IN THE WORDS OF JIHADI JOHN
By @quicklikesand @faiworldwide 

“If we are walking mirrors meant to bear His Image, we were shattered in “the mighty disaster theologians call ‘the Fall.’”[15] Jesus’ judicial propitiation for us through the Cross offers a regenerative work through the Spirit that resurrected Him from the grave, a mighty transformation of all our broken shards into a restored reflection of the Holy One who made us. We can look like Him again. We can bear His Image in appropriate ways again, and bear witness in word and deed. In the words of Paul, we put God’s manifold, illuminating wisdom on blast to the very rebels who underestimated the death of Jesus to begin with.[16] In the words of Jihadi John, we are the people of the cross. We are reshaped by that day at the Place of the Skull into our own cruciform witness of the slaughtered and resurrected King…”
