T Lord Jesus Christ has always been. He is not a created being. He did not just come into being when He was born in t manger. Jesus Christ always was & always will be. Thru His incarnation, which means, taking on a human form, God is now revealed to us, in a way that has never been before.
Thru Jesus' incarnation He became our Savior by dying in our place & purchasing a place in heaven for us.
