Bishop Andrews writes:
The Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead gives us a glimpse of our future as human beings; indeed, of the future of all of creation. It is more than a source of comfort for those who ‘walk in the valley of the shadow of death’. It is a demonstration that the valley path actually has a destiny, a goal. Theologian Michael Lloyd reminds us that ‘history is not just a set of random stories being told by different people that don’t amount to anything coherent, as post-modernism would have it. It is going somewhere… God is at work within it, and is committed to bringing it safely to the harbour of His final purpose for it.’
