We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true - even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life." (1John 5:20)
If God had not become a man, we would not know Him as well as we do. But because God came to earth as the God-man Jesus, we saw God functioning in daily human life. We saw Him interacting with humanity as if He was one of us.
The Bible paints a picture of the life of Jesus, perfectly illustrating God's character and highlighting how He is like and different from us, His creation. Through reading the stories of Jesus' life and ministry, we can learn more about God and His incredible love for us. Study the Son, and you'll better understand the Father.
