I actually wrote one of my final essays in theological college on the Absolute Primacy of Christ (one of the technical names for this topic), and more theologians than you'd think agree with the premise. The two big ones for me were Duns Scotus and Maximus the Confessor. Maximus can even be interpreted as going so far as to liken Christ's divinizing relationship with humanity, with humanity's relationship with creation (born of dust of the earth, and the breath of God), as He connects us to the infinite, so we mediate for creation! As mentioned, Barth gets thrown in, even TF Torrance gets a say in some senses. My favourite argument with this is: if the Incarnation is an act which glorifies God and communicates His love for creation, why would He make such an act contingent on humanity's greatest mistake? Instead, in the Incarnation, Christ comes to His world, not as an alien, but as the final centrepiece, as was intended from the beginning.

So, "pope" is an affectionate term for father. Both the coptic patriarch and the Catholic patriarch are given this title, but it's not official in either case. The official title is arch bishop of Alexandria and Rome respectively. There are several arch bishop seats which also come with the title patriarch, but only the one in Rome has the implications we associate with "pope" in the west. The coptic "pope" is more like the arch bishop of Constantinople. Very important yes, but he doesn't claim to be a principal of unity.

The only reason creation is groaning is because we’ve sinned. Had there been no sin to enter the world, there would be no death and decay, ergo, no groaning. “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” Romans 5:12 Just my 2 cents on the matter.

I just want to say that your basic argument here is completely orthodox from what I can tell. In fact, Wesley and other Methodists taught that Christ’s incarnation, death, resurrection, and glorification redeemed not only human sin but all creation, and that in the eschaton all things would be restored and fully redeemed through Christ. Wesley even believed that animals, which were so low compared to humans due to the curse of the Fall, would be redeemed and freed from corruption such that they would become more like humanity. So you’re not alone in seeing the universal effects of Christ’s incarnation, life, and work.

Could Adam have died for Eve when she approached him with the forbidden fruit? Should Adam have sought and found the serpent, crushed it under foot, and offered to take Eve's punishment for her sin? Was it possible for Adam to atone for her sin, impart his rightness to her, and secure her from the threat of any future sin? Would this "faith" by Adam have been enough to unite humanity to the eternal Son? Or was the game up when Eve sinned, no matter what Adam chose. Where was the Rubicon crossed, when Eve sinned or Adam? When Paul describes Jesus as the second Adam, he implies that Adam has a purpose beyond simply being that went unfulfilled, and that Jesus fulfilled it. Did Jesus fulfill that purpose with His perfect righteousness or also with the cross? Is Adam a typology-pointer for the entire incarnate life of the Son, even Jesus' present resurrected state, or is Adam only a typology-pointer for the incarnate Son's righteousness only?

[@bigscarysteve]

I can't speak for what Lutherans believe, but a belief in transubstantiation does not mean that Christ's body is omnipresent. God can miraculously multiply any physical substance (not to mention moving it through space and time), including the body and blood of Christ. There's a reason there's a feeding miracle at the beginning of John chapter 6. Do you suppose God made the fish and the loaves omnipresent? If so, then there wouldn't have been twelve baskets left over--the world would have been overrun with it. The same is true of the body and blood of Christ--if they were omnipresent, you couldn't walk down the street without tripping over them. No, they're only multiplied enough to replace the bread and the wine on the altar.

Sin is not an Act, it's a Fact. There is no "if" about sin. We are born into death. We die with Christ and in that death, death itself dies, and we live on in Christ. Why it has to be that way, I don't know. If Adam was perfect, he wouldn't have been vulnerable to temptation. That imperfection was sin as a fact. The act just revealed the sin that had previously been hidden by ignorance. Sin, imperfection, limitation, and mortality are all tied together somehow. Christ is the only way out.

While Adam’s act has those connected I would postulate that Christ would still be need for Adam, Eve and descendants would sin without knowledge and thus without guilt. Their sinfully acts would still require forgiveness from a perfect God. The tradition of age of accountability best support by David and the loss of his son to Bathsheba would suggest such a view is acceptable.

