What was the purpose of Jesus becoming a man, according to the material?

• A. To fulfill all prophecies
• B. To reveal the gospel to Gentiles
• C. To be merciful and faithful high priest
• D. To establish a political kingdom

Answer: (C)

The key idea is that Jesus became a man to serve as a merciful and faithful high priest. By taking on humanity, He represents us before God, experiences our temptations, and offers the perfect sacrifice to atone for sins. This priestly role lets Him extend mercy to sinners and carry out His duties before God with unwavering faithfulness, enabling believers to approach God with confidence. While fulfilling prophecies, revealing the gospel to all nations, and not neglecting the coming of God’s kingdom are part of His mission, the material emphasizes the priestly function as the primary purpose of the Incarnation.
