[Matthew]:
So, how is Jesus God then?
[Bro. Reed]:

> "The flesh was not God."  Surely you agree with this statement.  If the
flesh
>was God then God died.  You don't believe that do you?


[Matthew]:
The flesh was mysteriously unified with God.  I believe that Jesus died only
after the flesh, as by definition God cannot die.  But the Spirit
resurrected Christ.

All Honour to Christ Jesus.
