    INTRODUCTION: The concept of hypostatic union states that Jesus Christ is both fully God and fully man. He is simultaneously perfectly divine and perfectly human, having two complete and distinct natures at once. Jesus had always been God (John 8:58, 10:30), but at the incarnation, Jesus became a human being (John 1:14).

    LESSON OUTLINES

    1. HIS DIVINE NATURE

    2. HIS HUMAN NATURE

    LESSON .

    OUTLINE 1: HIS DIVINE NATURE

    The scripture is clear that Jesus is God (John 20:28; Titus 2:13).

    1. Jesus claimed the divine name "I am" (John 8:58) and did things that only God can do (Mark 2:3-7).

    2. He operated in the power of His divinity (John 11:43-44; Matthew 14:18-21).

    3. He claimed divine authority (Matthew 28:18). Jesus is God's son and He was conceived by the Holy Spirit (Luke 4. Jesus is God's Son in that He was conceived by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35). Nonetheless, that does not mean Jesus did not exist before He was conceived. Jesus has always existed (John 8:58).

    An affirmation of the divinity of Jesus is required to be saved (Romans 10:9).

    • The apostle John provided a sober warning that those who deny Christ's true humanity are promoting the doctrine of the antichrist (2 John 1:7).

    • The statement "I and the Father are one" (John 10:30) confirms Jesus' divine nature, which includes omnipotence (Hebrews 1:1-4), omniscience (John 2:25), and perfection (2 Corinthians 5:21).

    LESSON OUTLINE 2: HIS HUMAN NATURE

    1. The humanity of Jesus is as important as His deity. Jesus was born as a human being while still being divine. While the Godhead has existed and reigned from all eternity (Romans 1:20), the second Person of the Trinity, the Son, took on human flesh at a particular point in time (Luke 1:35; 1 Timothy 3:16).

      When Jesus was conceived, He became a human being in addition to being God (John 1:1, 14).

      Jesus became a human being to identify with us in our struggles (Hebrews 2:17-18) and more importantly, so that He could die on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins (Galatians 3:13).

    2. Though He is fully God, Jesus (being fully human) experienced the full range of human existence: weaknesses, physical limitations, emotions, and temptations.  Jesus became hungry (Matthew 21:18), fatigued (John 4:6) and sorrowful at some point (Mark 14:34). He also socialized (John 2:1-5) and showed compassion to those in need (Matthew 9:36). He experienced the pain of betrayal (Luke 22:21, 47-48).

    3. The humanity of Jesus enabled Him to be "tempted in every way, just as we are, yet without sin" (Hebrews 4:15). He suffered for us (1 Peter 4:1). He was made poor (2 Corinthians 8:9). He was despised (Isaiah 53:3). He suffered physical pain and endured the sorrows of a lingering and cruel death (Hebrews 12:2).

    CONCLUSION: The evidences about the dual nature of Jesus Christ abound as biblical truths that cannot be denied.

    QUESTIONS:

    1. State two affirmations of the divinity of Jesus.

    2. Mention at least five experiences of Jesus as a man

    1. When peace like a river attendeth my way,
      when sorrows like sea billows roll;
      whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say,
      "It is well, it is well with my soul."

      Refrain
      It is well with my soul;
      it is well, it is well with my soul.

    2. Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
      let this blest assurance control:
      that Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
      and has shed his own blood for my soul. Refrain

    3. My sin oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
      my sin, not in part, but the whole,
      is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more;
      praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! Refrain

    4. O Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
      the clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
      the trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend;
      even so, it is well with my soul. Refrain
