  3. Probably not. College doesn't make a preacher.

    I think He limited Himself to the constraints of the Time Period. This would jive w the kenosis in Philippians- He emptied Himself!

    I THINK that one of the things that He emptied Himself of is His Perfect Knowledge - wouldnt this be a type of humiliation? To think that the Lord God of Heaven would humble Himself like that for sinners!

    I could be wrong, I am willing to be corrected if so!

    We do know that as a member of the Godhead that His knowledge and Wisdom is always perfect.

    Great discussion

    I would not see it ever being though that he was accommodating Himself to culture and times, as in some have stated that Jesus talked about demons due to their ignorance in thinking they existed, as believe that they really existed and that he dealt with them!

    Let me rephrase

    He chose to not know about airplanes cars etc

    In Spiritual matters, He knew everything

    Make sense?

    Hopefully. Lol

    When we have a new Christian - we often recommend that they read the Book of John. Why - because a new Christian needs something that is in a "Simpler style"

    Funny story

    Buddy of mine leads a man to Christ

    Tells him to read John

    Next week they meet

    Jim says well did you complete reading John?

    New disciple. Um yes, but Im really embarrassed about it

    Jim why? What was embarassing

    New believer: well I read to the end of the Bible. I hope that was ok? Did I do that wrong

    Jim. Nono. You did just fine

    Hehe
