Westfall's argument: identity in Christ means Gentiles and women can represent Christ in any function

Westfall argues: Identity in Christ cuts across competing identities of heritage, race, genetics, or one's genitals. A Jew would never agree an uncircumcised man could represent Jesus's circumcised body, but Paul teaches that being wrapped in Christ means full identification — so a Gentile male can represent Christ in any function. By extension, women are also fully identified with Christ, so their genitals not being like Jesus's does not disqualify them from representing Christ in any function. Mike identifies this as crass reductionism (reducing circumcision to 'genitals' ignores the covenant dimension).
