FINAL REFLECTION
TASHA PARKER
COLORADO CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY In deal with the Two Natures of Christ s
Person, I have found that there are a lot of people past and present that still have
some sort of an issue with the subject of God and Jesus Christ being one in the same.
According to McGrath, Irenaeus of Lyons on the Trinity that God the Father is,
uncreated, who is uncontained, invisible, one God, creator of the universe.
(McGrath, p. 157). And according to scripture, I and the Father are one John 10:30
KJV. And there are many, many more scriptures that I will quote as we go along.
Now I understand the argument of not fully understanding how can God who is
completely divine and not of this world, be the Son of God. And Jesus Christ who is
the son of God, that was born of a woman (I left out the virgin because of another
argument) conceived by the Holy Ghost. Walked among us, grew up, ate, lived in
this land as we have, yet was without sin, holy, powerful, and God in the flesh.
Okay, I can certainly see why the question came about. So, let me take a swing at
the discussion at hand. The Bible is a Prophetic Book, it is filled with divine
language, definitions, and mysteries. So, to be able to understand and answer
many of the questions of this book, one must have a spiritual discernment.
According to scripture, Which things also we speak, not in the words which man s
wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things
with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth, not the things of the Spirit of God:
for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are
spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is
judged by no man . 1 Corinthians 2:13 15 (KJV). So, then now let me also point
out that being saved,or a believer does not mean the same thing as having a spirit
of discernment. No, not at all, for this is a gift that one must receive from God the
father. Again, scripture says, Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above,
and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither
shadow of turning , James 1:17 KJV. I could go on all day about the scriptures but I
will add in this
