A Poem
If by chance I am here
then by chance I will speak
that by chance you might know
I had no chance when I was weak
Weak in sin, weak in soul
but now in him, I am made whole
Weak and wandering about
living life in shame and doubt
If by chance crucified
If by chance he bled and died
If by chance he arose
If by chance the story goes
Then by chance I can see
that "by chance" his name must be
for by chance all this was done
by the one who was God's son
And if by chance I am here
then by chance I will say
that by chance you might know
Jesus is the truth, the life, the way
then by chance I will speak
that by chance you might know
I had no chance when I was weak
Weak in sin, weak in soul
but now in him, I am made whole
Weak and wandering about
living life in shame and doubt
If by chance crucified
If by chance he bled and died
If by chance he arose
If by chance the story goes
Then by chance I can see
that "by chance" his name must be
for by chance all this was done
by the one who was God's son
And if by chance I am here
then by chance I will say
that by chance you might know
Jesus is the truth, the life, the way

How in the world?
How is it that I find statements like this in my reference textbooks?
"The One God of all cannot be limited to any one perception of God, whether Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or any other. This is probably the greatest hurdle most Christians have to face."
Yep. Page 258 of Evans, Craig A., ed. From Prophecy to Testament. Peabody, MA: Hendrickson Publishers, Inc. The author of the section mentioned is named James A. Sanders (Ancient Biblical Manuscript Center and Claremont Graduate University, Claremont, CA). Go figure... he taught at Union Theological Seminary.
I guess this hurdle is just one that we have to jump over in the race of life. I've cleared it... and so have the NT writers (Jn 14:6; 1 Tim 2:5). Have you?

Posting-Lite
Sorry for the lack of posting recently. I'm working two jobs and going through a grad class. This is going to be a busy "season" of life for us... hopefully a shorter than longer "season." I'll try and post new resources when I can, but bear with us and try going back through old posts and freshening up on great past resources. Thanks!
