“Fully God, Fully Man” | Preparing for Sunday, December 18th, 2016

“Veiled in flesh the Godhead see, hail the incarnate Deity Pleased as man with man to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel.”

– Charles Wesley, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing


 

Sermon title for this Sunday: The Incarnation: Fully God, Fully Man

Sermon text: Matthew 1:18-25

Song to practice: “Joy Has Dawned”


Reflect:

“It is completely incomprehensible to us how God can reveal himself and to some extent make himself known in created beings: eternity in time, immensity in space, infinity in the finite, immutability in change, being in becoming, the all, as it were, in that which is nothing. This mystery cannot be comprehended; it can only be gratefully acknowledged. But mystery and self-contradiction are not synonymous.”

– Herman Bavinck
