Description
Excerpt from On the Incarnation of the Eternal Word
That the Word was made ?esh, and that he was not made sinful ?esh, are propositions which lie at the very foundations of Christianity. ''that the first of these pro positions is denied by any person in the present age, I have little ground for supposing; and I have not there fore judged it necessary to enter at any length into the proof of it, but have contented myself with simply stating the grounds upon which that proof may be founded. Un til very lately, the other proposition would not have re quired, in a treatise like this, more than a passing notice. The earnestness, however, with which the sinfulness of our Lord''s ?esh is now maintained, renders it a matter of paramount importance. While, therefore, I am not aware that I have altogether omitted any material ques tion that is intimately connected with the Incarnation, yet I have treated each more or less largely, according as I considered it as bearing more or less directly on that tenet.
