The incarnation itself is a lesson in Gods character.
Conservative, parentage was not of the noble kind ,
Manger born ,
Carpenter trained and trail ..
Homeless ? Nothing of opulence to cheer of .
Borrowed colt ,borrowed grave .
If he showed any glory at all
It wasn’t any earthy masterpiece,
It was the miraculous,
His unmistakable pureness in character .
Jesus had no run -way display
He wasn’t showing off his exquisiteness .
He had none .
The prophets said he had no form of comeliness.
Some have argued he did this because of His mission .
They are right .
One must be thus mission minded .
But did he live this way to condemn The earthly wealth
Not by any measure ,for he had the rich in his school .
Yet,he showed no preference for a mans wears or ride or palace .
The glory of God is not in all of that .
His was a servant .
Thus in his resurrection,his apostles made no such acclaim .
If they had much or more we might never know .
Not in a wimp of acclaim or boast .
All you had never owned you ,save the cross .
In it are all your boasts .
No cars to show as story ,no houses to prove your worth .
It’s not found in the story of the gospel .
All servants we are ..
Sons ,who serve ,
Owned by Him
Nothing to claim but the shed blood
And we bearers of its suffering .
To be quiet about wealth ,earths possessions or the glory is Gods character
So this path we follow ..
Seeing a claimed minister of Christ
Shout ,now i drive …or I live …or I do …
Is nothing but a vain man
Let him not claim it with a tag of Christ
He lies to say this
Others may clap at him or lift him high
But a stench it is
The cross has no such glory
And so we shouldn’t
Amen
