Raising Jesus from the grave changed everything for all people for all time. This most profound act of God sealed a divine trilogy of events which would provide entree to the divine life Jesus previously claimed He would make available.Now seated beside God's throne, Jesus is the first man ever to be born from the realm of the dead. He is referred to as "the second Adam" and as such, is the progenitor of a new race of people who have fled the influence of the first Adam.Now in a flesh-and-bone body, Jesus identifies all who embrace him as of the same origin and therefore are made one with him. In this union is revealed the mystery of God and of the Christ. Indeed, we are now seen from heaven's balcony as the righteousness of God, even as, heaven's citizenry. He is no longer ashamed to be called our God, as one with Christ we have become part of the divine family.A trove of Scripture taken from the original languages and nuanced for proper context reveal the great heart of God as the existent One who will provide for man's atonement, the jealous One who will not share his glory with another and the loving Father who faithfully attends the work of his hands. Sometimes angry, sometimes jealous, but always patient until the fullness of time was come when He would send forth his Son, the only son of God ever to be born of a woman.In his book, Maragia challenges all who are dissatisfied with religion's paradigms to look beyond contemporary apologetics that view Biblical Psychology as a panacea. He marks the seating of Christ as the event that triggered the promise of God to indwell a tribe of people, about whom he said, "I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and a Father to them, and they shall be my sons and daughters."From the time the breath of the Almighty filled the lungs of the first man, the great Jehovah has shown his desire be intimate with the work of his hands.Raising Jesus is God's backstory to everything we aspire to be.
