    Carmel. He came in the flesh. His name was Jesus.

    HE WAS NOT REALLY BORN BUT GIVEN TO US, SINCE HE PRE-EXISTED AND EVEN CREATED HIS OWN MOTHER!

    Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
    But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
    And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

    WHY, may I ask:

    unto to us, a Son IS GIVEN?

    WHY NOT, UNTO US A SON IS BORN?

    Some have more darkness then others do,  AND some have more light,  but only God the Father has it all.  That is why we are told to study the word to show “OURSELVES” , THAT WE ARE WORKMEN , NOT TO BE. AHAMED, BY , “…[Read more]

    Hi LU.

    I cant provide a source for prototype as I wrongly assumed it was rooted in the word for firstborn despite both having the same root ‘proto’.

    That said, I stll believe yhat he is the prototype. He is yhe first type, the first Son. Those born from above will be like him. The same type.

    Hi LU

    It all comes down to two main things:
    1) the exemplary Father-Son relationship
    2) the free choice given to the creatures of God.

    God needed a Son in HIS IMAGE so that the FATHER-SON relationship would first be an example for those around them who are the angels.
    On the other hand, the objective of God being to create beings
