“Do today’s Marxist activists have any reason to say they hate above anyone else in the world the church leaders most celebrated by our cultural elites? Or do they find that these shepherds not only don’t hinder, but even help their cause?”

“The triplex office of Mediator is necessarily prophet, priest, and king. We might ask the question, Why these three? An answer is given to us, and that response is given in terms of our need. Christ is the Prophet because of our ignorance; Christ is the Priest because of our alienation; Christ is the King because of our inability to return to God. We are ignorant, we are alienated, and we are utterly unable. God, in sending Christ as the promised covenant Mediator, fully accomplishes our salvation. He meets our ignorance and sends a Prophet to teach us. He sees us in our alienation when we are enemies and reaches out to restore us, to reconcile us. Thirdly, He knows we are dead in our trespasses and sins, and so Christ is the King- the King who has power and expresses His power by calling us out of death and into new life and keeping us in this life until the coming of His heavenly kingdom.”

“And the Lamb of God not only did this, but was chastised on our behalf, and suffered a penalty He did not owe, but which we owed because of the multitude of our sins; and so He became the cause of the forgiveness of our sins, because He received death for us, and transferred to Himself the scourging, the insults, and the dishonour, which were due to us, and drew down on Himself the apportioned curse, being made a curse for us.”
