THE MIRACLE OF THE INCARNATION - The angels must have been stunned to see the second member of the triune God become a human being. The baby born in that Bethlehem barn was God, and He was born to die. His death delivers us from our fear of death. His suffering on the cross atoned for our sins, allowing Him to understand and help us. And incredibly, the incarnation is permanent. Christ rose in a glorified human body that He’ll have forever. It’s not that Jesus suddenly stopped being a man after the ascension. No, the second member of the triune God will be a human being who reigns eternally on the New Earth. “But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us.” The miracle of the cross was made possible by the miracle of the incarnation. The angels must have been stunned to see the second member of the triune God become a human being. The baby born in that Bethlehem barn was God, and He was born to die. His death delivers us from our fear of death. His suffering on the cross atoned for our sins, allowing Him to understand and help us. And incredibly, the incarnation is permanent. Christ rose in a glorified human body that He’ll have forever. It’s not that Jesus suddenly stopped being a man after the ascension. No, the second member of the triune God will be a human being who reigns eternally on the New Earth. He was created from a mother whom He had created… He, the Word without whom all human eloquence is mute, wailed in a manger in mute infancy.

The Miracle of the Incarnation

.

The angels must have been stunned to see the second member of the triune God become a human being. The baby born in that Bethlehem barn was God, and He was born to die. His death delivers us from our fear of death. His suffering on the cross atoned for our sins, allowing Him to understand and help us. And incredibly, the incarnation is permanent. Christ rose in a glorified human body that He’ll have forever. It’s not that Jesus suddenly stopped being a man after the ascension. No, the second member of the triune God will be a human being who reigns eternally on the New Earth.

“But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us.” — Titus 3:4-5

 

The miracle of the cross was made possible by the miracle of the incarnation.

The angels must have been stunned to see the second member of the triune God become a human being.

The baby born in that Bethlehem barn was God, and He was born to die.

His death delivers us from our fear of death.

His suffering on the cross atoned for our sins, allowing Him to understand and help us.

And incredibly, the incarnation is permanent.

Christ rose in a glorified human body that He’ll have forever.

It’s not that Jesus suddenly stopped being a man after the ascension.

No, the second member of the triune God will be a human being who reigns eternally on the New Earth.

“He was created from a mother whom He had created… He, the Word without whom all human eloquence is mute, wailed in a manger in mute infancy.” — Augustine
