He (Christ) bears seven wounds on his
person: Two in his wrists, two in His palms, two in His feet, and one
in His side. Seven is the symbolic number of completion or
Perfection. Seven wounds reflect the completion of His sacrifice and
of that sacrifice's complete perfection.
Christ's sacrifice has completely
healed all that the Fall of Adam brought the pass. As Adam went
before, so Christ came after, the one the antithesis of the other,
and both making this creation a chiasm of Fall and Redemption. We
stand in the center, where it is all in balance about us.
The balance between Adam's Fall
and Christ's sacrifice provides a neutral balance of opposites. We
choose what we are willing to do with this balanced universe.
We tip the scales by our choices, and
by so doing, we change all eternity. We change eternity by the
choices we make here.
There is an eternal balance, with
infinite results, hanging on our every choice. We stand in peril or
stand in glory depending upon our every thought and deed.
Five minutes of mortality are more
precious than all the prior eternities of pre-earth life. Only here
can you demonstrate the faith from which creation itself was born.
