CHRIST HUMANITY AND DIVINITY AND THE CROSS

COLOSSIANS 1:19-20

19For God was pleased to have all his fullnesst dwell in him, 20and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

1: 19 By this statement, Paul was refuting the Greek idea that Jesus could not be human and divine at the same time. Christ is fully human; he is also fully divine. Christ has always been God and always will be God. When we have Christ, we have all of God in human form. Don’t diminish any aspect of Christ— either his humanity or his divinity.

1: 20 Christ’s death provided a way for all people to come to God. It cleared away the sin that keeps us from having a right relationship with our creator. This does not mean that everyone has been saved but that the way has been cleared for anyone who will trust Christ to be saved. We can have peace with God and be reconciled to him by accepting Christ, who died in our place. Do you still feel a distance between you and the Creator? Be reconciled to God. Come to him through Christ.
