Sounding like a training meeting. Get everybody worked up to a lather with true things. Stir it higher by pushing them with your own excited words.
Then slip in something ridiculous and they mistake that "Oh NO" in their minds for more exuberance and they just take it without another thought.
Yes. This is God's work in incarnation. And it is wonderful.
But you didn't cause that statement to even infer anything about a change in the Son.
It is not evidence that God changed, or that at this point the fullness of the Godhead came to be on the Son. (And you may have judiciously avoided saying that — I'm not sure.) He was already fully the Godhead. As are the Father and Spirit. The only thing that changed was a collection of human tissue and the life that was within it. All that came into that human.
Of course it had to because the Son was living there. It was/is unavoidable. The Son had the fullness of the Godhead and now lived in a human body, so that body, and the person known to the humans who came in contact with him, now had the fullness of the Godhead. Now in a body, so "bodily."
No change in God. Not even a change in you or me (at that point). But a change in that one human. A very significant change at that.
But not a change in God.
