The Work of Incarnation - Taking Up Israel's Life and Lot

Sovereign Grace Community Church

The Incarnation involved the God of Israel embodying Himself within Israel in order to redeem and restore Israel so that it should fulfill its election and calling in the world. Thus the incarnation's work was directed toward Israel becoming Israel indeed, and the gospels show this first through Jesus' genealogy, and then by His baptism by John, the forerunner promised by Isaiah.
