Was God dead for three days when Jesus was crucified?
Or was only a part of God dead for those three days?
So, for three days, there wasn't a Trinity. What existed during that three days: the Duality?
Did Jesus have God's DNA along with Mary's. I realized Jesus' DNA may have been unique. In fact, all humans' DNA is unique. The question is: was Jesus' DNA a combination of God's DNA and Mary's DNA.
If God has DNA, perhaps he has replicated himself and now there are multiple gods.

This sounds MYSTERIOUSLY like the same discussion I had on another forum, just the other day.
“Did the entire, whole complete God die in Christ on Good Friday?”
Basically, the answer is "who cares? Jesus died for ALL the Sins of Mankind"

How can God be dead?
God is One! with three different Entities so No God was not partly Dead
Uh yes there was a Trinity as if God is 3 entities in 1 then how can there not be a Trinity.
Jesus's DNA could have been but why does it matter? even if it was he probably only had Mary's DNA as God is Spirit and would therefore not have DNA per se
Ummm No

No, God cannot die.
Or was only a part of God dead for those three days?
Non-sequitor.

Non sequitor.

Yes, it could have been a combination. We don't know what happened at conception, but for Jesus to be fully man and fully God, He had to have both the nature of God and man.

No. Why would God replicate Himself? He manifests in 3 ways, Father, Son and Spirit, but is still one God.

They would all be the same God though-in the same way that the three strangers who visited Abraham and Sarah were the same God.

I The answer is Christ's humanity was dead for three days and as Christ is also divine, thus God experienced this death also. This issue was briefly touched upon within the thread at
http://discussions.godandscience.org/vi ... .php?t=802. As I write there, Christ was God with human form, and all Christians would agree that He died a physical human death. An understanding of the
communicatio idiomatum (
google it), where both the divine and human natures are ascribed to the one person of Jesus would be helpful in understanding this issue further.

This has been fully answered at
http://discussions.godandscience.org/vi ... 2&start=45, which was closed since you were taking it nowhere. I do not appreciate you trying to start the same thing up again without having first consulted a moderator since that thread was closed for a reason.

It could not possibly have been a combination unless God actually has DNA. This would necessitate that He has a body identical to ours. I really hope I don't ever see any self declared Christian going in that direction.

I guess you have to look at it from a Time point of view. God in our linear timeline (i.e. Jesus) did die. But because God exists outside of our timeline as well he was able to see himself die and ressurect himself.
That is the way I think about it.
Did God die - Yes.
For those of you who say God can't die, then consider this - God can do anything and dying must certainly be in is range of abilities.
God Bless

Only one must evaluate whether "logically impossible" things, such as creating a round circle, are real "things" that God can do. Is God dying only to take up his own life again logically possible? If so, I believe one is reasonably obliged to provide some reasons as to how it is possible.
Something important to note is that God cannot lie according to Hebrews 6:18 which reads, "
God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged." Why is it impossible for God to lie? Because for God to do so would be to go against His own nature, something logically impossible. And the things that are logically impossible, aren't "things" but really "non-entities".
