Learning Cold
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. - Matthew 1:22-23 KJV
The Earth Noticed
I tell you, if these were silent, the stones would cry out. - Luke 19:40 The stones noticed first. Down where nothing is named, they warmed a little, not from fire, just from being near to something.
When Time Slowed
When the fullness of time had come… - Galatians 4:4 (ESV, partial) Nothing much happened, at least not that you’d point to. No crack in the sky. No flare or sign. Just the sense, standing there, that things weren’t keeping pace.
What Was Missing
He emptied himself. - Philippians 2:7 Nothing was announced. Nothing was held back. He simply wasn’t there anymore.
