| Introduction | "The will of God is the gladdest, brightest, most bountiful thing possible to conceive, and yet some of us talk of the will of God with a terrific sigh...as if His will were the most calamitous thing that could befall us.... We become spiritual whiners and talk pathetically about 'suffering the will of the Lord.' Where is the majestic vitality and might of the Son of God about that!" -Oswald Chambers "Individualist myths that encourage us to be good strong island rocks in need of nothing and no one devalue exactly what makes us human--other human beings." -Glenn E. Boyd "Intelligence and capability are not enough. There must be the joy of doing something beautiful." -Dr. G. Venkataswamy "Salvation is not an escape from creational life into a 'spiritual' existence: it is the restoration of God's rule over all of creation and in all of human life. Neither is salvation merely the restoration of a personal relationship with God, important as that is. Salvation goes further: it is the restoration of the whole life of humankind and ultimately of the nonhuman creation as well. This is the scope of Biblical salvation." -Drama of Scripture |
