The Christmas story never ceases to amaze me.
God the Eternal, God the Creator, God the Sustainer, God the Most Holy One, takes on human flesh, enters our fractured, mortal, created, dependant humanity in order to redeem it and present it back to God.
As Charles Wesley expressed it, "God contracted to a span, incomprehensibly made man."
No wonder sects and cults find it difficult to accept .. but God's truth it is. Staggering truth. Essential truth.
An as the writer to the Hebrews says "He had to be made like his brothers in every respect."
