I want to speak of a humbling albeit important topic of the bible. The blood of Jesus Christ. How do you see this blood?.....meaning is it as ours, the blood of a mortal man or something different, maybe somehow different because He's the Christ?
To me, I see it as the blood of a mortal man while they crucified him, after all he did die on the cross......it's that this blood was shed from the Son of God, the one prophesied to come in due time, known beforehand by God. By seeing Jesus during this time the same, a human being I can relate more to His suffering and the power of God, who raised Him from death.
I don't see Jesus as God then, nor do I see him as God today, for I have the same God as Jesus, His Father, now my Father. Yet, don't judge too fast or harshly, this risen Jesus who was given the promise of the HS from his Father and God comes to us today in all of God's glory being raised to a new Spiritual body, being given the promises and it's these same promises are promised to us also.
Knowing this, the sacrifice of Jesus and the love of God our Father in sending His Son to suffer shows a heavenly relationship, one in which can save us all if we're willing. The miracle of Mary was that God's Spirit came over her and that human which was born was God's own son, being born a mortal human being the same as us......what a great miracle!
Do you see Jesus' blood any differently?
