'Truly God, truly man' is more precise than 'fully God, fully man'

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 23) 00:10:42 – 00:11:42

Mike prefers Chalcedonian-style precision: two natures in one person, rather than '100% God / 100% man' language which is logically incoherent.

The phrase 'fully God' is sloppy because if all Jesus is is God, there is no room for him to be man. '100% God and 100% man' is also incoherent — 100% being God leaves no room for humanity. 'Truly God and truly man' (language echoing Chalcedon 451 AD) is preferable: he possesses the genuine nature of God AND the genuine nature of man — two natures in one person (hypostatic union).

κεφαλή (kephale) — Logos Clippings (Cheryl Schatz)

A curated collection of Logos Bible Software clippings compiled by Cheryl Schatz examining the Greek word κεφαλή (kephale) and Hebrew רֹאשׁ (rosh). The clippings draw from lexicons, encyclopedias, commentaries, and academic journals to argue that "source/origin" is the primary metaphorical meaning of kephale rather than "authority/leader," with implications for interpreting 1 Corinthians 11, Ephesians 5, and Colossians 1.
