dc.description.abstract | Professor Becker explains the focus of this paper, “The apostle Paul in his first letter to Timothy says that the manifestation of God in flesh is a mystery which is great beyond controversy, or, as we might also paraphrase His words, the appearance of God in the form of a weak and despised human being is a mystery so marvelous that all those who believe it must confess its greatness. To this tremendous mystery we want to direct our attention for a few moments, even though even eternity will very likely not suffice to probe all the ramifications of this mystery which is beyond all controversy great.” | en_US |
