The Hypostatic Union

Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism
Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share
Life Today.
Something I have been pondering lately is the
matchless, never-ending, wonderful love of God. As we
celebrate this season of Jesus' birth, I’m reminded
that the God who created the universe—and us!—gave up
His glorious throne to step into this world as a man.
Now don't get me wrong—Jesus is God. He’s always been
one hundred percent so. At the same time, He came to
earth, born as a baby... He is also one hundred percent
man. This is known as the hypostatic union. And when He
was born, His glory was veiled. It must have been quite
difficult for Him to humbly take on flesh, but Jesus
did it out of His great love for us, and His desire for
God’s glory. He chose the road to the cross because He
knew His perfect life must be the sacrifice for our
imperfect ones. He came to live beside us and share how
we can have eternal life. For more, visit share life
