I want us to look at our main passage today as a starting point for exploring the what is essentially a event we should never come to feel like we completely understand. On the one hand it is simple to explain. God entered into our world and became one of us. On the other hand the implications of that statement should arrest our thoughts. Why? Because we are human. Because we can perceive our own limits. We should marvel at what God did. We know if we put too much of anything into our bodies they essentially overload and die. Too much water and you drown. Too much heat and you die of dehydration or burning. Too much cold and you freeze to death. Too much electricity and your heart seizes up and you are electrocuted. The list could go on and on but I think you get the picture. So think about what the incarnation is putting before us. God the maker of the universe. The one who called our thermonuclear sun into existence with the word of His power on the fourth day and not only our sun but every sun and and every expression of power in the universe. The God whose power was not diminished in any way by the act of creating the universe entered into the womb of a young woman and became a holy embryo. He appeared to be a normal man but He contained within Himself all the power to sustain the universe. God entered into our world and became one of us just doesn’t do justice to the magnitude of what took place. It is the greatest hero story in the history of the world and it is true! Jesus contained within His human frame more power than all the suns in all the galaxies in the universe.
