| The Incarnation |
| Written by Tim Chambers |
|
Augustine of Hippo was a pastor and teacher who lived in what is now Algeria in North Africa from AD 354 to 430. Here is what he wrote about the mystery of the Incarnation. He it is by whom all things were made,
and who was made one of all things; who is the revealer of the Father without a mother,
the Son of the Mother without a father; the Word who was God before all time,
the Word made flesh at a fitting time; the maker of the sun,
made under the sun; ordering all the ages from the bosom of the Father,
hallowing a day of today from the womb of the Mother; remaining in the former,
coming forth from the latter; Author of the heaven and the earth,
sprung under the heaven out of the earth; unutterably wise,
in His wisdom a babe without utterance; filling the world,
lying in a manger.
