What did Yeshua do?

[visionary]

Asking folks what is significant about Yeshua, the three top answers I hear are: his birth, his death and his resurrection.
Yet all three of those were not in his hands. The one thing that was fully in his hands was .........

 

[Josiah]

All 3 of those were in His hands.

 

[visionary]

Yeshua, in the flesh, did not decide to be born no more than we do, nor do we decide to resurrect. As one born of the flesh, in all manners confined to those things of the flesh, which he can choose to do, Yeshua did what?

 

[Josiah]

Yeshua, in the flesh, did not decide to be born no more than we do, nor do we decide to resurrect. As one born of the flesh, in all manners confined to those things of the flesh, which he can choose to do, Yeshua did what?

Created the universe...... saved me.

 

[visionary]

Created the universe...... saved me.

IN the flesh? Yeshua created you... I thought He didn't get His flesh until He was born?

 

[Lamb]

He's God. What did he do? He declared, "I and the Father are one." John 10:30.

Yeshua is God who came to earth in order to die for us so we may live. No man could atone for our sins except Jesus who is man and is God. He isn't part God. He's God. He has been God always and will always be God.

The Lord Jesus Christ did decide to be born and he chose his earthly mother and he chose the time and place of his birth - he is God and God did the things I listed.

, nor do we decide to resurrect. As one born of the flesh, in all manners confined to those things of the flesh, which he can choose to do, Yeshua did what?

The Lord Jesus Christ chose the time and place of his crucifixion and the time and place of his resurrection. The Lord Jesus Christ said John 10:17-18 [17] For this reason, the Father loves me: because I lay down my life, so that I may take it up again. [18] No one takes it away from me. Instead, I lay it down of my own accord. And I have the power to lay it down. And I have the power to take it up again. This is the commandment that I have received from my Father." - he is God and God did the things I mentioned.

 

[visionary]

He kept the commandments. In all that He did, His perfect obedience was the most outstanding attribute.

Obedience as a creature - as a human being - is significant yet the most significant characteristic of the Lord Jesus Christ is his incarnation - God born of Blessed Mary, the virgin daughter of Zion is the heart and core of Christianity.

 

[Lamb]

He kept the commandments. In all that He did, His perfect obedience was the most outstanding attribute.

As God, could He do any differently? No.

As God, could He do any differently? No.

Considering He laid aside His divinity and operated as a man would then yes He could have done different, if not then He could never have been tempted or gone through the things that we do and be able to advocate for us

Do you think that he had to sin to understand how we are tempted by sin and regret it when done?

 

[psalms 91]

Do you think that he had to sin to understand how we are tempted by sin and regret it when done?

No but I believe in order for stan to be able to tempt Him He had to be man and could be tempted. If everything He did He did as God then satan has a right to say that it isnt fair. He showed us what man is capable of doing

Holy scripture says that the Lord was tempted in every way like we are yet without sin. No explanation if given to indicate that he did (or did not) have the same reactions as any man (or woman) may have. Satan tried the It isn't fair thing when he tempted Job and Satan failed then so I do not think a repeat performance was needed, do you?

NOoooooo!!!! Absolutely not... There never has been a need or excuse for sin.

Yeah I do because if Jesus duid it as God then satan has a point since God cannot be tempted

God cannot sin for He is Holy.

 

[MoreCoffee]

God cannot sin for He is Holy.

Seems like some folk are having trouble with the concept that Jesus is and was and always will be God as well as a man (the second Adam).

 

[Lamb]

Even as man though, Jesus could be tempted but could not sin...because....He is 100% God at the same time as being 100% man. The perfect lamb.

Yes, Speaking of the Lord Jesus Christ the holy scriptures say "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to have compassion on our infirmities, but rather one who was tempted in all things, just as we are, yet without sin." (Hebrews 4:15 )
