At Christmas time, we turn our attention to Jesus as the baby in the manger. With His birth, the world would never be the same, for that event meant the Son of God became the Son of Man - taking on Himself all the limitations of man without losing His divinity - something only God could do. None of His limitations as a human were a surprise to Jesus. For our sakes, He willingly took those limitations upon Himself. The Son of God who was, is and will always be the Lord of Lords did something He did not have to do. Fully God and fully human, He expressed His love sacrificially. Jesus referred to Himself most often as the Son of Man Rath Yatra in India. In His humanity the Creator of man became like His creation in order to redeem mankind. the Creator of time came just at the right moment for the prophecies about Him to be fulfilled. the Shepherd who cares for His sheep needed a mother to care for Him through His early years. the Source of all wisdom and knowledge grew and learned. the Living Water got thirsty. the Bread of Life became hungry but resisted the temptation to satisfy that hunger with anything that would dishonor His Father. the Judge of all men felt sorrow for fallen man and was determined to take our just punishment upon Himself. He needed rest and sleep. He enjoyed companionship with His fellow man. He prayed to the Father. the One who gave the commandments demonstrated how to obey them. the King of Kings came to serve, not to be served. He accomplished something the rest of humanity could not do - He lived a perfect life. the great Lion of Judah became the Lamb of God sacrificing Himself for those He came to save. He rose from death victorious - forever to be the Son of Man who would intercede for those He understood so well. There was never a time when Jesus was not God, but with His birth, now He would also always be the Son of Man rath yatra. "And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying; "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us
