When Christ took on flesh, did he temporarily suspend (or “empty” himself of) his divine nature during the duration of his earthly ministry? Watch this short video, and you’ll be able to clearly answer this common question.

The salvation that Jesus offers is without price, and yet, there is a “cost” to following Jesus. So how do we reconcile the free offer of salvation with the cost of discipleship?
Many Christians try to claim that certain commandments in Scripture are unclear. More often than not, this claim simply represents the individual’s lack of desire to obey.
Are there two tracks for salvation, one for Israel and another for the Gentiles? Did God replace Israel and cut them out of his covenant forever? Or does God have an eternal plan which includes a “partial hardening” of Israel for a time, but the ultimate “grafting” of both Jews and Gentiles into the same salvific root?
“For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the Lord commanded Moses.” Joshua 11:20
God is exceedingly gracious in the order in which he arranges the battles of our lives. Too often we convince ourselves that we must fight our biggest giants first, when God would have us fight them last. Perhaps, the clearest example of this is the Christians’ final battle with his own death.
