Why would God, the Creator of everything that ever was, allow His Son to come and live in us, stained vessels that we are?
Ephesians 3:14-19 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
1 Corinthians 6:18-20 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
er....I thought that was the reason He came...to become one of us and offer us salvation in spite of the fact that we were stained....But He still wouldn't have arrived, as God, in a stained vessel when He could create a pure one.
