143But what He wanted to do, He loved fatherhood, for He was a Father. And the only way that He could express it was to become a Son, a man. That’s the reason Jesus kept saying, “The Son of man.” See, they didn’t know what He was talking about, many of them. But now you get it? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] See? He wanted to express Hisself. That was His, one of His great threefold purposes, was to express Himself, identify Himself with human beings, to reveal Hisself in Christ.

37Remember, in flesh He was just a man, but in Spirit He was God. But, a man in flesh, therefore His body was a human being that was subject to temptations, subject to sicknesses, and just the same as ours; as He had to put on, be a–a Man, a human. And then He was God, in the Spirit. He said, “I and My Father are One. My Father dwelleth in Me.”
38When John baptized Him on the river, Jordan, we see God descending from Heaven like a dove, and the Voice saying, “This is My beloved Son in Whom I am pleased to dwell.”…..
39He, God, dwelt in Christ, and in Him was the fulness of the Godhead, bodily. God expressing Hisself through Jesus, and Jesus was the vindication of God…..
40God, the Father, in the form of the Holy Spirit was in a Pillar of Fire, and, That, no one could touch around Him. He was holy. No sin offering was made; just a potential offering.
41Now, that same Pillar of Fire, the Fatherhood, came down and was made God in Sonship. He dwelt in a Pillar of Fire, here He… in the Shekinah Glory. Here He dwelt in a body, which was His Son that He created and made in the form of a man, so that made Him the Son of God, Second Adam. Now, He had to come through the womb of a woman, not like Adam, because that that’s what He had to condemn, the birth of a human being by a woman. See, so He had to come that way. Now that’s God, the Son, the same God. And now He, through offering that body without sin, made a human offering.
