What does the Bible say about the humanity of Christ?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that Jesus is both fully God and fully man, emphasizing His real humanity to mediate for sinners.
The scripture asserts that Jesus Christ is the one Mediator between God and man, as stated in 1 Timothy 2:5. Paul highlights that Jesus is 'the man Christ Jesus,' affirming His genuine humanity. Despite some denying this truth, the Bible reveals that Christ not only existed eternally with the Father but also fully took on human flesh—'bone of our bone, flesh of our flesh.' This dual nature is vital as He represents humanity and is able to mediate effectively with God, essential for the salvation of sinners. His humanity allows Him to empathize with our struggles, making Him the perfect mediator who understands our weaknesses.
