He could be hungry, thirsty and weary, that He might be a sympathetic High Priest.
As God He could still the winds and the waves. He could raise the dead; He could open His disciples' understanding. He could and did communicate power. He knew the thoughts of those about Him, and could and did foretell the manner of His death.
To deny the full Godhead glory of the Lord Jesus Christ is to turn one's back on the ONLY Savior.
Those who do so will die in their sins (John 8:2424I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. (John 8:24)). The Scripture says, "None... can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him" (Psa. 49:77None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him: (Psalm 49:7)), but the Lord Jesus was perfect God AND perfect man as He walked here on earth. It is His Person (God the Son) that gives value to the work of atonement He accomplished when lifted up on the cross (John 3:1414And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: (John 3:14)). Thus we see that in order to have the knowledge of salvation as in John 3:1616For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16), one must believe in the Person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." John 3:3636He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:36).
"No man knoweth the Son,
but the Father;
neither knoweth any man
the Father,
save the Son, and he to
whomsoever the Son
will reveal Him.”
