According to the “World Book Dictionary” definition of the verb incarnate is “embody; to put into an actual form; realize.” The “Doubleday Dictionary” defines it as “to give bodily form to.” The idea is that to incarnate is to bring a person, a trait, or a truth to life. God chose to reveal Himself through the life of Jesus Christ!

How incredible to think that God in the flesh, began His life as a baby. . .born into humble surroundings. . . completely dependent upon Mary and Joseph. But, that baby grew up and lived out God’s purpose and returned to the Father. . . “After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” (NIV) Hebrews 1:3
