Deep dives

The Self-Awareness of Jesus

The podcast discusses the nature of Jesus' self-awareness regarding his divinity. It clarifies that the Catholic Church's doctrine, established at the Council of Chalcedon, asserts that Christ is one divine person with two distinct natures: divine and human. This means that Jesus was fully divine from the moment of his incarnation and did not gradually acquire or become aware of his divinity over time. Alternative views, such as adoptionism or Nestorianism, which suggest a development in Jesus' awareness of his divine nature, are not accepted as part of Catholic teaching.
