JESUS, the First-Begotten of our heavenly Father, chose to be born again that sinful man might have the right to choose to be born again. Jesus became a babe in the first Adam that men might become babes in Christ, the second Adam. Jesus was born from below that man might be born from above. By a birth Jesus became a partaker of our human nature that by a birth we might become partakers of His divine nature. Jesus became obedient unto the cross of death that we might become obedient unto the crown of life. Jesus was lifted up on the cross that we might be lifted up on His throne. Jesus' incarnation was His humiliation; man's incarnation is his exaltation. Jesus was obedient unto death that we might be obedient unto life. Jesus was reckoned as a sinner that we might be reckoned as saints. Jesus suffered the death that was ours that we might receive the life that was His. Jesus was treated as we deserve that we might be treated as He deserves.
From birth to perfect manhood, Jesus grew in stature, wisdom, and grace, that man might, from the time he is born from above, grow in stature, wisdom, and grace, even to the measure of Christ. From childhood Jesus acted independently of rabbinical laws; so man, when born again, may safely disregard the inventions of men. Jesus never transgressed physical law. It is as truly a sin to violate the laws of our being as to break the Ten Commandments. Hence man should understand and cheerfully obey physical law.
Jesus was wise to discern evil and strong to resist it. He can make us also wise and strong. Jesus exercised no power in His own behalf that is not freely offered to man. Jesus was an example of what God designed all humanity to be thru obedience to His laws. Jesus never possessed or cherished a single thought or feeling that responded to temptation. Jesus was, and still is, an ideal Man, divinity and humanity perfectly and harmoniously blended. We may become like Him, eventually see Him as He is, and sit with Him on His throne in the kingdom of glory, and evermore reign with Him.
