(Please note that in no way am I saying this is 100% Gospel truth. This is just my personal interpretation (susceptible to flaws), based on research and hopefully revelation, which I hope will help in some way…)

Essentially, the word hypostatic originates from the Greek: ὑπόστασις, {”[h]upostasis”},”hypostasis”, translated reality or person

So we know about the Incarnation… what about hypostatic union? Basically, it means that Jesus was the union of two natures (Divine and Human) in one hypostases (Reality, Form).

Arrgh! Heavy stuff! But wait, what on earth is anthropological hypostatic union?

Anthropology is the science and study of man. It comes from the Greek comb. form of ánthrōpos denoting “human being, man”.

The hypostatic union pertains to Christ having two natures in one form.

The anthropological hypostatic union pertains to us humans, born-again Christians, having two natures in one form.

Just as the hypostatic union was Christ coming down to take the form of a man, so the anthropological hypostatic union is man going up to become like Christ.

Just as Christ underwent Kenosis (Phil 2:7 “7 Instead, he gave up his divine privileges” (NLT) Strong’s G2758), even so, we must learn to put on the new (divine nature).

Just as boy Jesus, in his hypostatic union, had to increase in wisdom and stature, favour with God and men before he was released into ministry at the age of 30, even so, the Church of God, in our anthropological hypostatic union, will be increasing in wisdom and stature, favour with God and men even as we are poised to fully impact culture, society and the world.

Mark 12:30
And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.

1. We are not born stupid or smart, but with the potential to be intelligent.

2. Every time we study or use our brain, we make a connection or new pathway. (Scientific conclusion)

3. Intelligence is a result of thinking!

I felt that this week's services with Pastor Kent Munsey was really AWESOME!
Haha.

You may feel lonely and alone at times, feeling like no friend cares for you.. but God put those times in our lives as He also wants to spend time alone with us, like how you spend alone time with your close ones.
So when you feel lonely/alone, just look up and you'll find that God's there for you!
We can be alone, but never lonely! :)
