Nowhere does the Bible ever declare that Jesus’ deity makes Him something more than a man or something other than a human. Scripture never allows the divine nature of Christ to overshadow or diminish His human nature

Phil Johnson
Phil Johnson (* 1953) ist ein US-amerikanischer reformiert-baptistischer Pastor, Buchlektor und leitender Direktor des Medienunternehmens Grace to You in Kalifornien. Er ist als langjähriger Mitarbeiter von John MacArthur, profunder Kenner von Charles Spurgeon sowie für sein streitbares Auftreten in theologischen und gesellschaftlichen Kontroversen bekannt. Für Bibelleser bietet er prägnante Zugänge zu historisch-calvinistischer Schriftauslegung, während seine scharfe Polemik und seine öffentlichen Einlassungen zu Missbrauchsvorwürfen im evangelikalen Raum polarisieren.
