1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Could this not also be interpreted in the way that Jesus mediated for us while he was on earth as a man but now he's not longer a man? I mean what is Jesus right now? Is he a human or is he God? :confused:
He is God, a part of the trinity, but he has a glorified human body.
Does this mean that he is human? While he has on earth he was half human, half God, but what is he now? 100% God? Or still half human, half God? Boy, this is confusing. :(
Somebody in another forum claims that Jesus the God, is made up by the christians because they wanted their own God and since other religions also had their virgin birth Jesus also had to be born by a virgin. This person claims to believe in Jesus the son of God but not in Jesus as God.Totally strange....
Confused, is there a difference between? the man Jesus Christ & the God Jesus Christ

He is fully man and fully God both past, present, and future. His human body is in a glorified state now.

I know this.
But what is he now?
If he is now 100% God again (God's son) then what does this verse mean?
Is this verse addressing ONLY the time when Jesus was here or does this verse imply that Jesus is still a man?
And another question which comes to my mind is has Jesus always had the title Son of God or did he only get this title when he became a human? I mean before Jesus came to earth was he already God's son or was he simply God? I hope you understand what I mean. Was there already this difference between The Father and Jesus before Jesus came to earth? -

I am a Baptist pastor, and I know the term, but I have never used it in a message before.

I am Baptist and have been a pastor and I have used it many times. But I have also used transubstantiation as well as traducianism. :laugh:

Could you please not use this thread here for small talk? I am looking for answers to my questions. I hate it when threads are highjacked.

When my son was being convicted and seriously searching, the one question that hung him up so long was understanding the trinity. I remember him asking how God could be three yet be one. It was such a blessing when he called me and said how he came to his understanding, then he called our pastor and youth director to tell them -- and was baptized the following Sunday.
XD, how much I pray for this same understanding and acceptance to be yours and that you come to know the peace that God offers to all who come to Him. -

Jesus is still the God-man - fully God and fully man. He ascended in his resurrected body into heaven. -
But as for "proving something" doctrinally -- it proves nothing. The authority for doctrinal truth vs heresy STILL rests in scripture "alone".
In Christ,
