Christians have made the claim that Jesus has 2 natures. One man nature, which he took on, and one divine nature which he always had. They claim as a man, he ate, slept and died etc.
They also claim as a man it would be normal for Jesus to say I have a God. Such as in:
John 20: 15-18:
15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. 16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master. 17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. 18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the LORD, and that he had spoken these things unto her.
Christians have come up with the weak response that this was the man nature of Jesus speaking. For argument sake we will take this response as correct. So we are able to conclude that:
1- Jesus has 2 natures, one divine one human
2- The man nature eats, sleeps, prays and has a God
3- The divine nature does not sleep, pray, or has a God
However so, it may come as a surprise to many people, but however so the supposed divine Jesus also said he has a God!
Revelations 3:12:
12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
So as you can see, the divine Jesus still says he has a God! This is not Jesus as man speaking anymore, but this is Jesus as divine speaking, so how can the divine Jesus say I have a God? This clearly proves that there is no such thing as a divine Jesus, and that Jesus is not God since he has a God, even when he is in his supposed divine state.
So I would really love to see a response from the Christians on this. Why does the divine Jesus say I have a God?
