GOD MANIFESTED IN FLESH. THE MAN CHRIST JESUS NO. 6

I return the letter you so kindly sent me. It is very plain that ————does not see God’s purpose in a Man; he is ^[p. 129] thinking only of Christ as God. God is setting forth His own glory in Christ as Man, otherwise there could not be glory unto Him in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages. If I begin at Genesis, the great purpose before God is man. In His own Son becoming Man He had a Man to His pleasure, and the church is the complement of that Man. The world could not contain the books which could be written of Him, but the church will fully and perfectly display Him. Some have no idea of the mystery or of God’s purpose in Christ. He as a Man can authorise to baptise in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
