The Man Who Is God
Since God's Spirit is not limited
by space or time, while Jesus walked on earth, he was also in heaven, and he
still filled the universe. The same God took the roles of Lord and servant,
Father and Son at the same time. Jesus is called the Son of God, yet he is
actually the manifestation of the Father in human form. Thus the Lord Jesus
said, "he who has seen me has seen the
Father" (John 14:9).
Although Jesus is God, he shared
in our humanity. He never committed sin, yet he did feel the lure of
temptation. He spoke with authority, yet he humbly served others. He performed
supernatural deeds, yet he also experienced hunger, thirst, weariness, and
sorrow.
