Is that why , in Matthew 5:5 - Jesus says that 'the meek shall inherit the earth'?

Sounds like a fair statement. Jesus was submissive to God. The meek must be submissive to God to inherit the earth.

yes it took a lot of humility for God to leave His home and assume an imperfect body and to serve us while He was here on earth knowing what we were going to do to Him.
it says the meek shall inherit the earth because anybody that is proud or full of themselves dont think they need anything so therefore they dont think they need God and God is the way to everything on earth and heaven

If God took human form, who's voice is heard coming from the heavens upon Jesus' baptism? Matt 3:17

I don't think so. God knew from the beginning He would do this. It was a way for all humanity to be free from sin. Life is a learning process and the Bible and God are the most important lesson of all life, and death. God Bless.

He left the glory of Heaven, the praise of the angels to become a humble human. Yeah, I'd call that humility.

Why is that Christians believe that God incarnate into Jesus, but don't believe in reincarnation? We all share the same energy as God or should I say that we are all a part of God. God is energy. We are all God reincarnated experiencing different things, different feelings, different views.

Why do you believe that He did assume human form?
The Logos or Word made flesh actually refers to the Word of God being "manifested" through perfect human beings, called Manifestations of God. Krishna, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad, Baha'u'llah are all Manifestations of God. They are all the one Christ, the eternal Word of God made flesh.

No, it takes a lot of humility for humans to assume a bent-over form and take it up the as's from god, too much humility for my tastes.

Remember that God is multi-faceted. He is all of what we are and more. But here on earth, part of Him was Jesus and part of Jesus was human. To die as He did was more than humble. It was humiliating for Him and it was awesome for us.
