Proof The Bible Is True

The Incarnation * First some brief items on the day and year of Jesus' birth. * Jesus as Creator, as well as the divine Memra or Word of God. OT proves the deity of the Messiah. * The Kenosis: Jesus emptied himself, NOT by removing His divine attributes (despite what BioLogos claims), but by adding human ones. He laid aside the independent exercise of His divine power, submitting to the Father's will, for the duration of His earthly life and ministry. * Jesus had to be human to take on the same nature as the ones He died for, and to be our Kinsman-Redeemer via common descent from Adam. * First prophecies in Genesis 3:15, related to Gen. 4:1-2, Isaiah 7:14. * How the Wise Men knew: they knew of the prophecies of Balaam and Daniel (timing of the Messiah's arrival) but not Micah (place of birth).
