THE INCARNATION— STUNNING!

“Consider Jesus, the Apostle and high priest of our confession,” Hebrews 3:1  “Apostle” means sent one. 


There is so much more to take in about the Incarnation of Jesus Christ.  Here is a suggestion: Pick up on the Lord’s identity as THE Apostle by reading all the gospel instances where Jesus speaks of being sent into the world by the Father, and bless and praise Him!  

For instance, “And Jesus cried out and  said, ‘Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but in Him who sent me.  And whoever sees me sees Him who sent Me.  I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in Me may not remain in darkness” (John 12:44-46).

Please, dear Lord, may I never tire of this stunning truth— God sent You to show Himself and His glory, and You came to rescue sinners!
