# First Hevetic Confession ## Article 11 - Of Jesus Christ and that which is done by Christ This Christ is the true Son of God, true God, and true man. At the appointed time he took upon himself the whole man, made of soul and body, possessing in one individual person two unmixed natures, that he might restore to life us who were dead, and made us heirs of God, and so became our brother. [John 16](/get-passage/John+16); [Galatians 4](/get-passage/Galatians+4); [Hebrews 2](/get-passage/Hebrews+2); [2 John 1](/get-passage/2+John+1). He took the most holy flesh of the Godhead in union with ours, similar in all respects (with the exception of sin only, since it was necessary to be an unblemished sacrifice), born of the untouched Virgin Mary, cooperating with the Holy Spirit, and delivered it to death for the atonement of all sin. [Luke 2](/get-passage/Luke+2); [Hebrews 5](/get-passage/Hebrews+5); [1 John 2](/get-passage/1+John+2). In order that we might have a full and perfect hope and confidence of immortality, he placed his flesh, which was raised from the dead, in heaven at the right hand of his Almighty Father. [1 Corinthians 15](/get-passage/1+Corinthians+15); [Acts 1](/get-passage/Acts+1). There he sits, triumphant over death, sin, and hell; the conqueror and leader, our head, our true high priest at the right hand of the Father, defending our cause and pleading it perpetually, until he fashions us into the likeness to which we were created.2 [Romans 8](/get-passage/Romans+8); [Ephesians 1](/get-passage/Ephesians+1); [Ephesians 4](/get-passage/Ephesians+4). We thus wait for him who will come at the end of all ages, the true and just judge, who will pronounce the verdict on all flesh, which will be raised before that judgment, and who will lift up the godly above the heavens, and condemn the ungodly body and soul to eternal destruction. [Daniel 7](/get-passage/Daniel+7); [John 5](/get-passage/John+5). As he alone is our mediator, intercessor, sacrifice, and the same High Priest, our Lord, and our King, so we recognize him alone, and we believe with all our hearts that he is our reconciliation, redemption, sanctification, atonement, wisdom, protection, and our only deliverer. We refuse all other means of life and salvation, except this Christ alone. [Romans 3](/get-passage/Romans+3); [1 Corinthians 1](/get-passage/1+Corintians+1); [1 Timothy 2](/get-passage/1+Timothy+2); [Hebrews 7](/get-passage/Hebrews+7).
