God's Final Week - 0

Introduction

INTRODUCTION

I had always felt life first as a story – and if there is a story there is a story teller.

— G.K. Chesterton

Life is a story. And there are few things more deeply woven into our hearts as human beings than our fascination with epic tales of worthy struggle, heroic sacrifice, and ultimate triumph over evil. Yet sadly, so few of us today remember that we ourselves are all caught up in just such a grand, ancient tale.

Somehow, we forget that the history of the world and our own lives are written by the same hand.

The story of mankind’s birth, fall, bondage, redemption, reconciliation, and restoration is truly the greatest story ever told. What’s more, I believe that God has a precise and mathematically beautiful master plan for telling this story. And we are now living in its final chapter.

Jesus Christ, the Light of the World and the King of Eternity, is coming back.

Aside from revealing to you the general season of the Messiah’s return, my aim in this book is simply to remind you of a truth you’ve always known in your heart. I want to remind you that you are a part of this epic story.

How will you write your closing act?
