i'd probably go back to who he was in the beginning
and who he is now.  both are transcendent.  i don't
understand the mystery of his humanity or being
sin...but i know they were things he became and things
he ceases to be.  plus, we don't worship god eminent,
we worship him transcendent.  otherwise we stinketh of
antinomian-ism.
