Christ is the only man to ever know what child birth feels like."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Taking away the weirdness that is sexual reassignment, I would answer this is true. More importantly, he is the only one to know what your childbirth/heart attack/headache/heartache/depression, et.al truly feels like. At least that is my understanding (belief) in the infinite atonement.Originally posted by Moliere View PostChrist is the only man to ever know what child birth feels like.

If being Jesus requires feeling the discomfort I assume my wife felt when she squeezed out our 12 lb 7 oz son, I don't wanna walk in those steps. From where I stood it looked really uncomfortable!Originally posted by TripletDaddy View Postwhy is it important that Christ know what it feels like to give birth to a baby?
also, from a doctrinal standpoint, why wouldn't Heavenly Father also know what it feels like to have a baby? Why is Jesus the "only one?"Do Your Damnedest In An Ostentatious Manner All The Time!

I'm choosing to mostly ignore your fatuity here and instead overwhelm you with so much data that you'll maybe, just maybe, realize that you have reams to read on this subject before you can contribute meaningfully to any conversation on this topic.

I would assume anything Christ has felt/knows, Heavenly Father has also experienced. I'm not sure about the HG
Why is it necessary is dependent if Alma 7:11-13 is literal or figurative. Did Christ have to literally feel our pains, sickness, and temptations "in the flesh", so he could succor us, or is being omniscient enough?

I wonder if Jesus had a c-section or just a natural birth? Did he get an epidural?Originally posted by Goatnapper'96 View PostIf being Jesus requires feeling the discomfort I assume my wife felt when she squeezed out our 12 lb 7 oz son, I don't wanna walk in those steps.

What kind of questions are these? Of course he didn't have an epidural.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostI wonder if Jesus had a c-section or just a natural birth?

A hypothetical question for the Christlike: When shopping On Sunday, how many people do you see in church attire? My mom use to stop at the store on our way home from church almost every week, unless we were going out for dinner that night, of course.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostJesus has cheated on his fast before, apparently. he also skipped Church and went to Costco looking for pumpkin rolls.

I've been shopping a time or two on Sunday - typically picking up a prescription for a sick spouse or child.Originally posted by Art Vandelay View PostA hypothetical question for the Christlike: When shopping On Sunday, how many people do you see in church attire?

I love it when I run into fellow ward members, who like to say "caught ya!" when they seem me.
