***Do you think what you describe here is at all analogous to the incarnation? ***

No. This occurs at a point in Gideon's life for a particular task. J

esus on the otherhand existed prior to his birth and took on human flesh at the incarnation. Remember Jesus said, BEFORE Abraham was born, I am.

These are entirely different.

J esus on the otherhand existed prior to his birth and took on human flesh at the incarnation. Remember Jesus said, BEFORE Abraham was born, I am. These are entirely different.

But there was something of Jesus, his human nature, which was not in existence until the incarnation. Correct? Or do you believe his human nature was also preexistent?
