When
the time came that His first-born, the Savior, should come into the
world and take a tabernacle, the Father came Himself and favoured that
spirit with a tabernacle, instead of letting any other man do it. The
Saviour was begotten by the Father of His spirit, by the same Being
who is the Father of our spirits, and that is all the organic difference
between Jesus Christ and you and me. And the difference there between
our Father and us consists in that He has gained His exaltation, and
has obtained eternal life.
