We were doing a lesson on 'The Pre-existence of Christ' (hey, the curriculum was written by the Boices!) and we established that GodChrist existed forever and was forever before time. I challenged them to think about what they would say to a hypothetical school classmate who disagreed with that - 'if Christmas is about Jesus being born, then he has a beginning, so how can he exist from forever?'<BR/><BR/>One of my quietest boys got this 'duh' look on his face and patiently explained to me that 'Jesus was *always* God, he just wasn't always *man*'. <BR/><BR/>So there you have it.
