The most spectacular, unimaginable thing to believe in all of scripture is the incarnation of Christ. Jesus was God and He became a man! And more incredible than that, He became a baby! A real live, vulnerable, needy, dependent, helpless baby! We celebrate this fact. We call it Christmas.
When I get to chapters like this I think, "I should study that out more. I should try to understand what is going on". Then I read and study it out more, and get even more confused than I was at my first reading. Then I remember Christmas. Prior comprehension of christmas is so unimaginable that I can only have understanding after the fact has occurred. And that understanding is still only limited!
If I could totally understand and comprehend God…He would likely really not be God. My brain is way to finite to grasp His infiniteness.
