Re: [TruthTalk] The Humanity of Jesus

[LBetz]

I like the way The Message puts this passage:   3God went for the jugular when he sent his own Son. He didn't deal with the problem as something remote and unimportant. In his Son, Jesus, he personally took on the human condition, entered the disordered mess of struggling humanity in order to set it right once and for all. The law code, weakened as it always was by fractured human nature, could never have done that.     The law always ended up being used as a Band-Aid on sin instead of a deep healing of it.
