The Body of Christ

How beautiful the body of Christ.  The supreme miracle occurs, the Son of God becomes man.  The word is made flesh.  He that had existed from eternity in the glory of the Father, He was the agent of creation.  In this humanly body he takes all flesh upon himself.  That is why His life, death, and resurrection are events that involve all men.  It is sinful flesh he bears though he is without sin (11Corinthians 5:2, Hebrews 4:15)

The earthly body of Jesus underwent crucifixion and death.  He took on all sinful flesh so that it was  our  infirmities and all our sin that He bears to the cross. We are crucified with Him, only to rise again in a glorious new body.  A body with sinless perfection, O, how wonderful to know I have been made perfect by being washed in His precious blood.  How worthy is the Lamb.
