John 1:14
The Word Actually Became Flesh
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.
Philippians 2:5-13 (KJV)
God Becomes Man
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
1 Timothy 3:16
Mystery of God
16 Beyond all question, the mystery from which true godliness springs is great:
He appeared in the flesh,
was vindicated by the Spirit,
was seen by angels,
was preached among the nations,
was believed on in the world,
was taken up in glory.
St. Paul and St. John both tell us that God became flesh, and that God became a Man...His name was and is Jesus Christ...Jesus is the Messiah that God sent to us...Jesus fulfills the Old Testament Scripture...He was the anointed one the Prophets and Moses wrote about...
