LC: To understand what the Christian belief in Jesus as ‘fully human and fully divine’ mean? How might the stories of Jesus’ miracles reveal his divine nature and humanity to Christians?
“What does it mean to be human? What does it mean to be divine?” TTYP's
Humans feel emotions, get tired, can suffer; divine suggests being connected to God, having power beyond humans.
Christians believe Jesus is fully human (he got tired, felt sad, was hungry) and fully divine (he could perform miracles, forgive sins, teach with authority).
Which parts of the story show Jesus’ humanity? Which show his divinity?
-
Did Jesus feel compassion or concern? → Human
-
Did he control nature or heal miraculously? → Divine
Activity:
“I think the story of ________ shows Jesus is human because ________, and divine because ________.”
