Jesus didn’t come to be a metaphor. He didn’t come to save you in some sort of ephemeral way. He came to save you; a dying and dead person in a dying and dead world. So he healed people who were blind and deaf and crippled and mute, and with this he proved that he is true God and that he has all power over nature and decay and entropy. And he raised the dead to prove that he is greater than death. And all of this he did for unworthy people to show his love for undeserving sinners.
