You

For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you? Indeed, you are our glory and joy. — 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20

I know this feeling. Every time I watch you, our college interns, and young staff, I experience a sense of hope and joy. It's a glory we share with home churches and others who have served as your guides. You give us hope.

Quaternity?

You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me ⏤ John 5:39

We profess that God is one, in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. But in our conversation, we can sound like the Bible is also divine. The Scriptures are God's message (Greek logos) to a called-out, chosen people. In them, God reveals himself and shows us how to live an eternal kind of life with him. They are a message, breathed by the message-Giver.

Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. — Matthew 7:13-14

What if Broadway is a parade route to the arena? The way for combatants exploited by principalities and powers (and bots?) to join a flesh and blood brawl, a battle with no clear sides. A few call for shalom, but who can hear them over the din?
