There are plenty of voices out there today who will try to tell you that Jesus was not wholly man. He was, in fact 100% man–born of a woman, with blood pumping through His veins. At the very same time, the Scriptures tell us that He was also 100% God. How could such a thing be? I don’t know the specifics–nor does ANY man, for this is the activity of our God. What I DO know is that what God inspired in His Word to us is 100% true, and He tells us that Jesus was both God AND man. We also have some insight into why Jesus had to be a man. He had to suffer as we do, had to be tempted as we are, and because He was man, was the only man ever born who could offer a sinless substitute as a sacrifice for our sins.
“For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.” 1 Corinthians 15:21-22
In Christ,
