Okay. What feels good to me is to be like Jesus Christ, forever.

I think the Creator who designed me to "feel good" at all, has the right.

I think something different is a man who is so good that even death and the grave cannot destroy Him.
To receive such a man into my innermost being to live in oneness with Him, that I think is radical.
"Radical" in the sense of the definition of the word as - "going to the root of something".
A sinless , death overcoming Man, who can be imparted into my being - going to the "root" of my problem, being "alienated from the life of God" (Eph. 4:8).
That is new. It is called the New Testament.
