Yes. Jesus put on the flesh of those he went to, being in the likeness of those he went to. Though he was in a high place, he lowered himself to be as like us for the possibility, (just for a might), that he might reach us and so allowing us to be one with himself. He considered himself not to be greater than anyone else. He wanted all to have the life that he had. For none of you are any greater than any other and if you think you are worthy of the kingdom of God and yet Love not all other as your self, you will not have that inheritance. lower yourselves and create the chain that will lift others up. For the first shall be last and the last shall be first. Jesus lowered himself into the waters of Johns world and in doing so, he was able to better understand John and to be beside John and trusted by John and find that good that was in john in order to guide him in the right direction. For it must be ...this way, first you must baptize me and later I will come to baptize you. In order to pick some one up, we must stoop down below them and then we can raise them above ourselves, holding up them things that are good within that person and sending them on up then chain of our fellow Christian workers. We are to lift people up not pull them up. It is like indirect teaching. We are not giving them laws to follow or telling them what they must do. Rather we are setting up a way for them to see things on their own and helping them up to the next stage and from their one of our fellow workers in Christ shall water that seed and do the same. For that which someone finds on their own, they will hold more dear and true than that which was given to them. In this way as they start to run because of what they are learning, they will most likely run as if on fire and run to win the race. We are to set ourselves up in many offices in this manner in Christ, all working together as one but in many different positions lifting people up to one another and setting them on fire for Christ, that they will become one with us in God-speed and join with us in this work. Or we can just keep doing what we have been doing and continue to lose all the world and no one inherit the kingdom of God. Jesus told us what to do. And the time is hand.
