No, Jesus was limited per his own words.

But the Father that dwelleth in him, that doeth the works is unlimited.

Try giving Jesus' Father some credit once in a while, huh?

Only you say God dwelled In a human which is certainly a change.
No, Paul said it in Col 2:9.

Please notice that nearly every theologian says Jesus is only a little person bodily, then twist the verse to accomodate their teaching about the little man Jesus doctrine.

I was shocked to find out all trins, unitarians and oneness teach this doctrine.

It is probably a China virus infection originating from Rome...LOL

Amen.

19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

Then you have 4 parts?

Father, Son, son(humanity) and Holy Ghost.

Question: is the 2nd persons humanity attached to all 3 now or just one of the 3?
You create problems that don't exist. All because of trying to limit God to what your mind can understand.

This is simple....who in the Godhead have humanity attached to them?

Did God discard the humanity at some point?

Howbout this....God, which is a Spirit, is now fully dwelling inside the body of His human, begotten son's humanity(quickening spirit body).

Try it, this is super easy and Biblical to explain.

I made the case that the church has always embraced the trinity and Jesus' divinity as true. From the apostles on.
The Church is found in Acts.

Stick to the book and their writings.

The extra Biblical commentary is rubbish, and created the RCC etc.

Attached to them? What does that even mean? Jesus became fully human while being fully God. Humanity was not attached to him. His essence didn't change. And he didn't discard his humanity.

So you got it right, but the guys who learned directly from the apostles are wrong? You should do comedy!

Incarnationists teach that God right now has a human nature.

They teach that He "took it on" when Jesus was conceived.

My simple question is does God still have a human nature today, or did He shed it at some point.

Also, do all 3 persons share this nature or just one of them?

The Acts church only embraced this...

“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;”

We are surrounded by wolves since the Apostles are not here to straighten this mess out.

Jesus is still in the flesh.
The eternal divine Son didn’t simply make a cameo appearance in the world. He forever joined our humanity to his divinity and for all eternity will be fully God and fully man.

"This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”

And yet he's one with the other members. Obviously this oneness isn't about the physical location of any of them.

For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
That would be the gnostics and judaizers etc. Yes the Catholic church eventually did adopt some falsehoods. But the early heretics were fringe sects.

Jesus was made a spirit body after resurrecting....

44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

The falling away occurred immediately after the Apostles left a congregation or died. False teachers subverted them immediately. The endless commentary was born.
