Incarnation OR Indwelling?
Didn't want to lose this discussion from another thread.
Posted by Mapleleaf
The Son was not a body in which God dwelt; the Son was God manifested in flesh, Emmanuel, God with us.
It is the difference between incarnation and indwelling.
In Christ, God did not indwell a man, God became a man.
The birth of Christ was a unique joining of absolute Deity with perfect humanity, and of this we say, great is the mystery of godliness."
