Christian theologians use a variety of metaphors to illustrate the various aspects of the gospel, each capturing different dimensions of its meaning and significance.
These metaphors, drawn from various aspects of life-legal, familial, agricultural, military, and more-help convey the multifaceted nature of the gospel and its impact and depth of believers' lives.
Each metaphor offers a different lens through which to understand the richness and depth of what Jesus has accomplished.
