- His mission was not to smooth over or tolerate compromise between God’s will and the preference of individuals.
- Nor was it to accept indifference or a lukewarm attitude in His followers.
- His mission was to challenge complacency and creature comforts.
- People must make a choice between what they want and what God wants.
- Jesus offered his life for his mission in the baptism of fire that was His crucifixion.
