Anhypostasis is satanic? "a spirit of envy and jealous" that "denies Jesus as a human person" vs Philippians 2:6-11 Christ's Hymn

I'm not saying I agree with this - only it's a fascinating view.

 AI:

The term
anhypostasis (Greek for "non-personal") refers to the theological concept that Jesus' human nature is not a separate, independent person but is united with the divine person of the Son. While Philippians doesn't use the word "anhypostasis," it describes the basis for this doctrine, particularly in Philippians 2:6-8, where the eternal Son of God "emptied himself, taking the form of a servant" and "was found in human form". This supports the idea that the divine Son is the one person who assumed a complete, but anhypostatic, human nature

 The result: Jesus is one person with two natures—fully divine and fully human—united without confusion, mingling, or separation. This is known as the hypostatic union....

The famous all-church Council of Chalcedon in 451 confirmed with clarity that Jesus is “one person” with “two natures” (full divinity and full humanity), but after the council, years of further discussion ensued. How is it that one person can have two natures? When the Son of God took on humanity, did that not mean that he was taking to his divine person a second (human) person as part of that humanity? Is he not two persons, if he as two natures?

Enter the theological term anhypostasis. The Greek word hypostasis had come to refer in the early church discussions to what we’d call personhood—whether in the Trinity or in the two-natured person of Jesus—and so the negating an- prefix was added to signify that, considered on its own (apart from his divinity), Jesus’ humanity is impersonal.

 just like Corporate Legal Personhood!!! Wow.
