The woman got a man without sin because Dr. Tony Evans talks about Jesus.

Dual identity of Jesus and God and man. This is the alternative only speaker, pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship in Dallas Texas and president of the alternative people whose parents came from different places in the world sometimes say their part.

This, in part, that no matter how many parts they list the only add up to 100% today. Dr. Evans explains why that limitation doesn't apply to Jesus.

Let's join him as he explains study we've been looking at the names of Jesus and what they mean and why they matter in giving to Jesus Christ in their meeting and their impact and relevance to our lives when we talk about Jesus being the son of God and the Son of Man. We are talking about humic people partaking of two natures, the words does not refer to the fact of origin from a previous source, although that is true of his humanity song refers to the sharing the same nature and the fulfilling of a particular task or role the Bible where Jesus Christ is both the son of God and the son of man, equally, that is a divine nature son of God has a human nature, Son of Man and bolt natures resident in one person, the person of Jesus Christ to be the son of God means you have divine nature to have divine nature means that divine attributes so all the attributes that make God God Jesus possesses so all that is true of God is true of Jesus because Jesus has God's nature.

God is omnipotent on the president mission, veracity, grace, mercy, justice, wrath, all those things are true of God. But Jesus nature. Jesus possesses all of those attributes. One of the aspects of God's nature is his eternal malady that has never been a time when God has not been since Jesus bears his nature, then Jesus Christ is as eternal as God is, which is why when we looked at Jesus. The word he could say in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the word was God and the Word became much so all that makes God. God gives resident in Jesus. But not only is Jesus the son of God. The Son of Man, so all that makes human beings, human beings is resident in Jesus, apart from sin he got.

Like any human being gets tired he had to sleep. Like any human being has to go to sleep. He had to like any human being has to get nutrition from food.

He had to leave because people cry. He had to be tempted by the devil, because the temptation is what the devil does to human beings.

All the things that make people, people Jesus told task in his humanity buddy Paul's basket apart from sin. Jesus being fully God bearing all the attributes of deity and fully man, bearing all the attributes of humanity. How could both be side-by-side in one person that is the virgin birth, the Bible says that the see of a woman marrying was finalized by the sperm of the Holy Spirit that shows that was not part of the process but not really being a virgin found herself pregnant. It says by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the third member of the Trinity.

He is God, so God impregnated a woman by fertilizing her and but a woman is human, so humanity and God, deity came together to create the most unique person ever to enter into human history and that is the person of Jesus Christ so that he could be called son of God and Son of Man because both natures were resident in one person made possible by the virgin birth we saw in the verse that I read in John chapter 5 verse 18 that the Jewish leaders clearly understood what he was saying to call God. His father says they thought the Killian because he made himself equal with God.

They understood that when he said God with his father.

He was saying. I have God's nature and you can have God's nature and not be God.

But there is a another concept of the word, son son gets lost in the nature from which it derives Jesus have divine nature.

Jesus has human nature. The unmixed walking side-by-side in one person, one moment could be hungry. The next moment to complete 5001 member could be Thursday. The next moment you walk toward one moment because that could rise in the DX because you got to natures operating side-by-side in one person now. In addition to the two natures.

The word son indicates a function, a function. For example, we have coming out of our ministry what we call son of the ministry there are not biological children but they have been ordained by our church to be able to go authorized by minister to another location to another church in another ministry we call them sons of the ministry, not because there is a biological attachment because there is a ministry function and because of that ministry function. They are viewed as the ministry.

Paul called Timothy his son in the ministry. He wanted Paul's biological son, but he was his ministerial son designed to fulfill a ministerial responsibility when we reported Jesus as the son of God and the son of man, he not only possesses the nature of both. But he is carrying out a responsibility for both peers fulfilling a job description on behalf of God and on behalf of us, so as son of God, he is fulfilling what the father says, and as Son of Man he is fulfilling what you and I need and as a result, he can do both in one person, one person has both operating inside of you. So when we talk about Jesus, we talk about a whole lot more than a million. When talking about two natures and two ministerial responsibilities residing in one person, God has only one plan. Obama's by one plan and that is his kingdom is God has a kingdom is called the kingdom of heaven as a kingdom update with rooms, there was a rebellion against the kingdom of Vania by Lucifer became Satan. He rebelled against God and God decided to have a plan of creating a lesser creature an inferior creature. Salomé says he made man a little lower than the angels, constitutionally inferior you don't fly like angels can flat will disappear like angels can disappear when you have the mentality of angels. We are Lord that is in. The Angels and God decided that he would create a lesser creature and calling man and he would create this lesser creature to demonstrate what he could do with the last when the lesson was dependent upon him that he could do with more when more was in rebellion against him. So we created an inferior being called man and he placed them on the third planet from the sun third rock to place on the third planet from the sun and he said man to establish my kingdom on earth like it is in heaven) by kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven give the kick the way my kingdom will work down here like it works.

