Fully Man & Fully God
Jesus not only is fully man & fully God but He must be both in that full capacity to accomplish everything He must for our salvation. To deny His humanity is to not have a stand-in for humanity. To deny His Godhood is to not have the ability to pay the penalty for all His Sheep and to be able to take on the wrath of God.
In The Bible, we see the regular way that Jesus operates. Yes, with signs and miracles and wonders but as a man. And yet, the universe still operates, and all things that were made by Him and held together by Him still go round and round. In His Earthly work, He is obedient to the Law, He fully justifies, and He is fully righteous. He is tempted in a way that others would fail and in that temptation God experiences the direct knowledge of suffering and temptation. And yet, He does not sin. He redeems us but He is our sympathetic Redeemer!
