Why was Jesus’ Humanity Important?
“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.”
PHILIPPIANS 2:5-8

Ponder This
Jesus Christ came in human form. It’s as much a heresy to deny the humanity of Jesus as it is to deny the deity of Jesus. He wasn’t all God and no man; He wasn’t all man and no God; He was the God-man. There has never been another like the Lord Jesus Christ. So, remember the humanity of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you deny the humanity of Jesus, you’re denying Christianity. He is an eternal fact, and He is a physical fact. Thank God for Jesus’s humanity. Apart from His humanity, we couldn’t be saved. He became a man to die on the cross, and apart from “the shedding of blood there is no remission” of sins (Hebrews 9:22). Apart from His humanity, we have no example. We can’t follow as an example the God of glory because we’re human, but we can walk as Jesus walked. When Jesus Christ was on this Earth, He did not pull rank on us. Every miracle He did, He did not as God but as man filled with the Holy Spirit. He lived as a man and depended on the same power that we can depend on, day by day and moment by moment.
