: : : I was incarnated, too... & Christ was incarcerated, too. Wow. What interesting sequence of events for mankind... Are you an Arian Christian?

### Sure.
: Christ was God's son
### ... but in another way than we are God's children. He was/is part of God's essence and substance. We still have to become that -with the help of Christ.
