On Christ and Islam

On Christ and Islam

Jesus Christ, Man or God?
(The double-bind)

    


Some have said: Jesus Christ was: Man and God!
Others have said: Jesus Christ was man, then God.
Are both right, or are both wrong?
I mean, did Christ own two complete natures?
One forever human!
Another forever divine?
In those far-off days of yesteryear (635 A.D.?)—
Sections of the Christian Church refused this doctrine!
Thus, the orthodox opinion: Christ had two natures
(human and divine—)
The unorthodox, felt he had one-nature.
A Church, and a Religion divided!
Solution, Christ had one will, and that of which
Represented the will of God…
This would have seemed to have settled the argument,
But things did not settle there:
It came to being, the new issue was:
Christ had one nature and two wills.
But Mary, the mother of God, remained the Mother of God?
So what the churches ended up with was:
Christ’s nature, substance and will, in question, on how
They were mixed within the body of Jesus of Nazareth:
In those far-off days, of Christendom, and so still remain!

No: 4579/ 10-22-2014/Note one: The Churches of Jesus Christ, may be divided on doctrine, but they are not divided on Jesus’ will in being centered on God the Father’s determination…  Note two: As far as how two natures can be within one: I call it a double-bind, that is, if you mix two substance together, you have two selves within one, two natures. Extraction would prove the two embodies. Second point, the sun has helium and hydrogen, without both of those substances, the sun would not be the sun. In a like manner, Christ cannot be called Christ the Messiah, without both natures within him.
