Why It Matters
An eternal God became flesh combining the divine and the human into one being in the person of Jesus Christ. Fully God and fully human. But why? Why did Jesus lay aside the glory of heaven to walk among us?
Could one reason be that He came to reveal God to us in a way humanity had never encountered before? Jesus said, ‘Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father’ (John 14:9). Before Jesus came to earth, God was revealed to His people through leaders, prophets and scriptures. Suddenly Jesus walked among us, and God was accessible to all who encountered Him.
Jesus reflected the heart of God and revealed His compassionate heart for the sick and the marginalised. Knowing someone cares for the sick because it’s written in the holy scriptures and then seeing someone physically reach out and hold those rejected and broken by the world are two very different things. To experience and encounter God for yourself – that changes everything. Suddenly humanity’s understanding of who God was changed irrevocably.
When Jesus came and walked the earth, He enabled an abstract God to make sense in a physical world. Suddenly there’s a way we can understand and relate to God that we never had before.
God walked on earth as a human. He gets it and that matters.
