Kill the Dragon, Get the Girl!

The Bible is a history book. But how can we sum up the history which it relates? What is the content of the cosmic story that sprawls from Genesis to Revelation? Today, I want to show you that one good way to summarize this story is by the phrase “Kill the dragon, get the girl.” Both Adam and Christ had the task of dragon-slaying so they could protect their bride. Adam failed in this task; he stood by and let his bride be the guinea pig on whom the dragon practiced his wiles. Christ, as we know, succeeded in this task, effectively conquering the dragon through His death, resurrection, and ascension in power to the throne of God. From this, in turn, men, you can and should learn to drive away the dragon and protect your wives and daughters! We can all learn to praise, magnify, love and glorify Jesus Christ, our great dragon-slaying champion, whose bride we corporately are.
