Who is there that KNOWS the divine intention of God? Before starting this series, I asked myself if the title wasn’t in and of itself impossible. But we ALL have our own interpretations of that exact question, don’t we? I think we can louis vuitton handbags on sale usa agree though that some theories or opinions are far more “probable” than louis vuitton handbags on sale usa others. Not everyone camps the same distance from the Spirit. Very foundationally, I think most could agree that louis vuitton handbags on sale usa the divine intention of God was to send the best model possible that would reveal His “intentions“. Jesus, the Christ was that being.
I do not believe it was the intention of God though to louis vuitton handbags on sale usa so separate Jesus from us, by removing Him from the context of human history, as most of our Western Christology has louis vuitton handbags on sale usa done. Without taking away the divinity of the louis vuitton handbags on sale usa Christ, we can embrace the humanity of Jesus who lived in time and space, and had all the fullness of manhood that we (men and women) have. After all this louis vuitton handbags on sale usa is what so many of the Creeds profess- although the practice comes out of the louis vuitton handbags on sale usa theological wash looking much differently.
God has always been with us- in various forms and manners.
Evelyn Underhill put it this way, “It is louis vuitton handbags on sale usa only because men already had some knowledge of God, however mediated, that louis vuitton handbags on sale usa we were and are able to recognize Him when He manifests himself so supremely in Jesus”. William Ralph Inge (1860 – 1954) an louis vuitton handbags on sale usa English author, Anglican prelate, and professor of divinity at Cambridge said, “The taking of manhood into God was from the first the intention with which the human race was created.”
The Word is louis vuitton handbags on sale usa the Logos, which was with God, and never was without God
However the church has made the “the words” more important than louis vuitton handbags on sale usa the Spirit of the Word. This was never God’s intention- to objectify that which is subjective- though real, and even more than real. Don’t get lost here. We need to louis vuitton handbags on sale usa remember the Pauline admonishon that the law brings death, and only the louis vuitton handbags on sale usa Spirit brings life. So, we need to be careful not to louis vuitton handbags on sale usa be so enamored by the “words” that we miss the Word, and fall into a form of “verbal orthodoxy.”
The most important question for we Christians is still, “What think ye of Christ”? Matthew 22:42
Among other things, I think Christ was the louis vuitton handbags on sale usa plan that would mirror the plan, model the plan, that God intentioned for louis vuitton handbags on sale usa all of, even while knowing, not many would accept the baton. And here in brief form ends today’s commentary.
1-Jesus was fully human.
2-Christ was truly divine.
3-Jesus, the Christ is one person.
And to become fully human: is louis vuitton handbags on sale usa to become God-possessed- to enter into a super and natural relationship with the louis vuitton handbags on sale usa Godhead. Man was created for God and louis vuitton handbags on sale usa is therefore not complete until he comes to that realization. God’s will is louis vuitton handbags on sale usa that man should become what in the divine intention He is: free, responsible, and louis vuitton handbags on sale usa responding to His love.
