Philip Yancey as usual astonishes me a lot with his writings. I wouldn't be able to think of all this about Jesus' life on earth. New perspectives , new ideas, so deep and true. his birth, miracles, temptation, sermon on the mount, trial, death, resurrection, and ascension. You cannot take any small part of his story for granted anymore.

My best part is the Chapter of the Temptation, Jesus refused to take the easy shortcut that Satan offered. but he chose the weak road wich lead to the cross, and persecution to his followers.

His incarnation till death was a total divine one way sacrifice, but it made a change in the unchangeable God. The scripture says that "he learned obedience from what he suffered. the Son of God truly say with understanding," They do not know what they are doing. " He had lived among us. Now he understood.
