In Matt. 27:24 Pilot calls Jesus a just person. that is because he understood that he was innocent. He calls him a person. That is because he is a man. In 1Tim. 2:5 we have one God. Then we have a mediator. He puts on the flesh by his birth and grows to be a man. Now he will be a person. In 2Cor. 2:10 in the person of Christ will be forgiveness given. Now before Jesus was born and was God in the flesh, he was Spirit. In Jn. 4:24 God is a Spirit . What is the point?
When Jesus who is God put on human body, a man. He was then called a person. In Lk. 24:39 a Spirit has no flesh or bones. The distinction would be that God is not a person until he puts on flesh. Only on a cross could flesh die and shed blood. It was the giving up of his person and his life ( the life of the flesh is the blood) , that he could pay the price required to atone for our sins.
Jesus was one with the Holy Spirit and the father. but his distinct personality came and put on flesh to become a person. When his work on earth was finished, he returned to the heavenly throne of his former glory. Phil. 2:5-10 He is equal with God and became a servant for us. and then is exalted when returning to his former place. form means the same image. Yet distinct from God the Father in personality. He even gets the highest name of Jesus. Yet he is still God. That name means savior. This personality of God is to be savior. Yet God says call me father. Matt. 5:48 and 6:9. God is one essence eternally manifest in 3 personalities, Father, son, Holy Spirit.
faith-- forsake all I trust him. Baal-- believe apostacy all lost. bible-- believe in bible life eternal.
