Salvation History Conclusion.

Salvation History Conclusion.

Well I finally did it, I finished it. I apologise (sorry - apologize - these
American spellings get me every time) that the last few chapters are more brief - but I hope sufficient to outline the main points of the theme. I also apologise for the time it has taken to complete. I lost my way and wanted to include more in it, but God didn't have that plan so I got stuck until I deleted the extra material. Here is the finished version.

The great story of God and his plan for all eternity is a wonderful theme. I hope I have managed to transmit some of the wonder of it as I worked through the details.

I hope also you can see how the Bible fits together. Two great themes are at the heart of it all - Covenant and Redemption. God's desire was to have a people with whom he could live in covenant relationship. Man fell from that. The Bible is the story of how that happened and how God has acted to bring us back, to redeem us, to that relationship. Then we see how God will, in the future, actually have that sort of relationship with man.

Everything else in the Bible is but padding - important but not the main theme. If we understand the main theme we can see how the other bits fit in. If we don't understand the main theme then the Bible really doesn't make sense. Relationship - Covenant and Redemption - is what it is all about.

I hope you have enjoyed the reading of it as much as I enjoyed the writing.

I hope to publish it as a book in the future - fully revised and with full chapters at the end. I will put the name of the book up here when it is published.

Yours in Christ,
John.
