John Calvin on the Incarnation of Christ

"Here is something marvelous: the Son of God descended from heaven in such a way that, without leaving heaven, he willed to be borne in the virgin's womb, to go about the earth, and to hang upon the cross; yet he continuously filled the world even as he had done from the beginning!" (Institutes 2.134)

Typical Trinitarian cognitive dissonance regarding the kenosis. It's all easily understood once one simply believes what Paul said.

If I may, I'd like to share some blog links on this subject:
