This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Did Jesus know that he was

01:19

God incarnate? The claim that people try to make is somehow

01:25

Jesus became a man and he stopped being God.

01:30

As if when he became incarnate, he lost those attributes that make him deity, like omniscience.

01:40

Well, the simple answer is no. Throughout the Gospels, we see over and over and over again that Jesus can read people's minds.

01:50

You can look at Matthew 9, and you see that the Pharisees say, when he says, your sins are forgiven.

01:58

They say, who can forgive sins but God alone? And he knows what is in the minds of men.

02:03

This is evidence that he was still omniscient. Now, if Jesus, being omniscient, was walking on earth as a man, while still being omniscient, by the very definition of omniscience, he knows everything.

02:20

So yes, the simple answer, Jesus Christ, while he walked the earth as a man, knew he was

02:29

God all along. Now, some people say, but he grew in stature and knowledge, or wisdom, as some translations may say.

02:38

That is true. In his humanity, he seemed to grow. But the reality is, all throughout, he was still having the attributes of deity.

02:48

He was all -knowing, he was God, and he knew it. This podcast is part of the Striving for Eternity ministry.
