["What about?" Wednesday] Robby Lashua of Stand to Reason: What about Luke 2:52? Is there an Evolving Christology within the Gospels?

Kingdom Culture Conversations

At first glance, Luke 2:52 seems harmless enough.
"Jesus increased in wisdom, in stature, and in favor with God and man."
But, wait a minute...
Jesus increased in wisdom? In other words, the pre-incarnate Word from John 1 "grew in wisdom" over the course of time? How? Or, Colossians 1's pre-existent, uncreated God-in-the-flesh became more wise?
Further, how did Jesus increase in favor with God? Is Luke suggesting that at one point God favored Jesus less and then, at another point, He favored Him more? How does that work?
And, so the argument goes: as the Gospels were written, the early church had a developing agenda for Jesus and therefore, over time, they began to exaggerate who He was and His significance. Is it possible that there are internal clues within Scripture that reveal an evolving Christology?
