Peace be with you!


I'll start over. This is purely for my benefit, not yours... because I care.


<b>The Son of God </b>& <b>Jesus Christ </b>are the <b>Same Person</b>. That <b>One Person </b>has always existed. He is <b>God's only begotten Son</b>. Co-eternal. He possesses a <b>Divine Nature</b>. <b>Jesus Christ </b>is the Name given to the <b>Son of God </b>over 2000 years ago when the Incarnation took place. The Incarnation refers to the moment in history when the <b>Son of God</b> assumed a <b>human nature </b>& everything that goes along with it, including a <b>human soul </b>& mortality of the <b>flesh</b>. The <b>Son of God </b>suddenly possessed <b>Two Natures</b> which subsisted in the <b>One Divine Person </b>in what is known as the <i>Hypostatic Union</i>. That <b>One Person </b>freely offered His Life on earth for the reparation of the sins of humanity. He died on the Cross. At that moment His <b>Human Soul</b> left His <b>Human Body</b>. His <b>Body </b>was laid in a tomb. His <b>Human Soul </b>still united to His <b>Divinity</b> were untouched - They cannot cease to exist. That <b>One Person </b>descended to the dead & preached to the souls in Abraham's bosom for three days, His <b>Body</b> still in the tomb. After three days, He reunited with His <b>Body</b> & rose from the dead. He ascended into heaven - <b>Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity</b>. He is <b>One Person</b>. He always was, He always will be. <b>One Person </b>was made incarnate, <b>One Person</b> died, <b>One Person </b>rose again, <b>One Person </b>ascended. That <b>One Person </b>is <b>Jesus Christ</b>, <b>The Son of God</b>. "<b>Jesus Christ</b>" & "<b>The Son of God</b>" can be used interchangeably. Yes, <b>Jesus Christ</b> died; Yes, <b>The Son of God</b> died - not two persons, but <b>One Person </b>- <b>Jesus Christ </b>and <b>The Son of God</b> are <b>One (& the Same) Person</b>.


Yes, I'm still having fun :) I live for this stuff!
