DIVINE=BUT HUMAN TOO



















DIVINE=BUT HUMAN TOO


Jesus was DIVINE=but he
Was also HUMAN=he had ALL
The traits and FEELINGS and temptations=
Of EACH one of us


But unlike us=he OVERCAME each
And every temptation that he had


“He gave strict orders that
NO ONE should know this


And said that she should =be given
SOMETHING to eat” Mark 5:43


ISN'T it remarkable that after
ALL the hubbub=that the FIRST
Thing that Jesus did AFTER RAISING
The girl from the dead


Was to make sure=she had
Something to eat=FULL of presence
Of mind=that Jesus was=KNOWING full well
What it was to be HUMAN TOO


He was down-to-earth=our Lord
AND Savior=He was not above
Anything=or any of us=yet we know
That he was DIVINE too


“For since the
CREATION of the world
GOD'S invisible qualities--------


His eternal power and DIVINE nature--------
have been clearly seen


Being understood
From what has been made
So that people
Are WITHOUT EXCUSE” Romans 1:20


“Through these-
He has given us
His very GREAT
And precious promises


So that through them
You may participate
In the DIVINE NATURE


Having escaped
The corruption of the world
CAUSED by evil desires” 1 Peter 1:4


Yes=we take great COMFORT
In this


Jesus KNOWS that we have to
Take CARE of the human side
Of our lives too


He KNOWS-
We NEED to eat=
Sleep=Take care of our cars=
And EVEN do laundry too


Jesus was DIVINE=but he had
A DUAL nature=he was HUMAN too


He=Jesus wants us to be=
PEOPLE OF FAITH=but he doesn't
EXPECT us to neglect our
Human needs


“You judge
By HUMAN STANDARDS


I pass judgment
On NO ONE” John 8:15


“Peter and the other apostles replied:
'We MUST obey God=rather=
Than human beings'” Acts 5:29


“You SHOW
That you are
A LETTER from Christ


The result
Of our ministry


Written NOT with ink
But with the SPIRIT
Of the LIVING GOD


Not on tablets of stone
But on the tablets
Of HUMAN HEARTS” 2 Corinthians 3:3


We NEED to EMULATE the life
Of our Jesus Christ=being AWARE
Of the human


But BEING people of faith=LIVING
With the DIVINE NATURE
Of Christ too


In the names of Jesus and HIS MOST LOVING FATHER
