I was having a conversation about biblical history the other day, why the books are in the order they are in, etc., and the conversation turned to the dates the Old Testament books were written. Eventually, I ended up explaining the difference between B.C. and A.D. and how 1450 B.C. came before 1410 B.C. using the concept of a number line, and negative and positive numbers. But in explaining where the change from "negative" to "positive" occurred I used this analogy:
"Jesus is the hinge on which all of human history turns."
I never thought I'd be able to use that phrase in a conversation. I almost cried at having a legitimate opportunity to finally say it. Thank you Jesus!
