Text Box: Volume 13 No. 4 OF THE CHURCH Text Box: OF MAN WITH GOD December, 2005 A.D. REUNIONText Box: WITHOUT GOD’S SON, WITHOUT MARY’S SON It can not be that God is the God of some people and not the God of others, for He is the only creator, the only God, and therefore the God of all. Quite simply, until the Son of God became man, no man could attain union with God, no man could attain heaven. The holiness of Moses, of Elias, of Noah, Israel, and Abraham, even though it allowed them to speak with, experience, and see the manifestation of God, did not allow them to attain that for which mankind was designed. It did not allow them to attain union with God. Text Box: MARY AWAITED THE MESSIAH AS THE PERFECT CREATED HOST FOR PERFECTION The Ever Virgin Mary was the perfect vessel for The Eternally Begotten Son of God the Father, to take and combine total human nature into Himself so that He has both the Divine Nature and human nature, Divine Will, and human will. Upon being requested by God, she freely accepted being the mother of God. Her perfection was dependent upon the perfection she was to bear, the perfection to which she was to give birth. The Bearer of God awaited the coming of the Messiah just as all mankind had awaited His coming, for even in her perfection she required the coming of the Messiah who was to reestablish the ability of mankind to attain salvation. We too anticipate the coming of the Savior, not awaiting His actions as Savior, for that He has accomplished.
