Yes sir... but the lesson is about studying to shew thyself approved that you won't be ashamed.
The "concept" of God robing himself in flesh is there... but I had heard it over the pulpit and assumed they were quoting scripture to me and found myself ready to show a trinitarian that scripture and couldn't find it.
I hadn't studied to show myself approved and I found myself ashamed.
Concepts become "scripture" in peoples minds and then other "concepts" derive from these concepts and off we go into crazy land.
