As the Spirit of God is both the agent and the sustainer of creation, so also the Spirit of God is the inspirer of the word of God, which sets out the hope of restored creation. The scriptures progressively reveal a number of themes that function symbiotically within the divine testimony. Particularly, the language of life, salvation, blessing, and glory build together unto their consummation on the day of the Lord and in the age to come. -John P. Harrigan
