God The Father And The Mission Of Jesus Christ

God the Father and the Mission of Jesus Christ A Tract Book Essay By Anthony J. Fejfar, B.A., J.D., Esq., Coif © Copyright 2007 by Anthony J. Fejfar In the Christian Gospels, God the Father is portrayed as sending his Son, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, to Earth to perform the mission of redeeming mankind from Original Sin, and spreading the Good News of the Gospel of Liberation. From a modern point of view, some might object and argue that God the Father should not have sent His Son to be crucified, but instead should have come Himself. I argue that the mission of Jesus Christ can only really be understood in the context of a royalist point of view. Western Civilization is based upon modified Patriarchy. In an extreme patriarchal culture it is apparent that an authoritarian Father would simply murder his son to prevent the son from trying to take control of the Father’s Kingdom, when the son was old enough to rule. Instead, in Western Civilization, feudal culture developed the office of a Prince who would rule only after the death of his Father. This is primogeniture. Inheritance of the eldest son. Given the foregoing, I argue that God the Father, as Emperor, send his Son, as King, on a mission. This is exactly the kind of mission that an earthly King might send his son, a Prince. Recall, that God the Father, of course knew that Jesus would resurrect from the dead and return to life. So, just as a Father King would send his son, the Prince, off to fight a war, or win a crusade prior to his becoming King, so too, God the Father

sent Jesus off to bring victory over death by reason of the Cross. Jesus was a victor on the Cross, he conquered sin and death, and brought about a new reality. Thus, I conclude that it was appropriate that God the Father send His Son, Jesus Christ, in His place to conquer sin and death on Earth and redeem mankind.
