The Hymn of God's Word
The Substance of Christ Is God
I
God who becomes flesh
is called Christ,
so the Christ
that can give people truth
is called God.
It is not too much to say like that.
For He possesses
the substance of God.
He possesses God's disposition
and wisdom in His work,
which are unreachable by man.
Those who call themselves Christ
yet cannot do the work of God
are frauds.
Christ is not merely
the manifestation of God on earth,
but the particular flesh
assumed by God,
as He carries out,
completes His work among man.
Christ is not merely
the manifestation of God on earth,
but instead,
the particular flesh assumed by God,
as He carries out,
completes His work among man.
