1/6 The biblical narrative thinks in terms of corporate solidarity. That which impacts one, impacts all. If one person suffers, we all suffer. If one rejoices, we all rejoice. If one sins, we’re all implicated. If one does what’s right, we’re all affected.
2/6 Paul reasons out the gospel of the premise of corporate solidarity. By one man, Adam, we all became sinners. Guilt is universal. But by one man, Christ, all are cleared of guilt and made righteous. Righteousness is universal.
3/6 The voice of God at the Christ’s baptism, “This is My beloved Son in whom I am extremely pleased,” is God’s pronouncement of affection and favor upon the whole human race. How’s it feel to be perfectly loved?
4/6 His perfect life of faithful love to God and all others, was lived by Him as our corporate representative, as if you and I had lived that life. How’s it feel to be so amazing?
5/6 His self-sacrificing death to sin and shame on the cross, was the corporate death of the whole human race, so that our sin is banished from existence, cast into the depths of the sea. How’s it feel to be perfectly innocent and free?
6/6 His resurrection and ascension to the victory position at the right hand of the Father is for us and as us. We are there, in Him, as He eagerly awaits our arrival to our rightful position as benevolent rulers of the universe. How’s it feel to be victorious over all things?
