At the birth of Christ, the manger was full-he way lying in a manger as a baby boy. At the resurrection of Christ the tomb was empty. It’s not as though human nature was a costume God wore and when he was finished with it he left if behind, and went back to being God. Christ became one of us, and when he rose from the dead his human body was still with him. That’s why the tomb was empty. He still stayed one of us and is still part of our family today. The child who was in that manger lives on as a human being, one of us today. That’s what we celebrate at Christmas.
