Looking at the inconsistency in the answers, I conclude that no one has complete knowledge over Bible or Christianity. How can you try to answer my question if you are not sure.

Now stop fooling here and go study Bible, you need a teacher too, so go to someone who has good knowledge.

Half Knowledge leads to misery.

God the eternal Son became incarnate in Jesus Christ. Through Him all things were created, the character of God is revealed, the salvation of humanity is accomplished, and the world is judged. Forever truly God, He became also truly man, Jesus the Christ. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He lived and experienced temptation as a human being, but perfectly exemplified the righteousness and love of God. By His miracles He manifested God's power and was attested as God's promised Messiah. He suffered and died voluntarily on the cross for our sins and in our place, was raised from the dead, and ascended to minister in the heavenly sanctuary in our behalf. He will come again in glory for the final deliverance of His people and the restoration of all things. (John 1:1-3, 14; Col. 1:15-19; John 10:30; 14:9; Rom. 6:23; 2 Cor. 5:17-19; John 5:22; Luke 1:35; Phil. 2:5-11; Heb. 2:9-18; 1 Cor. 15:3, 4; Heb. 8:1, 2; John 14:1-3.)

The hypostatic union is the term used to describe how God the Son, Jesus Christ, took on a human nature, yet remained fully God at the same time. Jesus always had been God (John 8:58; 10:30), but at the incarnation Jesus took on human flesh - He became a human being (John 1:14). The addition of the human nature to the divine nature is Jesus, the God-man. This is the hypostatic union, Jesus Christ, one Person, fully God and fully man.



Jesus' two natures, human and divine, are inseparable. Jesus will forever be the God-man, fully God and fully human, two distinct natures in one Person. Jesus' humanity and divinity are not mixed, but are united without loss of separate identity. Jesus sometimes operated with the limitations of humanity (John 4:6; 19:28) and other times in the power of His deity (John 11:43; Matthew 14:18-21). In both, Jesus' actions were from His one Person. Jesus had two natures, but only one person or personality.



The doctrine of the hypostatic union is an attempt to explain how Jesus could be both God and man at the same time. It is ultimately, though, a doctrine that we are incapable of fully understanding. It is impossible for us to fully understand how God works. We, as finite human beings, should not expect to be able to comprehend an infinite God. Jesus is God’s Son in that He was conceived by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35). But that does not mean Jesus did not exist before He was conceived. Jesus always has existed (John 8:58; 10:30). When Jesus was conceived, He became a human being in addition to being God (John 1:1,14).



Jesus is both God and man. Jesus has always been God, but He did not become a human being until He was conceived in Mary. Jesus became a human being so that He could identify with us in our struggles (Hebrews 2:17) and, more importantly, so that He could die on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins (Philippians 2:5-11). In summary, the hypostatic union teaches that Jesus is both fully human and fully divine, that there is no mixture or dilution of either nature, and that He is one united Person, forever.

Jesus is the son of God made flesh. He was born a human and lived his live as a human up until the transfiguration at which point his divinity was revealed to him. Even at that point he was still a man and continued to be a man until his death. That is the main point of the religion that God would take human form and live as one of us to get a better undertanding of us. If he died on the cross but did not bleed or feel pain it just wouldn't mean nearly as much.

According to the bible...Jesus was God's son in the likeness of man. Not God. He was born of a woman...there for by all rights human but none-the-less believed to be the son of God. Upon his death and resurrection he became part of the trinity (3 in 1, the Father, the Son, and the holy ghost) I'm no bible scholar...Justa girl who payed attention in Sunday school class. (LOL) If that doesn't solve it for ya...go ask a preacher!!
Have a great day!

Jesus was God personified. And the reason he could bleed? Well Jesus was born as a human after all. to a Human woman. and his Father was God. So how is God and Jesus the same....God is all powerful..so take into consideration that God can not only be in Heaven...he can be on earth too. I dont have details and dont get nitpicky..youll just get more confused.

That is another of the many holes in the trinity myth. Simple logic like this is one of the best ways to see through these lies.

The Bible clearly reads in many places how God is greater than His son, Jesus. Jesus himself said it. The holy spirit isn't even a person. It is God's active force or powerof His will.

It is like the richest man in a small town. Though he is not everywhere, his power of his money and influence is felt all over town. It is sometimes almost a tangible thing. So is God's force of will or power.

Jesus was God's Son sent to die for all of mankind that we might have eternal life with Him. When He came to earth, He humbled Himself as a man and took on mankind's attributes. He didn't lose His Deity or Power (as He also performed miracles while He was here), but rather lived as everyone else. He did this so that others would come to Him and trust Him, like they would anyone else, and so that He would understand them. If He came hailing Himself as a King, then not many people would have cared to get to know Him. So just as you bleed, get hungry, etc., so did Jesus.

Read 2 John 2:7-11 and you will see that those who have excepted Christ have "both" (that means 2) the Father and the Son.

You need to read the bible - Jesus was God's word made flesh... all man, all God
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. James 1:5

Because He is also fully human as well. Christ is the God-man: fully God and fully man. He is human in every way we are. He hungered, bled, slept, and wept. He even drank wine with friends at Cana. He was thoroughly human. He took on our nature and attributes willingly, and submitted to them willingly. God, thus, is a man.
