Frankly, I find the “poor and uneducated” usually understands this principle. It's normally those who strive for legalism who don't understand that Christ has set us free from the law that gets wrapped around the axle.
But I've got to ask you the same question as I asked Lee and that is What do you think about the order of Salvation from the physical death of Christ to the Resurrection. Did Christ enter heaven inbetween his death and Resurrection or was he figuratively sleeping in the grave. I tend to believe he enter heaven, and that he did not rest in Heaven but was doing some more work atoning for us, and after the Resurrection he rest. Of course this is all speculation on my part since I'm not all up on the nit and picky, and fine print of the Gospel. Anyway back to the final question reworded. Do you believe the Death was the final act between his death and Resurrection. You can either post a comment or freep mail me, Since the subject may not be approiate for the posted article. Response would be appreciated.
Maybe some day when I can handle bigger theological issues I would like to handle the book "The Death of Death in the Death of Christ" by John Owen, I started reading it once but had to put it aside, other things came up and it was really over my head.
