The Christian life is very physical. We are here because God creates a physical world in which his glory may be manifested, and he creates human beings in his image to manifest his glory. Through the sin of the first Adam, human beings abandon their vocation; through the victory over sin of the second Adam, human beings recover their vocation, in him.
God wants us to see that every time an enemy hurts us, he is present. Not only is he present, but we can trust him. We know that he loves us. He hasn't abandoned us.
In the world, no one does good for the specific purpose of benefiting one’s enemies. But benefiting one’s enemies—lavishly and intentionally—is the massive and immovable cornerstone of Jesus’ own program of doing good.
The Lord’s Supper is extraordinary for many reasons, not the least of which is that in it we see Jesus delivering all ten of the Works of Mercy to humanity.
