If God’s kingdom were a modern business, we would probably access its various services by phone. Those services, like any other business, would be listed by number on a recording with the most requested ones first and the least requested last. The following is the hypothetical call of a modern Christian:
Rrrrrrrring…….Rrrrrrrring…….Rrrrrrrring!
