George Fox, circa 1660 AD: Jesus died and rose triumphantly that we might be LIKE Him, not to excuse powerless sinfulness, as religion wanted to do both then and now. (There is nothing new under the sun.) "The Son of God was manifest to DESTROY the devil's work" -- not to simply overlook it.
Christ Jesus--exalted, glorified, risen!!HE is our passion, our purpose, our life!!
