Why Is It Necessary for Jesus Christ to Be Both God and Man in One Person? | March 26 Who can reconcile sinful humanity to a holy God? Only someone who is both fully divine and fully human. In today's episode of Strength for Today, Pastor John Blevins from Christ Church Presbyterian in Knoxville, TN, unpacks the rich biblical truth of 1 Peter 2:4-8 and Westminster Larger Catechism Question 40 to answer this vital question: Why is it necessary for Christ to be both God and man in one person? We explore how Jesus, the cornerstone rejected by men but chosen by God, is uniquely qualified to offer a perfect sacrifice, represent us before God, and be the foundation of our faith and salvation. The unity of His two natures—without confusion, without division—is essential to the gospel message and your hope today. Whether you are seeking clarity on the person of Christ, assurance of salvation, or encouragement in your walk with God, this episode will strengthen your faith and equip you with gospel truth.
