Scripture: John 1:14
Title: The Word Became Flesh
Introduction:
1. Jesus is what He is because He is God, and perfect.
His Word reveals Him, and change any of it to make Him more “understandable” are “explainable” and you do so to your peril.
He is God, and you come before Him you better have it right.
2. God sent forth His Son into the world to redeem them that are under the curse and condemnation of the Law.
But He must be believed.
Be careful to believe what X really is, lest your Christ be found imperfect and unacceptable to God.

No concept.
