We are studying II Corinthians in ABD class and recognizing Paul's God-given skills in hitting the mark.
Spiritual life is unique and experienced only by the death of Adam's self life. Resurrection results in manifestations of unique judgment calls.
There are no moral boxes that are the "end all" of moral conclusion for life. What can we say morally about a tragic car accident? Only that it should not have happened, or someone is responsible.
We go beyond the box to God's mind and see His glory in the face of Jesus Christ. Here, there are no limits. People are "taken out" of the ministry by getting stuck in the "it should not have happened," or "if you had been there my brother had not died." (John 11:21)
The epistle of II Corinthians reveals the other reality. We are a fragrance like roasted lamb that drifts through the air crossing borders and boundaries. Some people hear the railings against God, His people, life itself; others recognize the life of a walk with the living God.
No one has a definitive answer for the mystery we call life except the Mystery we call Christ. He is unique.
