Contents:
From sacred garden to holy city : experiencing the presence of God -- Thrown from the throne : re-establishing the sovereignty of God -- Dealing with the devil : destroying the source of evil -- The slaughter of the Lamb : accomplishing the redemption of creation -- Feasting from the tree of life : reinvigorating the lives of people from every nation -- Strong foundations and solid walls : living securely among the people of God.
Subject: God has given us the reasons for creation and our existence in the Bible, "by resolving an intricate plot that sheds light on the entire story," Alexander writes. Using this theory to start from the denouement, or resolution, in Revelation's last verses and work backward, Alexander pieces together the Bible's overarching plot. The resulting picture reveals the reasons for creation and life that have eluded those who seek to answer life's biggest questions without first placing themselves in God's story. --from publisher description
