31
And he spake unto me again, saying: Look! And I looked, and I beheld the
Lamb of God going forth among the children of men. And I beheld multitudes of people who were asick, and who were afflicted
with all manner of diseases, and with bdevils
and cunclean spirits; and
the angel spake and showed all these things unto me. And they were dhealed by the power of the Lamb of God; and the devils
and the unclean spirits were cast out.
-Condescension
#3: the Savior serving and assisting
mortal man in all of his infirmities, weaknessed and infirmities. Many men of nobility would hardly concern
themselves with the plight of those so far beneath their social standing (which
discrepancy is simply a social construct) much less the real differential that
existed between God and mortal man.
Christ had every legitimate reason to avoid the sinful rabble and
corrupted nature of mortal man… instead he made himself their servent. He engaged them in their ugly physical
infirmities and in their pathetic spiritual tragedies and filthiness. We cannot begin to comprehend the nature of God we have and the full capacity of love that defines the divine!
