An epic poem based on The Drama of Scripture:
Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story
Finding Our Place in the Biblical Story
By Craig G. Bartholomew and Michael W. Goheen
Prologue: The Bible as Grand Story
Interlude: A Kingdom Story Waiting for an Ending:
Act 4: The Coming of the King: Redemption Accomplished
Act 5: Spreading the News of the King:
The Mission of the Church
Act 6: The Return of the King: Redemption Completed
Act 4: The Coming of the King: Redemption Accomplished
The King and His Kingdom Has Come
The King is coming—rejoice!
Though sin has us broken at our broken choice
The King will be our Lord
His people escaping judgment and judgment’s sword
Redemption is coming and all will be made new
Transparency—He will see us through
The King is here! His Kingdom has come.
Redemption is accomplished in its sum
This is how act four has its end,
With the Alpha and the Omega declaring, “It is finished.”
And having the last word on our sin
