This document discusses key topics in the theology of Christ, including his divine and human natures, the hypostatic union of those natures in one person, his ability or inability to sin (peccability), and several historical Christological heresies. It provides biblical support for Christ's deity and humanity, examines how his two natures are united in one person without confusion, and explores whether Christ could have sinned given his divine nature. The document also briefly outlines five Christological heresies rejected by orthodox Christianity.

Bible Alive Jesus Christ 001: "“The Method of Biblical Christology”BibleAlive
Discover what Christology is and its relevance. Learn to properly distinguish between the Jesus of Faith and the Jesus of history. Become cautious of the pitfalls of rationalism as seen in biblical skepticism and religious fundamentalism. In this class we critique the “Quests for the Historical Jesus.” Learn about the “Old Quest” and why it failed, and also explore “the New Quest” and “the Third Quest.” See the Theological History of Jesus and learn that the Gospels are not biographies but rather inspired witnesses to the “events and teachings of Jesus insofar as they have meaning for the Church.” Most importantly, learn the right orientation for confronting the mystery of Jesus Christ.

1. What Does It Mean to be a Disciple of Jesus? KeynoteWilliam Anderson
This is the first of four sessions of our "Being and Making Disciples" workshop held in Sacele, Romania on September 1, 2012. In this session we answer the question "What Does It Means to be a Disciple of Jesus?". We did this by first looking at what the word "disciple" means and then looking at what Jesus, Peter and Paul had to say about being a disciple and then we finished by looking at Jesus' life to learn from His example. English with Romanian translation.
Chapter 8 of "Bible Basics" a Bible study manual, dealing with the nature of the Lord Jesus Christ, deconstructing the doctrine of the Trinity, showing the differences between God and Jesus, advocating a unitarian approach to God.

Kenoticism, also known as kenotic theology or kenotic Christology, is an unbiblical view of Christ’s nature. Kenoticism teaches that the divinity of the Son of God was somehow lost or lessened when the Lord took on human flesh and entered the world.
"I am the Bread of Life...I am the light of the world...I am the gate for the sheep...I am the good shepherd...I am the resurrection...I am the true vine...I am the way, the truth and the life; no man cometh unto the father, but by Me." John 6:35; 8:12; 10:7,11; 11:25; 14:6; 15:1

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. 1.Divine Nature
1. Biblical texts supporting deity: Jn 1:1; 20:28; Rom 9:5; Titus 2:13; Heb 1:8; 2 Peter 1:1
2. He had divine titles attributed to Him:
a. Lord
b. Son of Man
c. Son of God
d. Messiah
e. “I am” saying
f. Alpha and Omega
3. Performs divine activities
Jesus Christ has a hand in creation (Jn 1:3; Col 1:16), Heals the sick (Mk 1:32-34; Acts
3:6), forgives sin (Mk 2:1-12; Lk 24:47; acts 5:31), Dispenses the Spirit (Matt 3:11; Ascts
2:17, 33), Raises the dead (Lk 7:11-17; Jn 5:21; 6:40)
4. 2. Human Nature
1. Biblical texts supporting His humanity: Matt 4:4; John 8:40
2. His titles:
a. Son of David
b. Genealogical records in Matt 1 and Luke 3
c. The Son of Man
d. The Last (or second) Adam: 1 Cor 15:45; Rom 5
3. He had a real human body:
a. He had a human birth (Lk 2:7)
b. He grew as all children grow (Lk 2:40, 52)
4. He was subject to human finitude
a. He could become weary, hungry, and thirsty.
b. He could suffer physically and undergo death.
5. 3. The Hypostatic Union
1. The two natures do not address each other.
2. Jesus (as well as the biblical writers) always refers to Himself as a
singular person (which He is, one person).
3. When speaking of this one person, Jesus Christ, Scripture does not
explicitly distinguish between His two natures.
6. 3. The Hypostatic Union
1. The union of the two natures in the one person
a. Two intact natures: an “unconfused, unchangeable” union of natures
b. One person: a personal, “Indivisible, inseparable” union
Summary Definition of the Person of Christ (from EDT, 540)
“In the incarnation of the Son of God, a human nature was inseparably united
forever with the divine nature in the one person of Jesus Christ, yet with the
two natures remaining distinct, whole, and unchanged, without mixture or
confusion so that the one person, Jesus Christ, is truly God and truly man.”
7. 3. The Hypostatic Union
1. The Necessity of the Hypostatic Union:
a. Christ must be divine to be a worthy sacrifice for our sins.
b. Christ must be human to be a representative of humanity.
8. 4. Peccability
1. Could Christ have sinned?
a. The Problem: Christ, as a member of the Trinity,
cannot sin.
b. But then how could he be tempted?
c. What do we make of Hebrew 4:15?
2. Christ never did sin: John 8:29, 46; 14:30-31; 15:10; 2
Cor 5:21
3. Christ really was tempted: Matt 4:1-11; Hebrews 4:15
9. 4. Peccability
1. A Solution:
We must follow the teaching of scripture on this issue. It states
clearly that Christ really was tempted in every way, and this
temptation was real. Yet at the same time, it would be impossible for
Christ to sin because of His divine nature. We might think of it as a
backup to His human nature. Even if this is so, the way the scriptures
speak is that Christ did not need His divine nature as a “backup” but
resisted temptation like we can as well. That is what Hebrews is
getting at; He resisted temptation to show us that we can as well. He
couldn’t show us how to beat temptation if He was relying on His
divine nature.
10. 5. Christological Heresies
1. Arianism: Denied full divinity – characterized by the phrase
“There was a time when he [Christ] was not.”
2. Socinianism: Jesus was a good man that God exalted to a
delegated divinity
3. Kenoticism: Turn to Phil 2:5-8
4. Docetism: Christ only appeared to be human
5. Apollinarianism: Tricotemistic; Jesus had human body and soul,
but divine spirit. He was not fully human.
