The Christomorphic Life

[Christ's] death becomes metaphorically paradigmatic for the obedience of the community . . . the fundamental norm of Pauline ethics is the christomorphic life.
--Richard Hays, The Moral Vision of the New Testament (HarperOne, 1996), 46

'. . . always carrying in the body the death of Jesus . . .' --2 Cor 4:10
