Now this is the true faith:
that we believe and confess that our Lord Jesus Christ,
God's Son,
is both God and man, equally.
He is God from the essence of the Father, begotten
before time;
and he is man from the essence of his mother, born
in time;
completely God, completely man, with a rational soul
and human flesh:
equal to the Father as regards divinity,
less than the Father as regards humanity.
Although he is God and man, yet Christ is not two,
but one.
He is one, however, not by his divinity being turned
into flesh,
but by God's taking humanity to himself.
He is one, certainly not by the blending of his essence,
but by the unity of his person.
For just as one man is both rational soul and flesh,
so too the one Christ is both God and man.
— part of the Athanasius Creed
"It's the God-man Jesus Christ is the on Who died on the Cross, but death is something that is experienced only by the human nature, because the divine nature isn't capable of experiencing death.” — R. C. Sproul
What we should say is that Jesus Christ, the God-man died on the cross. He died according to His human nature, a death that can then be posited of the whole person.
How did "Theology Mukbang" start? Have you been struck by a quote in a book? If so, that is what highlighters and writing utensils are for to highlight, underline and copy verbatim the sentence in your notebook so that you could go back to it and think about that statement some more. If this is you, you are not alone. Dr. Glomsrud quoting Ann Blair in Heidegger’s The Concise Marrow of Theology: “In the Renaissance schoolchildren throughout Europe were taught to keep notebooks in which they were to record passages from their reading worth saving for memorization and later use…commonplace books were also used to gather arguments or factual information of interest to the individual or relevant to the discipline under study.” (xxi) We do this with books, yet why not do it with theological statements made in other media? This channel is just that: theological statements that were highlighted. I did this privately for my own edification, now they are made public, and some highlights are to answer my students questions at school where currently am honored and privileged to teach Bible. Thanks for visiting.
