If you ever watch Marvel’s Avenger movies, you’ll see this snapshot of Thanos trying to use the infinity stones glove to wipe out the entire world with the flick of his fingers (Avengers: End Game). Just shortly before he snaps his fingers, he utters his famous on liner, “I am indubitable!” (Not). It’s “I am inevitable!”
The story went like this, big bad guy collected all of the infinity stones and placed them all in the gauntlet and uses the power from the infinity stones to annihilate half the world population so the universe will equate itself. Thanos succeeded, but the Avengers manage to reverse the effect.
This is sort of a picture of the Adamic fall. The big bad guy in this scenario is not one but two big bad guys, namely Death and Hell (Hades). Death and hell uttered the dreadful words, “I am inevitable!”. And those affected were not half the population of the human race, but all. Death spread to all of humanity.
But as in the movie, the Avengers were able to redeem the lost half, so in the real story of humanity, a great number of us (the predestined ones) are redeemed by the one true hero of the human story, and that is the LORD and SAVIOUR JESUS. “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12). “For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, JESUS CHRIST.” (Romans 5:17).
And as in the movie, Thanos got the gauntlet and was going to use it to try to annihilate the world; flicked his fingers, and nothing! Nothing happened because Tony Stark aka Iron Man managed to transfer the infinity stones to his glove! And so, he (Iron Man) used to infinity stones in his Iron Man gloves to banish Thanos and his minions to smithereens. The LORD JESUS conquered over death and hell, “and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them:” (Revelation 20:13b). “And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire.” (Revelation 20:14).
There was a price though in saving the world from Thanos’ master plan; and that was salvation costs Iron Man his life. When Iron Man used the infinity stones to banish/destroy Thanos and his henchmen, he exposed himself to so much radiation that it killed him. Our salvation from sin, from death, and from hell cost our REDEEMER his own life! “JESUS, when HE had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; and the graves were opened;” (Matthews 27:50-52a). The LORD JESUS took upon HIMSELF our sins and exposed HIMSELF to the judgment and punishment of our sins. HE died for us! “And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without the shedding of blood is no remission.” (Hebrews 9:22). But unlike the movie, our LORD JESUS didn’t remain dead. HE was resurrected the third day. Our SAVIOUR rose triumphant over all; and HE remains alive forevermore. See Luke 24:1-9. “HE (JESUS) is not here, but is risen:” (Luke 24:6).
