| 0:42.5 | First up today, let's go to Brandon calling in from Canada. |
| 0:45.7 | Brandon, great to hear from you. |
| 0:46.7 | What's your question for Adriel? |
| 0:50.2 | Pastor Adriel, I was actually just wondering if you could explain how Christians understand the two wills of Christ as being both fully divine and fully human. |
| 1:03.0 | Excellent question. I love talking about Christology, the doctrine of Christ. |
| 1:08.0 | And this was at the heart, Brandon, of a debate that happened in the |
| 1:13.6 | ancient church, a heresy known as the monothelite heresy, mono being one, fellow will, |
| 1:21.4 | I will. And so the idea that Christ only had one will, or did he have two wills? Did he have a human |
| 1:27.3 | will and a divine will? |
| 1:29.5 | And this question actually gets at the very heart of even the doctrine of salvation. And part of the reason why the church affirmed and needed to affirm that Christ had two wills that he really did have a truly human will is because the will, the human will, is a part of who we are as God's creatures. |

| 1:50.7 | if the word didn't assume a truly human nature, |
| 1:54.3 | human will included, |
| 1:56.0 | then could he really redeem us? |
| 1:58.2 | And so it wasn't just speculating about random stuff. It was, no, this gets to the very doctrine of salvation also, because what he did not assume, if he didn't assume true humanity, which includes a human will, then he can't really save true humans. And so you see, theologically, why this is so important. |
| 2:19.0 | And there were a number of passages that people went to in order to say, |
| 2:22.6 | no, it's clear that Jesus, the word incarnate had a human will and a divine will. |
