Bible characters LARPing (Live Action Role Play)

When you open the Bible and look at the Table of Contents, the Bible looks like a collection of books. The books of the Old Testament were written about some people that God chose to use, to tell a story. The people didn't know it, but they were like actors. They thought they were living their lives just like we do, but God worked behind the scenes, so that everything he needed to tell his story, happened.

A different analogy might be that of fish swimming in a stream. The fish swam where they wanted, and unbeknownst to them, the stream nudged them where it would.

The result of the collaboration between free people and a sovereign God is that a book was produced which contains the literal-historical record of the people living their lives, and at the same time, an invisible layer was produced that says something the human authors were unaware of. The book itself is an analogy to the fish and the stream. The revelation of the invisible God was done... invisibly.
