Therefore, in faith in the risen Jesus, men already live in the midst of the transitory world of death from the powers of the new world of life that have dawned in him. There is already true life in the midst of false life, though only in communion with the one who had been crucified by that false life. ‘The future has already begun.’ Jesus’ resurrection already makes possible the impossible, namely reconciliation in the midst of strife, the law of grace in the midst of judgement, and creative love in the midst of legalism.
