        Humanity of mankind comes from the Dust of the Earth created by the
spoken voice of God.The Person of God came about not by will OF MAN but by
GOD himself.In which Jesus didnt come from the Earth but HEAVEN as the Bible
says.There are degrees of Flesh,Which ours is only second to God himself.The
definition of Person is body soul and spirit.The bible calls the inner man
of Jesus the soul of GOD.Man dies once and thus there was only ONE Person of
God in order to die once.
Humanity is that sinners and saints alike for Phsycology is the way man
resons and believes as they do.Jesus is the Logos word of God incarnate.he
had all truth power and glory for he is GOD in his Flesh in the form of
Man.As we are created in his image both flesh and spiritual.Well We know in
part but Jesus has all truth.well God bless n take care bye
