The Incarnations of Jesus Christ

God Through Anne Terri With The Holy Spirit:

To Study My Incarnations, a term used freely in Hinduism, and sometimes mistakenly used in other religions such as Christianity, it is important to understand, it is not Jesus' Spirit who is bestowed upon a human who is filled with My Holy Spirit, but My Own, God's Spirit.

By what ever term you choose, when the Word Becomes Flesh, this does not Mean that the human filled with My Spirit Is Me, but Speaks With My Voice, and or, Hears Me Directly. In Addition they Receive certain Powers Through Me, as I Perform Miracles, Healing, and so on.  Jesus is one of the more notable Christs who is known to have done this with Me.

It is Believed in certain Religious circles that he Incarnated more times than that written within The New Testament. I Am Not Here to take down these beliefs, but Reserve the answers to this and how many times, to when you come home to ultimately live with Us, in Heaven.

Know this, We are One in Spirit, but Jesus is also his own self in Spirit. To Awaken the Christ within you, requires FAITH!  I Am The Christ within you. Reach out to Me, I Am Here for you. Do not confuse with Incarnation, with Resurrection or Reincarnation. They are not the same!

With this said, to reply to Messiah Rev. Colleen Etana's prompt for Me to Speak Out on The Incarnations of Jesus Christ, I Place before you, a section from Messiah Joseph Romanella (Vidwan's) Book - 'Adam's Dream', and a worthy post made by a biblical scholar named Mike below this. Both are food for thought.

'There can never be anything that is so combustible in human hearts as Truth is and the Christian Gospels clearly fulfill that awesome function. The Holy Message of the Incarnated LORD (Jesus Christ) offers mankind a Living Knowledge, to liberate them from the oppressive chain of karmatic law of sin and death around their necks. As long one embraces the Words of God with all of their hearts and minds, they are justified or Redeemed by them. When that holy fire is ignited in one’s bosom, it quickly burns away all of the personal-dross in their deluded minds and hearts: “Whoever is near to Me is near to the fire, and whoever is far from Me is far from the Kingdom.” (Gospel of Thomas 95:16)

Council of Nicaea in A.D. 325 representing Christ’s single eternal generation:

The phrase “only-begotten” is not an accurate translation and should not be used in any of the nine passages. This phrase is derived from the Latin Vulgate (a translation of the Bible from about the 5th century which has been quite influential on other translations) and reflects certain theological debates about the person of Christ. While the language of the Word being born of God is present in the 2nd century, the most notable occurrence of this language is the creed from the Council of Nicaea in A.D. 325. This creed speaks of the Son of God as begotten of the Father, unique—that is, from the substance of the Father—God from God, light from light, true God from true God, begotten not made, of one substance with the Father. This creed was the result of the rejection of the heresy that the Son of God was the first created being. Ultimately the phrase “begotten not made” leads to what theologians call the doctrine of the eternal generation of the Son.

(Elwell, W. A., & Beitzel, B. J. (1988). Baker encyclopedia of the Bible (1590). Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Book House.)

Not to say that the theological term is not very biblical. When the word begotten is used with “son” it does mean God’s only Son, indicating God’s absolute delight towards him and his absolute uniqueness (Jn 3:16, 18; 1 Jn 4:9).

The statement at the baptism and transfiguration of Jesus in the Synoptics 'This is my beloved son' also carries the same sense of God’s absolute delight towards him and his absolute uniqueness, but not principally a literal/spiritual 'birth'. Not 'principally' a 'birth' but by implication as Jesus is unique since he is also eternally begotten. If that does not make him unique I do not know what can. In fact the very notion of a son, and all its uses in scripture could be argued as having its ultimate meaning in dimly reflecting the glory of the Son. The concept of sonship finds its ultimate meaning in Christ.
To confuse matters more, in Hebrews Chapter 1:5 it reads ‘For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”? Or again, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son”? this seems to imply a 'birth' or sorts, but not really. From this type of reference we are naturally tempted to mix the theological term (i.e. eternal generation) with the biblical prophecy first fulfilled in David (as a type) and in Christ as Messiah. Therefore, although “only begotten” is a theological term referring to a single eternal event, ‘today I have begotten you’ means something totally different in terms of a true generation, or 'birth'. This really refers to his 'birth' from the dead, or the first born.

John Owen explains the different views about 'begotten' very well here, as well as the correct view to take:

And some assign this to the day of his incarnation, when he declared him to be his Son, and that he should be so called, as Luke 1:35; some to the day of his baptism, when he was again solemnly from heaven proclaimed so to be, Matt. 3:17; some to the day of his resurrection, when he was declared to be the Son of God with power, Rom. 1:4, and Acts 13:33; some to the day of his ascension, whereunto these words are applied. And all these interpretations are consistent, and reconcilable with each other, inasmuch as they are all means serving unto the same end, that of his resurrection from the dead being the most signal amongst them, and fixed on in particular by our apostle in his application of this testimony unto him, Acts 13:33. And in this sense alone the words have any appearance of respect unto David, as a type of Christ, seeing he was said, as it were, to be begotten of God when he raised him up, and established him in his rule and kingdom.

(Owen, J. (1854). Vol. 20: An Exposition of the Epistle to the Hebrews, Volume 3 (W. H. Goold, Ed.). Works of John Owen (136–137). Edinburgh: Johnstone and Hunter.)

Conclusion: The biblical term “begotten” refers to the resurrection of Christ, which happened once. The theological term “only begotten” refers to the eternal generation of the Son, by an inconceivable communication of the essence and substance of the Godhead by the Father --- only happened in a continuous forever. God’s absolute delight towards Christ and his absolute uniqueness implied by the words 'only Son' brings the single eternal generation and the single generation from the dead together under the Sonship theme. Both his eternal generation and his resurrection make him absolutely unique and proven fully approved of by God. This is partly why Jesus always used the phrase 'the Son' as implying being one and only person generated from yet equal to his Father, for example, as in John 5:16-29.
