E X O D U SThe Human Race Is In Trouble.
We've been in trouble for a long time.
Enormous energies have been
and continue to be expended by many,
many men and women
to get us out of the trouble we are in
- to clean up the world's mess.
The most comprehensive term
for what God is doing
to get us out of the mess
we are in is SALVATION.
Salvation is God doing for us
what we can't do for ourselves.
Salvation is the biggest word
in the vocabulary of the people of God.
The Exodus story
continues to be a major means
that God uses
to draw men and women in trouble
out of the mess of history
and into the kingdom of salvaion.
