Beauty (glory) of God shines in people good will; not as a rewarding light shining on them but as a flower's beauty. Good will reflects in virtues, but in them, what invites to God's beauty is the sincere labour one makes to keep the good will always.
Where do we experience, share, and hold this beauty other than in our physical-biological reality? It is sacramental. All theo-logics spoke about that aspect of us which we call soul. Rarely they considered the physicality in contemplating human reality. Christ's very incarnation speaks primarily of being human. He dwelt among us that we may be fully human. We be his body, sacramentally and physically.Titles God of gods, and king of kings ... destroys the very will of God in incarnation. If Christ is Christ only with these titles, he is yet to incarnate, there is no beauty of God nor of humanity shining in him. Christ is born human, humanly.
