The Bible has such a good plot. Ever stop to think about that?
It starts with God, an eternal, omniscient, all-powerful being. He has an inspiration and makes a living, breathing masterpiece. Man has perfect harmony with God, but through their actions, they are separated from God, and a barrier is formed between them, and since God has no fault, he can't look upon sin. But because he misses that connection he used to have with man, he sets down rules to mend the rift between them. Yet, they don't always follow those rules so the barrier between them is always there, so he gives them a way to become blameless. To sacrifice something else in their place. Something innocent. So, in order to have a relationship with God again, they sacrifice a perfect lamb to regain that harmony. Humans live for years this way, sinning and then sacrificing a lamb in their place. But the connection isn't perfect, because it's always being broken. So, finally, God gives up what's close to his heart, his innocent son, a perfect lamb, to go and be the sacrifice for all of mankind to close that rift once and for all. And as Jesus is the grave, he takes the keys of death and rescues those who were unable to live perfect lives earlier and were willing to repent. And at the end, he raises back to life, victorious. God is good at plot development. Just saying.

About Me!Hannah writes to satisfy her imagination. She's written six books so far--five of which need to be rewritten--and is working on a seventh. She ranges through a variety of genres, but favors contemporary YA, fixing broken characters. She wants to use her writing to change people and bring hope. She's currently going to college for Nursing and that takes up most of her writing time. She's a rather stereotypical writer, talking to imaginary friends, eavesdropping on people at the store, secretly being nosy, stashing herself away in her room with a paper and pen and chocolate and her teddy bear. She loves Jesus, the way the morning smells, her family of seven (four siblings), old movies, fairy tales, candles at night and helping people. She writes on another blog at nerdywriter.blogspot.com to hopefully build her chances of publication. My Author Site:Archives
