Can We Say That God Is Also Human?

Question:

Can we say that God is also human because of Jesus even though the Father and Holy Spirit are not human?

Answer:

While I understand why you are drawing that connection it does ultimately fall short. If Tom has dual nationalities of Canadian and Russian we cannot say that Canadians are Russians or that Russians are Canadians.  All we can say is that Tom is both Russian and Canadian.

Similarly we can only say that Jesus is both divine and human, we cannot say that the human is divine or that the divine is human.
