8. How did Christ show from the Scriptures that the promised Saviour of the world must be both human and divine?

NOTE.- Another has aptly put this important truth concerning the union of the human and divine in Christ thus: "Divinity needed humanity that humanity might afford a channel of communication between God and man.
