In the end it's all speculation, either assertion cannot be tested.Everyone of us has a Judas inside us when the pressure is on, only the grace of God can carry us.

Indeed, we have the bible. Here is what Jesus had to say about it:No, it's not "speculation."
We have the Word of God.
You're so used to speculating with ridiculous things outside the Bible you don't even understand some of us respect it.
The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; (Jer. 17:9 NKJ)
But that would not apply to those who do not have a sin nature...It's possible ALL here would be first in line to betray him.
And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and each of them began to say to Him, "Lord, is it I?" (Matt. 26:22 NKJ)
His servants were angels ... in case you did not know. Not his human followers.Indeed, we have the bible. Here is what Jesus had to say about it:
Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.” (John 18:36)
In the scripture, there is basis for both points. However, unless we go back in time and test it out, we can never know. Thus Speculation.
Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels? (Matthew 26:53)His servants were angels ... in case you did not know. Not his human followers.
Jesus knew that his disciples were useless at that point in their lives...
“You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written:
“’I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’" Mark 14:27
You still can't name one human who has always existed since eternity past like you claim Christ's humanity did. I'll give you another chance to stop embarraassing yourself.So you don't have eternal life? Can I tell you about the Gospel of Jesus Christ then?
Deny all you like. Christ (in His humanity) has always had eternal life. He did not receive eternal life at a point in time like we have.
Once again it is your inability to comprehend that His humanity is joined in one person with Deity. He is eternal. His Deity is fully God and His humanity is fully human. He is eternal because he is God. He could die for us because He is human. He did not start being human at a point in time. He took on flesh, a body you prepared for me. His humanity already existed in the one person of the Lord Jesus Christ. He did not change being the person He always was by becoming something He wasn't before.
You even admit that what you write above is part of a science fiction book.I am going to write a science fiction book... about these three guys who had themselves convinced collectively they were a genius.
It will be called... "The First Human Trinity."
OopsYou even admit that what you write above is part of a science fiction book.
You have a fertile fictional imagination, that's for sure.
Sorry, you set yourself up for embarrassment so easily.

Also, any attempt to redefine what constitutes humanity will continue to be denied.

You also cannot name one human who has always existed since eternity past like Sawdust claims Christ's humanity did.Is a Christian who's body has died?
Who's soul is awaiting the Resurrection?
Is that soul humanity?
If not?
What is that soul classified as while he/she waits?
What do have? Edited for personal insulting another memberYou also cannot name one human who has always existed since eternity past like Sawdust claims Christ's humanity did.
Mormons believe in the preexistance of spirits. Are you a Mormon?
The topic is eternal humanity both eternal past and eternal future that Sawdust is claiming. I asked him for one human like that and all I hear is crickets. You instead of answering my question instead resorted to rabbit holes questions, which is your standard practice. Answer my question first and I'll be more than happy to answer yours.What do have?

You can not answer my question.
Try again?

I didn't say to tell me one Divine-Human, I asked for a simple human, like you or me. Do you know of anyone who is eternal both past and future?Read your Bible in these places?
'You will eat the old supply and clear out the old because of the new. Moreover, I will make My dwelling among you, and my soul will not reject you.' I will also walk among you and be your God, and you shall be My people." Lev 26:10-12And they began to remove the foreign gods from their midst and to serve Jehovah, so that his soul became impatient because of the trouble of Israel. Judges 10:16Jehovah himself examines the righteous one as well as the wicked one, and anyone loving violence his soul certainly hates." Ps 11:5“Bring no more futile sacrifices; Incense is an abomination to Me. The New Moons, the Sabbaths, and the calling of assemblies— I cannot endure iniquity and the sacred meeting. Your New Moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates; They are a trouble to Me, I am weary of bearing them.. Isa 1:13-14
So? Do you believe the Bible is the Word of God?
I don't think so,....
Jesus was in the OT the pre-incarnate Lord God of Israel!

And, to cover the topic normally we need to define terms that we can agree on.The topic is eternal humanity both eternal past and eternal future that Sawdust is claiming.

"Be a man" by you running away from answering my questions? Is that what being a man means to you?And, to cover the topic normally we need to define terms that we can agree on.
Be a man and give a straight answer!
Stop it. It becomes like a form of insanity when you accuse another of the very thing you are doing."Be a man" by you running away from answering my questions? Is that what being a man means to you?
