6. God Revealed Through the Incarnation.
“God...
hath in these last days spoken to us by (in) his Son.” (Hebrews 1:2) The Son is the Logos, the human expression,
the manifestation, the communicator of God. He is “God manifest in the flesh.”
(1 Timothy 3:16) It is important to clearly
distinguish the dispensational character of our Lord’s earthly ministry, as it
was confined to the lost sheep of the house of Israel, but we should never let
this fact in any way make less meaningful to us the glorious Person who was
thus ministering. It is that same Person who so wonderfully manifested the love
and grace of God who is also our Savior and Head of the Body. In all other
cases of revelation God was communicating His thoughts to and through mere men:
in this last case it was God Himself in Christ speaking to man.
