The [[Bible]] tells us that [[Jesus]] is [[God]] in human flesh ([[John 1:1]] and [[John 1:14]]). This doctrine is called the hypostatic union and was especially defined by the [[Council of Chalcedon]] in 451 AD. Jesus is not half God and half man. He is fully divine and fully man. Understanding this completely is not possible in this life.
