N. T. Wright Quotes
The Bible Is Not, In Other Words, Simply A List Of True Doctrines Or A Collection Of Proper Moral Commands - Though It Includes Plenty Of Both. The Bible Is Not Simply The Record Of What Various People Thought As They Struggled To Know God And Follow Him, Though It Is That As Well. It Is Not Simply The Record Of Past Revelations, As Though What Mattered Were To Study Such Things In The Hopes That One Might Have One For Oneself. It Is The Book Whose Whole Narrative Is About New Creation, That Is, About Resurrection, So That When Each Of The Gospels Ends With The Raising Of Jesus From The Dead, And When Revelation Ends With New Heavens And New Earth Populated By God's People Risen From The Dead, This Should Come Not As A Surprise But As The Ultimate Fulfillment Of What The Story Had Been About All Along.
