I'm not saying God struggled with the adjustment, but there was a reason He came as a human and not a jaguar or a tree.

As a human, He had to adapt to human ways and as a Jew, He had to adapt to that culture. As a man, though He was sinless, He had to adapt to the price humanity pays as the result of sin, meaning He had to endure suffering and pain more than just on the cross.
Ho...we just won't agree on this... to believe this.. you are bringing God who is infinite in wisdom down to our level.. and his foolishnes is above our wisdom.. But I beleive I know where your coming from on this..

Sometimes we like to think of God as we think of ourselves (not in a bad way) and we equate him with us.... according to our humanity.. and what we think...
and with God that's just not the case...

The Jews weren't looking for a stinky stable baby...but a King to come out of the heavens ..then they would reign with him....

But a stable... No Way...
