The Gospel Story re-writes human tragedy and injustice through the cross of Christ, who placed all sin, injustice and oppression on His own back, so that humans could be justified before a perfectly Holy God. Therefore we can deal with our enemies in a more gracious manner, knowing that God is both our advocate warrior, contending for us. We have nothing to prove to anyone else!
