"Redemption is a tragicomedy leading from suffering incarceration to liberating resurrection. Creation is a fantasy leading from mysterious freedom to the formed structure of existence, comprehensible though not comprehended. Redemption is the story that moves from the binding necessity of existence to the freedom of a new creation. Creation is the tale that begins with freedom and ends with loss."

--Robert Paul Roth, The Theater of God: Story in Christian Doctrines, p. 49
