The Chalcedonian Statement on the Incarnation

The Chalcedonian statement provides a convenient summary of the essential facts which we must all keep in mind when we attempt to penetrate still further into the mystery of the incarnation. Dr. Craig: We are created in God's likeness and image. So we have that divine nature if we choose to align ourselves to God, and so we can live out that likeness and images. But because we have not chosen that route to align ourselves as Jesus has completely aligned with God, so his human nature is submissive to his divine nature where we are the other way around. And we all have the potential. That's why he's the first fruit.
