Question

Why did God have to be in flesh rather than remain a Spirit?

Answer

How was it God’s Blood? God has no blood. How could it be? Because it was God’s creative Blood that He created, in order to redeem us, and came and lived in the same body that He created. Therefore He could not…God had to suffer temptation; He couldn’t suffer temptation. He had to suffer sexual temptation. He had to suffer all kinds of temptation, to be tempted by the devil, in riches and powers and—and dominions, and so forth. He had to suffer all of that. In order to do it, He couldn’t be as God in Spirit; He had to be God in flesh.
