Paul tells us to keep things ship-shape to respect the deal that was made for us.

God flips the script on what we normally tell ourselves and he does it with an uber powerful gift.

God’s problem solving technique seems counterintuitive to us but it’s a gift we’re urged to re-gift to change our whole life.
