How do we know the doctrine of Christ's humanity is true?

Answered in 2 sources

The doctrine of Christ's humanity is affirmed through Scripture, particularly in Hebrews and Matthew, which emphasize His real human nature.

The truth of Christ's humanity is well-grounded in Scripture, particularly in Hebrews 2, which insists that it was necessary for the Son of God to become one with us in order to fulfill His redemptive mission. It states, 'For verily he took not on him the nature of angels, but he took on him the seed of Abraham.' This indicates that Christ did not assume the nature of angels but that of humanity to redeem His people. Additionally, Matthew 1:18 tells us that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, affirming the reality of His human nature that was free from sin. This dual nature—fully God and fully man—is essential to the mystery of godliness and the effectiveness of His sacrifice on the cross.
