The incarnation takes everything we think we know about God and stands it on its head. But it’s not just that. Beyond the miracle and the mystery of the incarnation itself, there’s another incredibly important thing we need to see here. It’s about that little word ‘with’: Emmanuel is God WITH us. The incarnation isn’t just about the mystery of God becoming human. It’s about God becoming human so that he can be WITH us.
Matthew 1:18-25
Isaiah 7:14
