Holy Scripture bears witness to life as God intended it and intends it still. It also witnesses to what has been made of life east of Eden. Preaching and poetic witness to life ""through faith for faith"" (Rom 1:17), therefore, must be attempted with humility and with empathy for all sorts and conditions of human being, looking to Jesus who ""humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross"" (Phil 2:8).
