As a Creator- Son
From the Gospel of John
In the beginning was the Word
and the Word was with God
and the Word is God
He was in the beginning with God
All things are made through Him
Without Him ,nothing can be made.
And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us
From the Urantia Book
The spiritual/human biography of Jesus of Nazareth
It is literally true that the creative Word — the Creator Son — of the Universal Father was "made flesh and dwelt as a man of the realm on Urantia."
(From the Urantia Book)
In the year 1 AD ( ie from7bc to 1AD thereabouts),
a child was born in Bethlehem in Palestine .
In history ,we came to know him as Jesus , son of Joseph a carpenter from Nazareth , and his wife Mary, also called Miriam .
Joshua ben Joseph (Jesus )knew full well that he was a man, a mortal man, born of woman.
This is shown in the selection of his first title, the Son of Man.
He still bears among his numerous well-earned titles that of Son of Man;
He experienced the full gamut of human feelings and emotions
He thirsted and quenched his thirst with water.
He labored, grew weary, rested, and slept.
He hungered and satisfied such cravings with food
He obtained knowledge, gained experience, and combined these into wisdom, just as do other mortals of the realm.
He employed no agency not a part of his human endowment as a son of Joseph and Mary.
JESUS of Nazareth had lived, and continued to live, a normal and average human life on earth.
And in some of these matters he is indeed an example to his mortal creatures, even as it is recorded:
"Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being of the nature of God, thought it not strange to be equal with God.
But he made himself to be of little import and, taking upon himself the form of a creature, was born in the likeness of mankind.
And being thus fashioned as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross."
He lived his mortal life just as all others of the human family may live theirs,
"who in the days of the flesh so frequently offered up prayers and supplications, even with strong feelings and tears, to Him who is able to save from all evil, and his prayers were effective because he believed."
Wherefore it behooved him in every respect to be made like his brethren that he might become a merciful and understanding sovereign ruler over them.
