b'How cool is it that Jesus is human and God at the same time? You might be wondering how that is possible. The Bible is full of examples of Jesus showing both His humanity and deity:\\n\\u2022 He has the same emotions we have. He wept and cried when His friend Lazarus died, just as we weep and cry when we lose people we love (John 11:33-36).\\n\\u2022 Jesus healed the sick and forgave sins, which are things only God can do (Mark 2:1-12).\\n\\u2022 Throughout His life and ministry, Jesus and those who truly knew Him were clear: He is God (Matthew 1:18-25; John 8:12-58; 10:30-33; 20:26-28).\\n\\u2022 Jesus experienced extreme stress, just like we do. In fact, on the night of His crucifixion, He suffered from a condition known as hematohidrosis, which means He was sweating blood (Luke 22:44).\\n\\u2022 On the cross, Jesus even asked a question we\\u2019ve all asked at some point: \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (Matthew 27:46). If Jesus knew the same feeling of helplessness we feel sometimes, it shows He is truly human.\\n\\u2022 He triumphed over sin and death because He is the true God (Luke 23:44-49; John 3:16; 11:25-26).\\nThe next time you\\u2019re going through a hard situation, remember Jesus went through hard times too; He is very acquainted with human suffering (Hebrews 4:14-16). Just as He reigns victorious over sin, death, and Satan, you too can be victorious through faith in Him. \\u2022 Alexis Wohler\\n\\u2022 Does it encourage you to know Jesus went through the same emotions you?\\n\\u2022For you, what is the most convincing evidence that Jesus is human?
