Prophecy addresses our wills with an invitation to participate in God's will. When we witness we do not recruit or propagandize; we clear the ground where decisions are made, try to throw some light on the intersection between time and eternity, and invite entrance into that clarity where the "narrow way" begins. Law tells us how God is involved in our lives. Prophecy tells us how we are involved in God's life.
~ Eugene Peterson, Reversed Thunder, 114.
