I probably could have worded that better, though.
When people use words like "who" it's understood as a person and "which" as a thing (like a body)


So when you say "When I say "son", I'm specifically referring to the humanity of Jesus (who had a definite beginning).", it sounds like Unitarianism (2 persons God and the Son who is just a man) or Nestorianism (turning the two natures of Jesus into two persons, God and man, Father and Son)

  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
