Christ was further than a immolation. He was the person in the war that was against us who took the curse. He substituted for us to deliver us from our adversaries. We're needed to make the kingdom. All adversaries are accursed because of our cover. We retain nothing to offer God. What work did Christ leave undone? The apostle says that God will reliably deliver him from all active opposition and deliver him home in heaven. Some failed a fatality and others conquered their adversaries. But all fought with the eternal curse in effective defense of the eternal covenant. Christ got in between our redoubtable adversaries and us. Responsible leaders are the in-betweeners. We really stand against the top adversary. We aren't like Thomas who retreated and was no where to be plant when the dire circumstances got dangerous. Leaders step up when the raging fire is the hottest. This isn't a movie with Christian actors. It's authentic life with peril. We're only admired by our commanding position in the specific circumstances of the harsh world. Look around and there's no effective leadership other than the sincere patriots. The inspired apostle says we're in the violent world. We aren't a rhapsody cult. Face the inexplainable reasons our concentrated country has gone to hell. It didn't be by osmosis.
