  • The theology of Christmas: The Incarnation

  • Albert Einstein’s acknowledgment of a divine order contrasts with his rejection of the personal God of the Bible, setting the stage for the profound truth of John 1:14, which declares that “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” This verse captures the miracle of the incarnation: God becoming man through Jesus Christ, who revealed divine glory, brought grace and truth, and provided redemption for humanity.
