"'The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel' - which means,
'God with us.'"
(MATTHEW 1:23)

revealed splendor.
The writer of Hebrews declares that though God spoke previously, “in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe” (1:2). The great “God with us” is Jesus Christ.
God Himself came down from His perfect, eternal Kingdom into this man-marred world of sin and its ruinous effects. He came to save and redeem. He did not come in might, thundering in thick clouds. Instead, He appeared as Immanuel – God with us – wrapped in cloths in a borrowed crib at birth and wrapped in cloths in a borrowed tomb at death. The eternal Friend of Sinners came to save sinners.
