Looking at the glorified body of Christ descrdibed in John 20:27 in relationship to Hebrews 2:10, this article shows that Jesus's glorified body has scars and wounds on it. This is crucial in order to show the permanence of the priesthood of Christ. Christ's glorified body reassures us that just as Christ's sufferings were and are eternally purposeful, so are ours; scars and wounds are not contrary to perfection.

Did Jesus see himself as the servant referred to in Isaiah 53? This understanding of Jesus' view of his mission has come under attack. This article concerns itself with a response to the work of C. F. D. Moule, C. K. Barrett, and Morna Hooker who are all critical of the view that finds Jesus' self-understanding steeped in Isaiah 53.

The suffering of Christ is essential to the comfort of the believer in his suffering. This article examines the nature of Christ's suffering, the reason for it, and how it relates to the believer’s suffering.

Is Jesus omniscient? In the Bible Jesus is portrayed as growing in knowledge. This article explains how this can be reconciled with the truth that Jesus is God and thus omniscient. The answer is found in Christ being true man and true God as taught in Philippians 2:5-8. This truth is a mystery.

Part of Christ's humiliation was becoming a man in a sinful world in order to save his sinful people. The Lord of glory "made Himself of no reputation" (Phil. 2:7) by becoming one of us. Jesus Christ had to undergo the humiliation of being born in this world because he, as the Second Adam, had to be truly of the earth while still being of heaven.

This article looks at the biblical meaning of the word "temptation." In his human nature, Jesus was temptable. Because of this human nature, Christ is able to sympathize with believers. At the same time, however, he remained sinless.

Christ's victory over the devil's temptations (Matthew 4, Luke 2) is significant for believers. The devil intended his temptations to work against Christ's mission, but Christ was victorious over him because of the Spirit and the word of God.

Is the claim of the historical Jesus real? While we have enough proof in the Bible about Jesus, this article looks at external evidence to show the historicity of Jesus. The article looks at the claims of Tacitus, Pliny, Josephus, and the Babylonian Talmud.

This article explains that Christ's victory over the devil in the temptation narrative was his initial victory, after which he went around Israel casting out demons. This was how the Lord Jesus was "binding" the devil. Christ is the last Adam and true Israel, coming to take possession of the inheritance by expelling all the enemies of God.

This article addresses the question of whether Christ could have sinned, a crucial question in Christology.

How should we understand this language of the "act of God"?
