IMMANUEL

The King walked over and reached for the book. He turned it toward Lucifer and commanded, ``Come, Deceiver, read the name of the One who will call your bluff. Read the name of the One who will storm your gates.``Satan rose slowly off his haunches. Like a wary wolf, he walked a wide circle toward the desk until he stood before the volume and read the word:``Immanuel?`` he muttered to himself, then spoke in a tone of disbelief. ``God with us?``
For the first time the hooded head turned squarely toward the face of the Father. ``No. Not even You would do that. Not even You would go so far.`` ``You`ve never believed me, Satan.`` ``But Immanuel? The plan is bizarre! You don`t know what it`s like on Earth! You don`t know how dark I`ve made it. It`s putrid. It`s evil. It`s....``IT IS MINE,`` proclaimed the King. ``AND I WILL RECLAIM WHAT IS MINE. IWILL BECOME FLESH. I WILL FEEL WHAT MY CREATURES FEEL. I WILL SEE WHAT THEY SEE.`` ``But what of their sin?`` ``I will bring mercy.`` ``What of their death?`` ``I will give life.`` Satan stood speechless. God spoke, ``I love my children. Love does not take away the beloveds freedom. But love takes away fear. And Immanuel will leave behind a tribe of fearless children. They will not fear you or your hell.`` Satan stepped back at the thought. His retort was childish. ``Th-th-they will too!`` ``I will take away all sin. I will take away death. Without sin and without death, you have no power.``Around and around in a circle Satan paced, clenching and unclenching hiswiry fingers. When he finally stopped, he asked a question that even Iwas thinking. ``Why? Why would You do this?`` The Father`s voice was deep and soft. ``Because I love them.``
