When Jesus invites sinners, ‘Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest,’ He immediately adds, 'take my yoke upon you, and learn from me’ (Matt. 11:28-29). To come to him includes taking his yoke upon us, being subject to his direction and guidance, learning from him and being obedient to him. If we are unwilling to make such a commitment, then we have not truly placed our trust in him.

Deus designou o casamento para nos mostrar como Jesus se relaciona com sua Igreja,a sua noiva. (...) A relação entre Cristo e a Igreja não varia com a cultura. É a mesma para todas as gerações. Não é reversível. Já um papel de liderança ou de governo que pertence a Cristo e não à Igreja.

"God’s speech to us by His Son is the culmination of His speaking to mankind and is His greatest and final revelation to mankind in this period of redemptive history. The exceptional greatness of the revelation that comes through the Son, far exceeding any revelation in the old covenant, is emphasized again and again throughout chapters 1 and 2 of Hebrews. These facts all indicate that there is a finality to the revelation of God in Christ and that once this revelation has been completed, no more is to be expected."

God's faithfulness means that God will always do what He said and fulfill what He has promised.

God's wisdom means that God always chooses the best goals and the best means to those goals.

If we think it is unfair for us to be represented by Adam, then we should also think it is unfair for us to be represented by Christ and to have His righteousness imputed to us by God.
