God revealed Himself in the person of Jesus. In the Old Testament, God showed Himself in the flesh in various Christophanies. Experiencing God in the flesh was a rare experience in the Old Testament. It was something to be feared and may even entail a person dying by being in the presence of God.
Christmas reminds us that Jesus, who is uncreated, second person of the Trinity, and fully God, stepped in our world to be with us and be like us.. He pitched His tent with us or “tabernacled” with us so we may be redeemed and called children of God.
