The fact of the incarnation and the indwelling Spirit shout truths about God mighty to tear down every lie ever uttered against Him.  Not content to remain distant from us, He came near to us - and then came into union with us - that He might dwell with us eternally! From before the world began, a joyful God had an outrageous plan to draw impossibly near to me - through union in Christ by His spirit! -David Sliker
