Meaning of History

"Our generation is strangled by fear: fear for man, for his future, and for the direction in which we are driven against our will and desire.l And out of this comes a cry of illumination concerning the meaning of the existence of mankind, and concerning the goal to which we are directed. It is a cry for an answer to the old question of the meaning of history."

Hendrikus Berkhof, quoted by Anthony A. Hoekema, The Bible and the Future, p. 23
