An Extraordinary Bailout
The source draws a parallel between the current economic crisis and humanity's spiritual state in the Bible. The author, Emmy Okoye, argues that both situations involve a need for a "bailout" from a state of bankruptcy. He connects this to the Easter story, where Jesus Christ is presented as the ultimate bailout package for humanity's spiritual debt. Okoye argues that just as the present government attempts to stimulate the economy through spending, God sent his son Jesus Christ to die for humanity's sins. This act, according to Okoye, is a "stimulus plan" to rescue humanity from the spiritual bankruptcy of sin and death. He concludes by emphasizing that accepting Jesus as "head of government" is the key to receiving this spiritual bailout and overcoming the spiritual "recession."
