Response to Peter

Response to Peter

The fact that you would even question whether Jesus was human in the same way as other humans raises serious concerns. As I stated before, orthodox incarnation Christology borders on Docetism. It seems to say “He’s a man like us… except he’s the eternal God and we’re not”. It raises questions as to whether the church councils really won out over Gnosticism, or simply repackaged and assimilated it. If Jesus is human in a different way to the rest of us, where would the validity of the comparisons between him and Adam outlined below be? Where in the Bible is his humanity expressed in qualified terms?
