No plumber can think to repair a pipe within a house without first entering the house. Even God had to come in the likeness of sinful flesh in the midst of corruption to change the course of man. If God who is all powerful followed this principle no man should imagine otherwise.
This doesn't mean everyone who follows through on this principle will succeed in effecting the necessary change, what it means is those who refuse to follow the principle have no chance of changing anything. They will spend their lives outside the system shouting change!
I will rather have a man or woman who threw their hearts into the ring & joined the fray and failed attempting rather than one who stood afar off with a holier than thou attitude. God took upon himself our sinful flesh identifying with us in our corrupt state to save us.
We may not appreciate the risk Christ took. The possibility of failing was there. That is why it is recorded he cried out unto him with tears who was able to save him from death. That thou he were a son he still had to learn how to live above corruption and walk in obedience.
hats into the ring*
