My brothers and
my sisters, once again I retake this subject for we be approaching the
Christmas day and I believe that that would belong edifying for all to us.
Therefore I chose the same text of last Sunday at night and I will make some
placements of other biblical texts. We will begin speaking that in Jesus God if
turned one of us. Or be: God assumed real and totally the human form in his son
Jesus Cristo.
But was where
Jesus Cristo before? We believed that Jesus always existed with the Father. We had
faith in Jesus' preexistence, God Almighty Son that was embodied in Nazareth's
man. For us to prove that are going for the Word of God in Genesis, 1:26 where
the verb to do appears in the plural. See: God when doing the man says: Let us
make the man and no, I make the man. How do we do? Who were the ones what did? God
and his Son Jesus Christ. Does the word "do" therefore? Was Jesus
there? Yes. He was always as Father. When Jesus was embodied was God entering
in the time and in the space to look for the man that had fallen. In fact, God
always looked for communion with the man that had done. I would say that before
the fall God already communicated with the man. God spoke to the man. So much
that to the man to fall he hides, but God as always comes to speak with him. He
calls several times in moments different from the day (breeze of the day). Is
clear that God never left the man. It was with the man before the sin, when he
sinned and after he sinned. Yes. But
Savior is Jesus Cristo. I ask again: Where was Jesus in all that time? To
answer we are going to John's Gospel, Chapter 1:1-3. Who was in the beginning
with God? Jesus. Jesus was the verb, the Word (he Rem of the Greek) Word in action.
That "Verb" can be substituted by Logos. But the one what is Logos?
Logos is the Word in action and that it transforms the Chaos and Cosmoses.
Cosmoses are the beautiful, beautiful, and organized. Of cosmoses it comes the
word cosmetics. Products for beauty. But the one what is Chaos? It is the world
before being organized. Chaotic it wants to say disorganized. Therefore Logos
of God (his Jesus son) it was present in the creation. And the biblical text
says that all of the things were made by Him and without Him anything that it
was done if he did. Him who? Jesus Christ.
Therefore the verb to do it is in the plural; let’s do us the man. But
and the possessive pronoun? How is it? Is also in the plural? Yes it is. Our
image, our similarity. Jesus was present in the action of the creation.
Therefore we called the entrance of God in the world through incarnation Jesus.
Our God stopped being only a Spirit that hovered on the waters and it was made
meat. See John. 1:14. John's Gospel doesn't mention the manager, like Mathews
and Luck, but they speaks about the entrance of God in the men's world to
rescue them in a more philosophical and theological way. It is still plus, he
gives us clear Idea that in Jesus God it is meat, it is concrete, tangible. It
can be played, we can be hot of his body. In Christ God lived the human
experience fully. It suffered hunger, fatigue, pain and he became mortal. Another incredible experience of Jesus after
the resurrection was when he arrived the disciples close and he asked if they
had something to eat. See Luck chapter twenty-four, verses thirty six to forty tree.
Pay attention. Jesus calls them to feel him and he says: I am me even. Ban that
a spirit neither has meat nor bones as it bans that I have. That everything
happened after the resurrection. Jesus was already in his/her glorified body.
But it continued and it continues being body. When it was high to the heights
the disciples saw his body arise until disappearing among the clouds. The
angels told them: This Jesus that was subject to the Skies among you will come
back in the same way as you saw to go up. Brothers and sisters feel that:
"In the same way”. Carrying physically, in body.
The sense of
the word Emanuel that wants to say: God with us acquires very more value when
we thought about all this. God with us is much more than among us. It is God
assuming our full humanity personally to bring us his salvation plan.
Brothers and
sisters for all this commemorate Christmas thinking about its Real
meaning. Christmas is not only parties
and presents. Nor new car or even encounter of families. That can and it should
happen. But Christmas is much more than all this. It is always God with us
looking for us from the Eden. Hallelujah! Amen.
