Fully human


Because God’s children are human beings – made of flesh and blood – the Son also became flesh and blood (Hebrews 2:14; NLT). 

Fully human,
Yet divine:
I am yours,
And you are mine.

Son of Man,
And Lord of lords:
You are mine,
And I am yours.

My beloved is mine and I am his (Song of Songs 2:16; NIV).


Jesus’ humanity:

The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature. So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin’s control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins (Romans 8:3; NLT).

While they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn (Luke 2:6-7; KJV).

Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head” (Matthew 8:20; NLT).


Jesus’ divinity:

The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word (Hebrews 1:3; NIV).

On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: King of kings and Lord of lords (Revelation 19:16; NIV).

We look forward with hope to that wonderful day when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed (Titus 2:13; NLT).

This faith was given to you because of the justice and fairness of Jesus Christ, our God and Savior (2 Peter 1:1; NLT).

Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! (John 14:9; NLT).

Jesus is Lord (Romans 10:9; NLT).

“My Lord and my God!” Thomas exclaimed (John 20:28; NLT).

The Father and I are one (John 10:30; NLT).

The name of our Lord Jesus will be honored because of the way you live, and you will be honored along with him. This is all made possible because of the grace of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ (2 Thessalonians 1:12; NLT).
