BIBLE STUDY OF BOOK OF LUKE WEEK # 7 (SHARING)

This was a good read for me this morning...............


 
In these two verses, Luke observes the fact that Jesus, as fully human, had to grow in His understanding just as we do. Even though Jesus was the perfect God-man in hypostatic union, he still had to humbly submit to the discipline of the study and application of Hebrew Scriptures. His human spirit was filled with wisdom as a result of His diligent study of the Scriptures and as a result, the grace of God was upon Him in the form of a mind and human spirit saturated with Truth that He could apply. His wisdom did not result from the grace of God being "upon Him", but the wisdom He acquired as He grew in Truth resulted in the grace of God being upon Him. Remember, Jesus did not rely upon His deity in the execution of the Father's plan for His life. He relied upon the same divine assets that are available to us which included the ministry of the Holy Spirit to His spirit and divine revelation in the form of the Word. 

 Amen, the Word is my joy and my food!!!