I will only do through man. I will not do it.

Apart from me.

So God restricted himself, not because he couldn't do it but he chose not to do it. He only will work through man. So he tells Adam okay if we got deleted because you did not Satan dupes Adam and Eve ate of the fruit so he pulled been handed the trials the earth will to the that's why the Bible says this world lies in the hands of the wicked one Satan all this world, but he only holds the world because candidates with salt. God wants his World Bank, but to get it back. Can't do it directly because he restricted himself to only do it through a man. So in restricting himself.

That means he had to find a man we could do it but man on sale every man born since Adam did not meet the right standard to be the one through hole could reclaim the earth and bring the kingdom of and manifested down buddy have to have a man because he was doing it long God gave a prophecy in Genesis chapter 3 verse 50.

He says that the woman would clash the head of the devil. The see the woman could get me.

That is an interesting practicing because when it comes to the barn is the man that have an woman to have a but God knew in advance that the one he was talking about would not have a human father. He gives the woman the name of the seat so he says the seed of the woman not the man is going to crush the head of the devil is going to come to a human being. The problem is when we go find this man pulled the seed of the woman who had no sin qualifies to bring God's kingdom from heaven to our somewhat God decided to do was become a man so he became a man, the deity heaven entered the attic of a woman. So now we've got a man without sin, because he is the God man so that's why you got a dual day.

He's the son of God and he's the son of man, and he has come to me trying what the devil stole Dr. Evans will come back in a moment with more about what happened heaven song earth humanize first so you can dig even deeper into today's subject.

It's like having a seminary on your smart phone or other device. Start today Tony Evans or JJ. This is something man. This is why 96 is to us a son is given unto us a child is born, the son wasn't born the son was given because the sun existed before the child was born.

The child was born son. The son was just access the child and when you understand this when you come to understand that Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of the expectation of human history that that would be a man and woman who would bring God's kingdom. And that's why Paul called him the last Adam, because the first Adam left. The last Adam brought us back into God's kingdom so he you are not just saying to go to heaven say to me about God's kingdom. Salvation only got you into the kingdom door but you were brought in the door you bought into his house, his kingdom, his role, his authority is the that's what you will be operating now as son of God and Son of Man, God's goal is to replicate Jesus. Galatians chapter 4 verses four and five says that at the right time Jesus Christ came into the world for the adoption of many sons, God does not want Jesus to be an only child, unique child, unique son, not to be an only child. He is to replicate himself over and over and over and over and over and over again every time a person gets say that is accept Jesus Christ as Savior and available on again they have begun the process of finding out Jesus's brother or sister to be comfortable to the image of Christ, so that what Christ wants to father to him as well so that we are experiencing the light of God through the life of his son by the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer is what we do with the fact that is called son of God's why does it turn your Bibles to John chapter 1 verse 45 Lexus Philip found Nathaniel and said them. We have found him of whom Moses in the law and the prophets wrote the Old Testament was right about this one was to Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. Joseph steps Nathaniel said to him, can any good thing, never had a bad reputation said, and free country visa. Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him and said to him, behold an Israelite indeed in whom there is no deceit manual says to Jesus, how do you know me like you know me I would never met you know me. Jesus answered and said to him, before Philip called you you were under the figtree and I saw you. Nathaniel says Rabbi you are the son of God, you all, the king of Israel. You are God in the flesh, and you are the prophesied changes that the Old Testament promise. The promise that in Daniel chapter 7 verse 13 and 14 that the ancient of days, the father that would be a son of man who would come and reign as king. All Indonesian so they knew this prophecy was, but now he says you do the son of God to clap you the son of God, stay with me, Jesus now answers because you confessed that I am the son of God because you have accepted my dignity. You will see what this the son of me.

When you take the domestic Jesus doesn't take his friend Jesus switches it. You called me the son of God now will show you what man can do because you recognize my deity.

You will why cannot humanity go to work, because verse 51 says you truly truly shall not show you will see open God is sending and sending on Jacob's ladder in the Old Testament but on the Son of Man in the New Testament with Jacob you're gonna say watch this happen. Open got some funky away, have an open you want to see some from male come down here and show you a little something something to give you little great lesson right quick because it is 51 says truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven open the great lesson is the word in verse 51 pronouncing somebody say you integrate will not sink only talking to Nathan he says because you declared what you just declare all will see flows from you to not alert you when I just showed up in the past is not just related to that one man gets related to Christian Jesus Christ can pinpoint your history to God, heaven, God as son of man making that personal connection to God begin with the understanding that Christianity isn't about bad people becoming good.
