Swaddling Clothes

Jesus as a baby was wrapped in the swaddling clothes of our flesh. He entered the mortal life of man, which included our world of of death. 

He was wrapped in the grave clothes of our death and placed in the tomb of the dust of our earth. He laid down His life to enter ours. He picked up His life again, but bringing His life of a man into the fullness of the new creation of heaven and earth. This is the new thing He is doing, the new thing He has done. 

If we give our life to Him, we can enter that new creation when we are resurrected by His word. He calls for us to come, first in word and then in a body like His joined in eternal fellowship and life with Him.
