God’s salvation came in the form of a man, all man and all God. Jesus was born of a woman and conceived by the Holy Spirit. We can accept or reject God’s gift. We are bought with a great price. Jesus was born, died and rose again as a sacrifice for mans’ sin and to overcome death once and for all. The great commission is to make sure that all mankind has knowledge of the Word of God made flesh and the truth of life it offers to all who believe.
Jesus did not come into the world to execute judgment. Nevertheless, the inevitable result of His coming is judgment, because some refuse to believe.
