Please comment below and let me know what you think about the transcript.

Well, I think when you reduce the coming of Jesus, everything from his incarnation to his enthronement, to something that was going to affect humanity after our physical death, I don't know I just think, you're robbing the whole purpose of the coming of Jesus.

You're limiting it. You're narrowing it down. Not that there is not an eternal everlasting effect, but there is also an application today. There is an influence and an application that is going on today as well.

Because we're thinking about why did Jesus come?

Yes. Yeah, I think there's several things that's going on in the in the storyline.

And here's God becoming a man. The word of God, the word made flesh. God is becoming a man. The God who created all things is now entering into all things and he is becoming one with creation, one with humanity. And and as such, he is beginning this process of reconciling all things back to himself.

And in the doing of that, he is going to reveal God from this perspective of the son and the father and the spirit.

There's this revelation that's about to unfold, but it's going to be in a man. And it's going to start just like every other human started in a sense as a baby. Now, God's the Father. And I realize there's something unique about the birth of Jesus there. I get that part of it.

But at the same time, he's still going to be born of a woman. And and he's going to grow up as any other human grew up and developed as a human. But yet at the same time, he is God. And that's hard to comprehend.

Yes! Even think about that. I like to think of in the beginning when God formed man of the dust and breathed into his nostrils, the breath of life, man became a living soul. God created man and what you're talking about then became that that He created.

Yes! Yeah! So that he could not only communicate Himself to us, revealing Himself to us, I believe, but so that He could be one of us, and this is what I'm hard on, is that He is the last Adam! He gathered up all other Adams, and we are in Him just like we were in the first Adam. We all descended from him. But Jesus is the last Adam!

Yes, he gathered us up into Himself. So yeah, the first was a prototype of the last, a picture of the One that was to come!
