This module/week, you have been studying the Person and Deity of Jesus Christ. In chapters 11-12 of Everyday Theology, and in chapter 23 of Introducing Bible Doctrine, you read about Jesus and support to His deity (being God). Each of these chapters provide several important supporting arguments that are seen in and out of Scripture that support the deity of Jesus and His work. In chapter 23 of Introducing Bible Doctrine, Erickson presents departures from the full deity of Christ through history. And on page 84 in Everyday Theology, Etzel & Small share some opposing views to the full deity of Christ.

Thread Prompt: The module/week readings and video provide good insight to the common doctrinal issues surrounding the deity of Jesus. Keeping this context in mind, respond to the following prompts:

Provide an example of a view that rejects or diminishes the full deity of Jesus Christ today. In other words, what is a prevailing view of Christ found in today's culture that diminishes the deity of Jesus?

Then, provide 1-2 supporting responses that you feel are the strongest in supporting the deity of Christ. Properly cite at least 2 scholarly sources as support in current Turabian format in addition to any Bible verses used. Include an accurate word count at the end.

Thread must demonstrate course-related knowledge, with a focus on applying theology to real life. Any sources used must be cited in current Turabian format and you must include your final word count at the end of your thread.
