    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 7, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,439 views

    There is a growing belief in the Church that Jesus completely emptied Himself of His divinity in order to become human so that He could be the perfect sacrifice for all humanity, which is why He attributed all of His works and doctrines to the Father.

There is a growing belief in the Church that Jesus completely emptied Himself of His divinity and/or attributes in order to become human so that He could be the perfect ...read more

    God, But Man (Strange, But True!)

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Nov 11, 2019
     | 1,994 views

    Simply put, there is only one Jesus, but this Jesus has two natures: He is God and He is man. Paul explains this well as he points to Jesus’ human characteristics, like His death on a cross, while also asserting His divinity, saying that the very fullness of God dwells in Christ.

    The Son was both God and Man to restore His creation 1. Jesus really was a man a. Stepped out of heaven to be like us b. He was born just like us, lived like us, grew up like us c. Lived a humble lifestyle and pinched pennies d. He got tired like us i. Crowds followed him ...read more

    What Does "morality" Even Mean?

    Contributed by Ian Hyde on Nov 24, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,147 views

    How do we define morality in an increasingly relativistic, materialistic world?
