"the power of the dragon is strangely appealing. A dragon slayer can be enticed to use the dragon's power - And so become a dragon themselves... ...and even when the power of the dragon does its best to entice Jesus - Jesus doesn't give in. Jesus resists the dragon in a surpising way. He surrenders his life and willingly enters the belly of the beast... ... Jesus trusted in God's power to create new life on the other side of chaos and death and he called his followers to confront the dragon in the same way... ...resist the temptation to use the violent, destructive ways of the dragon. And also, don't be afraid of it."
