If we do not think of baptism
on the scale of the Great Flood
and Noah’s Ark, then our thinking
is too small.

The Incarnation is
the Transfiguration
of Everything.
#Christmas #Incarnation #Inclusion #inChrist #AllThingsOne #AllThingsNew #Transfiguration #TheGospel #BeautifulGospel #TheGospelTwitter
In the beginning
was the Imagination,
and the Imagination
was with God,
and the Imagination
was God ...
And the Imagination
bodied forth and made
His habitation in us.

Through the Incarnation,
we become by Grace
what Christ is
by Nature.

In the Incarnation,
divine being united
with human being,
and changed the way
of being human.

Were it not for the Incarnation, by which Christ united divinity with humanity, we would all have ceased to exist. Indeed, we would never have begun to be.

The Incarnation
of Christ transforms
all of time and space.
For in Him, heaven is
united with earth,
and eternity with time,
even as divinity is
united with humanity.

In this Advent season, let the Light of the Crucified and Risen Christ penetrate the darkness of every human heart. He is the True Light, who gives Light to everyone in the world.
