Week 2
The Promise of the Prophets
The long awaited Messiah, the King of the Jews, did not come to Earth as a physical warrior. He came in human form, as a babe … as we all began.
He was innocent, dependent and helpless … yet he was the also the Savior of the world.
This historic Christian doctrine of the divinity of Christ does not simply mean that Jesus is like God.
D. Elton Trueblood
It is far more radical than that. It means that God is like Jesus.
The mystery of this all human, all God birth can muddle the most level of heads. It leaves the most brilliant wondering. It confounds any who dare to pause and consider a babe to be the divine. One cannot entertain this thought without a hallelujah reverberating through our souls.
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6
