In a continuation of the discussion of the nature of sin and salvation and hermeneutics, the discussion turns to how the rule of faith, or biblical hermeneutics centered on the person of Christ, brings out Christ's deliverance from the human predicament through his defeat of the rule of death over human lives. This is not an answer defined by law, but a deliverance from this orientation.

In this talk Paul Axton gave at a local restaurant, the focus is on outlining the Gospel of Matthew as Jesus as Temple recapitulation, the implication of which is Jesus taking up the historical, social, and legal situation of the Temple and Israel, and this is worked out by Gillian Rose and G.W.F. Hegel as addressing the injustice of the law and the Temple or the City of Man.

Paul Axton preaches: Jesus says he will provide no sign other than that of Jonah to the Jews, which is a kind of non-sign in their value system. Jesus, like Jonah, presents a very different picture of God than Nahum and the Jews of Jonah and Jesus generation. This God cares for all and would go to the depths of the earth to retrieve everyone.
