Christian Song | "Christ Is the Incarnate God Himself" | Eastern Lightning

The incarnation of God means God appears and works in the flesh. He must first be flesh, flesh with normal humanity. The implication of incarnation is that God lives and works in the flesh.

It means the essence of God Himself has become a man and flesh. Christ is the incarnate God Himself, the flesh donned by the Spirit of God, different from any man of flesh. He embodies the Spirit of God.

II

His humanity, normal and real, sustains His acts in the flesh. His divinity, complete and unique, carries out the work of God. Both divinity and humanity submit to the will of the Father. Christ's essence is Spirit and divine. It is the essence of God. Christ is the incarnate God Himself, the flesh donned by the Spirit of God, different from any man of flesh. He embodies the Spirit of God.

III

Words spoken by God's incarnate flesh are the Spirit's expression of His own work. The flesh has not experienced it but still expresses His being. Through the flesh, people know what God is. They see His disposition and the work He's done. He's a person with God's essence, above all men and those who do God's work.

IV

Among those with human bodies like His, among those who have humanity, only He's incarnate God Himself. All others are human beings made by God. Christ is the incarnate God Himself, the flesh donned by the Spirit of God, different from any man of flesh. He embodies the Spirit of God. He embodies the Spirit of God.
