“If we admit his generation from the Father, then let us also admit his birth from Mary, so that our faith might be complete.”
Ambrose of Milan, De benedictionibus patriarcharum sI; PI I4, 723.
Our faith is not just a hidden conviction; our faith appears in words and deeds. Accepting Jesus as human means we acknowledge everything he went through. When we accept Him, we have his image in us. Thus, we live the same life he lived.
