Jesus, The Incarnate Glory: John 1:14-18

A good neighbor is irreplaceable. Knowing that there is someone nearby who can be trusted to take care of our homes and pets when we travel, or who can help us put up a fence in the yard, or who will loan us a cup of flour when we're baking brings security to our lives. Conversely, many of us know what it can be like to have a difficult neighbor. Who we live with can deeply impacts our everyday lives.

In John 1:14 we read about Jesus coming into the world by taking on flesh. He became like us. That is an incredibly mysterious and wonderful idea to explore. Beyond that, he drew near to us by entering our world. The image John offers conveys the idea of Jesus moving into a community. One translation literally says, "The Word became flesh and took up residence among us (HCSB)." As you can imagine, God moving in completely changes the neighborhood.

Join us on Sunday as we consider what it means that God himself entered into our world as one of us. Things will never be the same.
