"2nd man in heaven" mentioned in 1 Corinthians 15:47

  

An art depicting Lord Jesus descends from heaven to judge the whole mankind

Let's read the said verse:

1 Corinthians 15:47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.

This could be the best or perhaps one of the best arguments being used by INC religion 1914 founded by Felix Manalo and Jehovah's Witnesses to prove that the Lord Jesus Christ is ONLY A MAN.

In this artircle, I will post my refutations:

FIRST: This verse for me is also one of the best proofs that Lord Jesus is God. We must know that the term LORD as in capital L in the Bible as we can read in Psalms 100:3 is God.

So the second man from heaven which is the Lord means that he is God too.

SECOND: The second man in the verse points out to the spiritual and incorruptible body which the Christians will inherit when they will be resurrected from their graves in order to be with God in the new heaven and new earth where righteousness dwells (read 1 Corinthians 15:42-44)

This is the reason why Apostle Saint Paul said in verse 15:45 "And so it is written" meaning the second man who is the Lord from heaven has also spiritual and incorruptible body. You can read it in Philippians 3:20-21 it says:

For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

THIRD AND LAST: Since INC 1914 religion and Jehovah's Witnesses disagrees that a God cannot transform into a man and they quote Hosea 11:9 it says there that GOD IS NOT MAN. I can say that you cant read there that a God cannot transform into a human being from being a God. Jesus Christ who is also a God became man as you can read in verses John 1:1-3, 14 and Philippians 2:6-8

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 

1:2 The same was in the beginning with God. 

1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 

2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 

2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

In fact, It was his Father who prepared a body for his Son (who is also a God ofcourse) when he will enter into the human world.

Hebrews 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: 

The greatest proof that Jesus is God who became a man is you can read it in 1 Timothy 3:16

1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

CONCLUSION: The verse which the INCs and Jehovah's Witnesses use to prove that the Lord Jesus is only a man also proves that our Lord is also a God
