His divine nature doesn't change, simply his abilities are limited for a time/reason. An example from Christianity is Christ, when he took the form of a man, he was able to suffer pain, which is not something Holy God is normally understood to do. But he limited his divinity for a moment. It doesn't change the fact that he could've broken free from that form at any moment, but he chose not to do so, because he had salvation in mind. (Philippians 2:1-11 as an example of this) The key word here is chose. He's God after all. If we can limit our abilities for a moment, for a reason (sometimes love), then with even greater reason so could he.
My thoughts activate my knowledge. Though I may know something, I can control my thoughts so as to remove that concern for another though, at a specific moment. I may know that my best friend cheated on me, but I can put the thought that reminds me of that aside so I can move on and continue to love them. |
Activating knowledge =/= having knowledge. Just because you don't think of something you know, that doesn't mean you don't know it anymore.
Just because you stop thinking of your friend cheating doesn't mean you'll forget it. The knowledge will be there for the near future and you can not instantly rid yourself of the knowledge.
