The only begotten Son of God became a human being, became a man, and there is a reason for this immensely important world-historic event. Without knowledge of the circumstances, the life and mission of Jesus remains a mystery. This book addresses fundamental questions about Jesus Christ. It sheds light on the meaning of Christ’s parables and sayings and explains, as well, the significance of his incarnation and his act of redemption. The meaning and purpose of our own human existence is also made clear.
