Why would an all knowing being need to do so?

HE DID! Jesus Christ walked in the flesh seeing first hand what being a Human was all about. --- 1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. --- This verse states God was manifest as Jesus Christ. So God does know what being Human is all about.

Most Christians would answer with the Trinity, which would mean that God did come to earth as Jesus. But I kind of have a problem with the Trinity since it seems to contradict itself too much. Perhaps God, in a sense, did manifest himself in the flesh by dwelling in the true Christian. That's my answer, I guess... which may be wrong.

All day, every day...that is precisely what's happening @ each and every one of us. Just don't have to call it God. You could look at it as if there was no "you" but that there is only God. All mystics say this, including most of the Christian ones.

He did. John 3:16: For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (NIV) Hebrews 4:15: For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. (NIV)
