“For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God created beforehand so that we should walk into them.”
Ephesians 2:10
The 2014 sci-fi film “Edge of Tomorrow” is like my favourite film – Groundhog Day – but for geeks rather than romantics.
Like all the best plots it includes a Messiah like figure and a bride to be rescued. In this one there are the added bonuses of the Messiah laying down his life for the bride and being resurrected again.
There are a surprisingly large amount of films involving time loops. The feature of the Groundhog Day type that I want to bring out is the ability they give their protagonists to map all the details of their looped day down to the smallest detail.
Of course this is the same level of detail that God knows about every day we wake up. In the film, the man in the time loop can tell the woman every thing she needs to know to make the day the most effective it can be.
Jesus can do the same for us. Every day.
