THE WORD BECAME FLESH
1. To show us...
QUOTE - Frederick Dale Bruner
“The only problem with the monument was that its pinnacled hero was so high that viewers below could not see what the honoured admiral looked like. So, Dr. McCullough explained…a six-foot replica of Lord Nelson atop the pinnacle was placed at eye level beneath the pinnacle in order to give sightseers the opportunity of seeing the exalted figure close up. This, the pastor concluded thoughtfully, is an illustration of what God did for the human race when he gave Jesus. The high, invisible God came down low, in the eye-level Jesus, his Son, so that we could see what God is like.”

2. To give us...
QUOTE - R. Kent Hughes
“Grace just keeps coming, but I doubt if any of us have as much grace as God intended.”
“Grace just keeps coming, but I doubt if any of us have as much grace as God intended.”
QUOTE - Martin Luther
“This spring is inexhaustible, it is full of grace and truth from God, it never loses anything, no matter how much we draw, but it remains an infringed fountain of all grace and truth; the more you draw from it, the more abundantly it gives of the water that springs into eternal life. Just as the sun is not darkened by the whole world enjoying its light, and could, indeed, light up ten worlds…so is Christ, our Lord, an infinite source of all grace, so that if the whole world would draw enough grace and truth from it to make the world all angels, yet it would not lose a drop; the fountain always runs over, full of grace.”
