One of the most difficult questions you can think about: How Can Jesus Be Both Man And God? Phil Ryken, the Christian theologian and President of Wheaton College, tackles this question:
Do you agree or disagree with Dr. Ryken? What other resources have you find helpful to explain this Christian mystery?

I disagree. Jesus was a Prophet. He was a man in all respects from childhood to manhood. Gospel of John clearly says that he was taken into the garden where he was given First Aid Treatment for two days. His two days absence from his desciples led to the whamisbelief that he denied death. What a wrong belief!
Thank you for taking the time to comment. If you (re)read the gospel of John you will learn that Jesus is more than a man. He was sent from heaven. He made divine claims about Himself that the Jews said were blasphemous, “You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God” (John 10:33; see also John 5:18). That is why they handed Jesus over to Pilate to be crucified (John 19:7). John’s gospel makes clear that Jesus died–not swooned–on the cross (John 19:30). After Jesus rose again from the dead, Thomas said, “My Lord and My God!” (John 20:28)
