No 90 Did the Son of God have a soul
with human knowledge? (470-474,482)

WHAT DOES THE COMPENDIUM SAY?
Compendium states:
The Son of God assumed a body animated
by a rational human soul. With His human intellect, Jesus learned many things
by way of experience; but also, as man, the Son of God had an intimate and
immediate knowledge of God, His Father.
He likewise understood people’s secret thoughts and He knew fully the
eternal plans which He had come to reveal.
PERSONAL RESPONSE
What does this mean for me?
- I can be thankful that Jesus still knows
the eternal plans He has for me personally.
- Knowing that Jesus is aware of my secret
thoughts, I can monitor my thoughts so that they are constantly pleasing
to Him.
- Where my thoughts are less than what Jesus
would expect, I can ask God’s help and also share my thoughts and feelings
with Him.
- I can be thankful too that Jesus did not lose
His divinity whilst on earth and because of that embrace the divine nature
He shares with me every day and learn to experience His infinite love for
me each day.
Questions to consider.
- How would I explain this
teaching to another person who asked or questioned how Jesus can be true
God and true man?
- What benefit does it have to
me knowing that Jesus as a human experienced learning as I do?
- What is God’s eternal
plans for me? Am I following those
plans or have I followed my own path?
- How does the impact of the
truth that Jesus is true God and true man have on me?
