ï In every HUMAN relationship there must be 'space'.

Izzy Isaiah 9:6 (New American Standard Bible)         <SUP id=en-NASB-17836>6For a (A)child will be born to us, a (B)son will be given to us;          And the (C)government will rest (D)on His shoulders;          And His name will be called (E)Wonderful Counselor, (F)Mighty God,          Eternal (G)Father, Prince of (H)Peace. I do not know how to explain it, Izzy. I remember that a professor at university, for whom I have a very high regard, said that it has something to do with that post-resurrection (our resurrection) day, when Christ receives the throne from the Father, but I didn't understand him well enough that it stuck. It's a really good question, though. Do you have any thoughts regarding an explanation? Bill Perhaps we want to force too much separation between Father God and the Incarnate Christ.    Goes to our thinking that we can actually understand that which is beyond us.   God is all of this yet expressed in community.    How, exactly that works is yet to be revealed.   (???????)
