Incarnation to Resurrection
#RAD #ATEND G-d (Christ) #IIC714
Incarnation to Resurrection roughly three and one-half
years, in 12 weeks, Sunday through Friday (six days) per week
Day Four of Eighty-four:
Today we will read how Wise Men still follow Him! We also read of the first of three parts of the “The Slaughter of the Innocents”[1], and though the secular world tries, and tries very hard, to convince us that these events did not happen, those of us who know G-d, know they are indeed fact. We are introduced to a rather jovial, elated even Zechariah who declares in song that “…the G-d of Israel;.. came and set his people free…”.
We also read of Joseph and Mary’s trek to Bethlehem for the census where we are first introduced to G-d Incarnate (G-d in Human form), the baby Jesus, laying wrapped in a blanket, in a manger. Today’s reading concludes with some early insights into how G-d (Christ Jesus) came to his own people, but they didn’t want him.

“No Jesus, NO peace” and yet, “Know Jesus, KNOW peace”
How does one get to “know” Jesus? Simple, invite Him into your heart, as Jesus
says: “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and
opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.” [Revelation 3:20 NIV]
How can be assured that this Jesus stuff means anything? Well because the Bible tells us so, as the
Apostle Paul wrote:
“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is
Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be
saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it
is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.” [Romans 10:9-10 NIV]
And for those of you who say to me, I
can’t be bothered reading the Bible, “it’s confusing” or “it’s a waste of my time”,
may I draw your attention to what the Bible says about wisdom: “The fear of the
LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is
understanding.” [Proverbs 9:10 NIV]
If nothing else, PLEASE read two chapters
from the Bible – (don’t own one, sorry NO excuse, if you’re reading this, you
can access this: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%203:16&version=NIV) John 3 and John
14!
John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the
world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal life.”
And John 14:6 says: “Jesus answered, “I am
the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through
me.”
Well that’s it, that’s Da Bauz’s Take on, “Incarnation
to Resurrection, Day Four of Eighty-four” – this 10th day of January
