HE CAME NOT MERELY FOR THE PERIPHERAL, BUT FOR THE CENTRAL... TO BRING THE ANSWER TO MANKIND'S REAL DILEMMA: :

"He has come not just to eliminate the peripheral results of man's fall (though these will be totally removed at His second coming); He is here to cut the nerve of man's real dilemma, to solve the problem from which all other problems flow. The 'condition of man' is not what modern man thinks it is. Man is a sinner who needs an overwhelming love. Jesus has come to save His people from their sins. This is not to say that He has no interest in these other things now, but we must not get the matters reversed--the central thing is central."
