Life Changing

"On the one hand, you've got religions that say God is so immanent in all things that incarnation is normal. If you are Buddhist or Hindu, God is immanent in everything. On the other hand, religions like Islam and Judaism say God is so transcendent over all things that incarnation is impossible. But Christianity is unique. It doesn't say incarnation is normal, but it doesn't say it's impossible. It says God is so immanent that it is possible, but he is so transcendent that that the incarnation of God in the person of Jesus Christ is a history-altering, life-transforming, paradign-shattering event."
Tim Keller, interview in Relevant magazine.
