Status Updates From On the Incarnation: De Inca...

A recent quote that stood out to me, “He took our body, + not only so, He took it directly from a spotless, stainless virgin without the agency of human father-a pure body, untainted by intercourse with man. He, the mighty one, the artificer of all, Himself prepared this body in the virgin as a temple for Himself, and took it for His very own, as the instrument through which He was known + in which He dwelt.”

The final section refuting gentiles argues for the method of God’s revelation being the incarnation and why it was the best method, why the taking upon of a human nature and body was necessary for ridding creation of corruption, how the Gospel has changed culture and spirituality, and how far reaching it is. He also cites how oracles, magic, and demonic activity ceased with the preaching of Christ.

The C. S. Lewis introduction never gets old.
