Aim: To be effective in God's world—as we follow His faith-directives.
Doctrine: Fixing things God's way requires the church's diligent use of gospel principles, which call for all the faithful to serve Christ's ends in a priority-ordered way.
Exegesis: How the church may effectively fix things God's way: by faith, involving the whole body (vv. 11-12); by faith, remembering our Lord's gracious covenant (v. 16); by faith, valuing the Redeemer's atonement (vv. 20-21).
Further application: Why fixing things God's way is so refreshing: because it glorifies our Savior, and it actually achieves great things.
Key verse: v. 20 ''After him Baruch the son of Zabbai carefully repaired the other section, from the buttress to the door of the house of Eliashib the high priest.''
