tools (like internet) good vs evil aspect...
The derailing of creation (Gen 3) and the re-railing creation Heb 10:11-13 (cf Psa 110) priests were always standing (their work was never finished), but Christ is SEATED! (once for all time victory over every enemy)
Hence the triumphant supremacy of Christ (Eph 1:20, 1Pe 3:22)
Christianity has this view of Christ alone! (not the truncated liberal view)
A survey of the unchurched showed 90% of church attendees where there for preaching!
