Re: Weekly Revival Reading - Your Opinion?
The simplest answer is that Jesus was not omniscient or omnipotent. It’s impossible to imagine an omnipotent, omniscient human being. Beyond that, one must admit that the synoptic Gospels apparently contradict the supposition that Jesus was omnipotent or omniscient. If we wish to legitimize the contradictions we can call them paradoxes. The fact is, as humans we don't understand ourselves well enough to give a complete explanation of what it means to be human. Given that fact, how could we possible explain what it would mean to be human and divine simultaneously? Christology is a failure.
