Third Answer 57
Back to 'The Third Temptation of Christ
57.Why does Christ interfere with our right to be ourselves?
The children of Adam are not able to perform the high roles to which God has called them.
Only children of God can fulfill these callings.
Therefore our first, adamic nature must die so the new Divine nature that has been placed in us can come to maturity and participate in the high calling of the Kingdom of God.