This is a silly question that can only exist if your branch of Christianity is heavily based on theological arguments, structures, and schemas. I think the catholic church and the reformed tradition fall under that. In those traditions, you make statements about what God wants, can do, does, and wants for humanity beyond what the scriptures explicitly say, because you've formed a theological framework through human rationality, with the scriptures as basis (Think Thomas Aquinas). In such traditions, its possible to ask hypothetical questions that are against reality and then put a hypothetical God in such situations because you've reasoned out, almost formulaically, how God must act in every situation, and even in situations that don't exist. That is the folly of such traditions. It's a theological argumentative treadmill. There is no peace or rest in a framework like that. It puts reason above qualities of God that the bible affirms. Let me explain. If the bible says God is Love, the rationalist will find parts of scripture that form a mechanism that they then say is a biblical teaching. That mechanism may contradict that God is Love, but they'll ignore that because they have used reason and logic to construct a siege engine against this Castle of God. I don't wish to disparage these folks. But I must also say that these questions are best unasked, because we know God is above them. He has already heard these questions before the formation of our world, and EXPLICITLY Ephesians says that God's plan for humanity as it is in the Gospel was the version that glorifies God in heaven the most.

Yet still, the jesus' human nature is not. The natures may seem combine but they're not.

@@judahkozel8270 I wrote a longer reply but It ignored the main problem. The first question was is humanity capable of the infinite I don't think you're saying it is so my second question isn't (is Jesus capable of the infinite ?) my question is (is Jesus infinite?). I think he is infinite because Infinite plus finite is infinite do you understand the question now? I argue that you can't use Jesus as an example of finite doing infinite because he is infinite he has an infinite nature that does the infinite and finite and a finite nature that does only finite Jesus can't be both finite and infinite a part of Jesus is finite that is his human nature but as a person (as a whole) he is infinite if you disagree then answer the question is Jesus infinite without dividing him into human and divine tell me as a whole is he infinite Edit: no the soul isn't infinite Colossians 1:17 New International Version 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. If god decides to erase your soul from existence then it will be erased our physical bodies will be purified after the resurrection and will enjoy the same thing read first Corinthians 15 other edit I would prefer to discuss this on discord

I never gave it much thought, I've always wondered how Jesus never sinned, granted he was perfect since he was fully God and fully man, yet he was still a person, but he didn't sin.

I have questions after this video. Help🙏🏼 1. If something is perfect - does it mean that it is infinite? 2. And is infinite=divine? Or is it just the other way around? 3. Has math always existed? 4. And why is alpha and omega, beginning and the end one of God’s titles? Doesn’t that mean that God has a beginning and an end=finite? Someone answer!!🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@redeemedzoomer6053]

I will gladly answer! 1. That's a good question. I would be inclined to say yes, but I don't know. I think if humans are to be made perfect, we'll have to participate in God's infinite-ness in some way. 2. Yes, I can't think of anything infinite that isn't God Himself, or something in the mind of God like math 3. Yes 4. "BEING" the beginning and the end isn't the same has HAVING a beginning and an end. God is the beginning of our universe, which means our universe has a beginning, not that God has a beginning. God is the "end" of the world too, but "end" doesn't imply destruction. It just implies that the story of the universe is leading to something, like a goal. Hope this helps!

@@redeemedzoomer6053 This helps a lot! Thank you! You say that math is in the mind of God, what does that mean? Is it just his laws or his pattern or his way of creating or like a tool? Or is it a part of him? Like if math is infinite and God is infinite. And if infinite is divine - what role does math play?

[@redeemedzoomer6053]

@@majaekros5086 I wouldn't say math is "part" of God, since God has no parts. However, the mind of God is infinite, meaning it contains all possible ideas. Anything you can possibly think of, God already thought of it. Math is just evidence that such a mind must exist.
