Ben,

Perhaps I am mistaken, but I think in that quote the "Luther" being referred to was Martin Luther King, and not the ex-Roman Catholic, Martin Luther?

But more to the point, the "confusion of the two natures", contrary to who wrote the article/critique of Martin Luther King, King clearly did NOT accept the teaching of Chalcedon which specifically says that there is no "confusion" of the two natures of Christ; i.e., the divine and the human. You can read the Creed for yourself, which I am confident you will be able to fully comprehend.


The Chalcedon Creed


Therefore, following the holy fathers, we all with one accord teach men to acknowledge one and the same Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, at once complete in Godhead and complete in manhood, truly God and truly man, consisting also of a reasonable soul and body; of one substance with the Father as regards his Godhead, and at the same time of one substance with us as regards his manhood; like us in all respects, apart from sin; as regards his Godhead, begotten of the Father before the ages, but yet as regards his manhood begotten, for us men and for our salvation, of Mary the Virgin, the God-bearer; one and the same Christ, Son, Lord, Only-begotten, recognized in two natures, without confusion, without change, without division, without separation; the distinction of natures being in no way annulled by the union, but rather the characteristics of each nature being preserved and coming together to form one person and subsistence, not as parted or separated into two persons, but one and the same Son and Only-begotten God the Word, Lord Jesus Christ; even as the prophets from earliest times spoke of him, and our Lord Jesus Christ himself taught us, and the creed of the fathers has handed down to us.



As far as an earthly family being representative of the Trinity...... I think that is total fantasy and the product of men's vivid imagination. Okay, so that was a little "in your face". But I do not find any justification for such a novel idea in the Bible.

In His Grace,
