His humanity, or as the Bible puts it "in the days of His flesh" when He took on human nature to accompany His divine nature.

True, but my point is that Christ did lay aside His divinity and submitted Himself to the Father in all things to show us that by accepting the Holy Spirit in us, we too can overcome sin and "walk even as He walked".

I'm pretty sure after Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit he went on in his prejudice against Gentiles for a while, until Paul rebuked him and in Acts 10 God showed him "not to call any man (not pork) common or unclean."

au contraire, it's 2019. I can identify as a transgender apache helicopter

But, isn't that saying the same thing? If I lay aside my new $350.00 Fluke 87V and test that 9V with my tongue, haven't I chosen to not exercise the Fluke? (Can you tell I'm really stoked about the Fluke! Look at all the stuff it does: True RMS, Freq. for testing ASDs, Foreign Voltage...

The fact that there will be false prophets is evidence by that alone there will be true prophets. Otherwise, the warning would simply be "Beware of those claiming to be prophets."

What about Revelation 12:17? Do you believe the Bible? Please don't tell me that only the first 3 books of Revelation are unfolded.

"Hereby we do know that we know Him if we keep His commandments. He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments is a liar and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth His word, in him verily is the love of God perfected. Hereby know we that we are in Him." 1 John 2:3-5 Adventists...

So, how does this post disprove that Jesus had two natures and at times spoke and acted according to His divinity and other times spoke and acted in His humanity?

John the Baptist is positively identified as being filled with the Holy Spirit from the womb, but we're going to doubt that the One John was specifically raised up as "the voice of one crying in the wilderness" to announce His arrival had that same Spirit?

I don't divorce them, I point out that He was simultaneously both. When He said, "I and My Father are One" He was speaking as Almighty God but when He said, "The Son of Man can do nothing of Himself" He was speaking in His humanity.

Really? He was conceived by the Holy Spirit but somehow wasn't filled with the Holy Spirit. How'd that happen?

There's an old hymn with a line in it which says, "Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin..." Not a sin to be tempted, but to give in to it. "...each victory will help you to some other win; Fight manly onward, dark passions subdue... Looking ever to Jesus, He will carry you through."...

I can. 5:7 "Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 5:8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; 5:9...

Well, truth is a much needed revelation nowadays.

John says those who claim to know Jesus but break His commandments are liars and have no truth in them.

Amen! Just bragging rights for something that was no great feat? Nope, He overcame sin.

To God be the glory

A description of the life of Jesus which is what you've given above does nothing to answer the question of whether He was capable of choosing to sin. What does offer evidence that He could choose to sin is the fact that on several occasions He fought very hard to resist the temptation to sin...

Jesus couldn't sin but had to "learn obedience" anyway? Why? Jesus couldn't sin but almost died twice fighting temptation both in the wilderness after His baptism and also in Gethsemane when He pleaded over and over for His Father to deliver Him from the agony and suffering of the Cross that...
