1John 4:1-6
John emphasizes very strongly in our text the significance that Jesus came in the flesh. He did not come to us as an angel, Superman or Batman; Jesus is more incredible than the Hulk, more super than Superman, He is lot nicer than Miss Isis. He has more Scooby than Scooby-doo, because He loves me and you. One may ask if Jesus was a human being, what exactly makes Him any different than other spiritual men with a spiritual message? Jesus is the human face of God because He was born of a virgin conceived in the womb of Mary by the Holy Ghost. Jesus is the whole story of mankind wrapped up in flesh. Father God knew we would never figure out how to get to heaven, so He came as Jesus to show us how to get there.
You see, Jesus being born of the flesh is more than just a man taking a journey to the cross as a sacrificial Lamb; Everything about Jesus from the manger to the tomb is significant as to what makes Him the Christ; the anointed one of God.
