Hymn: Dear Lord Jesus, we adore Thee

Dear Lord Jesus, we adore Thee,
  “Seed of woman” Thou became;
Of the virgin wast begotten,
  Called e’en with a human name.
Taking thus the human nature,
  Thou as man the serpent trod;
By the Cross his head Thou bruisèd
  And fulfilled the plan of God.

Lord, we see Thy glory,
Shown in human beauty,
Full of splendor, manifested
In humanity.

As a man, by incarnation,
  Flesh and blood didst Thou partake
To destroy the devil, Satan,
  In our stead and for our sake.
With the name of Jesus given
  And Emmanuel callèd too,
Thou becam’st our precious Savior,
  Bringing us salvation true.

Thou, “Last Adam” wast entitled,
  And wast called the “second man”,
Head of all the new creation,
  Better than the first man.
On this earth in life and conduct
  Thou indeed wast Son of man;
Now in heaven with this nature
  Thou dost still appear as man.

In the time which God appointed
  Thou wilt come, dear Lord, again,
With the glory of the Father,
  Still appearing as a man.
Even on the throne of judgment
  Son of man Thou still wilt be;
And with this, our human nature,
  Thou forevermore wilt be.

Do you know what the first promise God gave in Genesis was? The first promise is written in Genesis 3:15: “I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; they will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel. ” This promise was given immediately after man fell. Adam and Eve were probably there in fear and trembling because of their disobedience. But God gave them a wonderful promise. This promise was that a seed of the woman would come and bruise the serpent’s head. Although the heel of the woman’s seed would be bruised, he would nevertheless crush the serpent’s head. How prominent this promise is!

The gospel is the fulfillment of the promise that the seed of the woman will crush the head of the serpent. We know that Christ, the seed of the woman, came. He was born of a virgin as the fulfillment of the promise given in Genesis 3:15. He, the seed of the woman, is the Savior-Slave whom the Gospel of Mark presents.

He who is in resurrection

Currently, Christ is in resurrection. One day Christ, the One who has existed from eternity, became a man through incarnation. Afterward, He was crucified and buried. Through death, He entered another realm, the realm of resurrection. In His existence from eternity, Christ was God and was with God in eternity; through incarnation, He became a man in the flesh; then, through crucifixion and burial, He entered resurrection. On the day of His resurrection, the angels told the women that they would not be able to find Christ in the tomb, for He had risen from the dead (Luke 24:1-6). This indicates that Christ is in resurrection.

O Lord, You are the perfect and genuine man! We praise You!

Christ as the seed of the woman implies that the complete God became a perfect man through the dispensing of Himself into humanity (John 1:1, 14; Matt. 1:23). God's incarnation was a dispensing. In eternity past, God remained in Himself. But at one point He made a counsel not to remain in Himself any longer. He desired to bring His divinity into humanity, and He prophesied concerning His desire in Genesis 3:15. However, this promise was not fulfilled until Mary conceived in Matthew 1. Because He was very patient, our God was silent for four thousand years.

At the time of the Lord's incarnation, God did not come to visit man as He had done with Adam. This time He entered into the womb of a virgin, remained there for nine months, and was born of her to be a God-man. As a man, He is Emmanuel (Matt. 1:23), God with us. Through incarnation God dispensed Himself into humanity. From the day of His incarnation, God no longer remained only in His divinity. He now remains in both divinity and humanity. The incarnation of Christ was the dispensing of God Himself into humanity. Christ is a real man, a perfect man, yet within Him is also the complete God. Hence, He is the God-man.

Today in the heavens He is still a man. The subject of Hymns, #62 is Christ's humanity, and the fourth stanza of this hymn indicates that in the heavens Christ is still a man:

In the time which God appointed

Thou wilt come, dear Lord, again,

With the glory of the Father,

Still appearing as a man.

Even on the throne of judgment

Son of man Thou still wilt be;

And with this, our human nature,

Thou forevermore wilt be.

Stephen saw Christ as the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God after His ascension (Acts. 7:56). In His second coming, Christ will be a man (Matt. 26:64). Christ has also been appointed by God to be the Judge of the living and the dead (Acts. 10:42). Because He is a man, God has given Him the authority to judge men (John 5:22, 27). According to the New Testament, God has authorized the man Jesus to judge the living at His coming, before the millennium on His throne of glory (Matt. 25:31-46), and the dead after the millennium on the great white throne (Rev. 20:11-15). In eternity He will still be a man (John 1:51).

Today on the earth the dispensing of God Himself into humanity includes not only Christ but also all of His believers. Hallelujah, Christ is the God-man, and we also are God-men. Jesus is the dispensing of God Himself into humanity, and we too are the dispensing of God Himself into humanity.
