Dean,  do you believe that the death of Christ can be separated in reality from the life lived and the resurreection/ascention experienced? 
-----------------------------------------------------------
cd: No I don't John-but the fact remains that he was sent here to die. That act was the breaking of Satan. You seem to focus on the fact that he was born of weak flesh-which could not have kept God's laws-as a way of stating we are weak as Christians-when we are not. Accord to my belief you don't even believe one can keep from sin yet the Bible clearly states that to sin is to follow Satan.
 
 1Jo 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
 
I will be praying for you John.

His death was the victory not His life.
 
Why then all the fuss about his human nature? Would it have mattered if he had sinned while living in the flesh? Of course it would. The Christ of Scripture is the whole package, brother: his life, death, and resurrection -- not just a slab of meat hanging on a tree. May I suggest that you purchase and read Gustaf Aulen's Christus Victor? The tyrants were plural, Dean: sin, death, and the devil. Leave one of them out and Christ is not the Victor you imagine.
cd: The victory was still in the cross Bill not the life. We gained knowledge by His life-We gained life by His death. Knowledge without life is meaningless.

Amen!
Now this is good doctrine.  Thank you Dean, what a blessing you are in the Lord...

No, I think I will stay the course Bill. The Law mentioned was only weak
in our flesh not Christ's flesh-He came in the "likeness of that flesh" but
the law worked in Him who was not weak. This supports my view-disagree?
Then here's another verse to help.

Rom 5:8  But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet
sinners, Christ died for us.

His death was the victory not His life.
