It is not? Incarnate means "became flesh". God became flesh is what God incarnate means. Or you could say it as God in the flesh.That is not same as “God incarnated”.

I meant, John 1:14 says "Word became flesh", not “God became flesh”.
Bible tells God lives in Jesus and in disciples of Jesus. That way God is in flesh. I don’t think it is same as incarnate.
Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.
John 14:10
For in him all the fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily,
Colossians 2:9
Don't you know that you are a temple of God, and that God's Spirit lives in you?
1 Corinthians 3:16
First, "The Word was God" John 1:1. Thus, if the Word became flesh, then God became Flesh.
Second, "incarnat-" is a Latin word that literally means "made flesh"
But scripture does say "the Word was God" in English. In Greek the words are ordered differently so it says, when translated word for word "God was the Word".The problem with that is, that what Bible tells can be understood also so that the word was God, but not the true God.
The rest of the bible isn't ignored by noticing what is in John 1:1,14.More is not needed for that. But we have more than that in the Bible and I think the rest of the Bible should not be ignored.
Nope - facts mixed up here apparently.In fact the bible rests more on the faith of Christians than the faith of Christians rests upon the bible. Christianity came first and the bible followed so Christian faith is not resting on the bible as its foundation. It's not possible to rest on the bible as foundation if the bible is the product of faith rather than its cause. And the bible is in fact the product of faith - not its cause.
Nevertheless Christians produced the bible, specifically the new testament, and Christianity existed before the bible was complete. The bible depends on Christians for its existence. Of course both Christians and the bible depend on God for their existence. It is important not to confuse the scriptures with God. Christian faith comes from God rests upon God and is directed towards God. Scripture is a product of that faith.Nope - facts mixed up here apparently.
If the truth of Yahuweh, Sovereign Creator, and His Breathed Word,
rested on Christians or their faith,
it would be very very very shaky at best ,
in this world.
What Yahuweh says is truth, is truth, and nothing can or will ever change that.
He Says So in His Inspired Word.
Yahuweh is the One Source of the Bible, and it has little or nothing to do with the rise of "Christendom".Nevertheless Christians produced the bible, specifically the new testament, and Christianity existed before the bible was complete.

Really?Yahuweh is the One Source of the Bible, and it has little or nothing to do with the rise of "Christendom".
(according to Yahuweh and His Revelation in His Word.)
Human flesh is what God became man to redeem, the flesh is good, it is not some nasty evil thing to be avoided as if it was worthless. Resurrection is all about the redeemed flesh. Incarnation is all about redeeming flesh. We are made in God's image and because God always is flesh in eternity no one ought to be denigrating flesh as if it is inherently evil."NOT through human will" Yahuweh is the Source. The Origination. Not of the flesh.
...came first and the bible followed so Christian faith is not resting on the bible as its foundation....
In some revelations of the meanings of the original words, "permanent disciple" is realized/stated/translated.Christian meant originally a disciple of Jesus.
