The Purpose of "God with Us": A Christmas Meditation

The Purpose of “God with Us”:

A Christmas Meditation



God with us - the Glorious Incarnation

Dwelling with us - such holy condescension


God for us - the Wondrous Crucifixion

Dying for us - accomplishing Redemption


God in us - the Mysterious Union

Living in us - progressing sanctification


Us with God - the Final Salvation

Dwelling with God - everlasting Glorification



God in Christ was with us, so that God in Christ might be for us, so that God in Christ might be in us, so that we in Christ might be with God!


Incarnation eventually ends in Glorification - both ours and Christ’s!


Merry Christmas!
