Richardson supports his thesis by addressing two trajectories of Revelation: the general one, called the “Melchizedek Factor,” and the special one, called the “Abraham Factor.” The general idea of the book is that God is not an uninvolved spectator of human history, but is present and actively participates in the history and culture of all the peoples of the world. In “Eternity In Their Hearts”, Richardson builds on two biblical statements: God has set the idea of eternity in the heart of every person (Ecclesiastes 3:11), yet He has not left Himself without testimony (Acts 14:17). His books, “Peace Child” and “Lords of the Earth,” have become points of reference for contemporary Christian missionaries. Having studied at the Prairie Bible Institute and the (Wycliffe) Summer Institute of Linguistics, together with his wife, he worked as a missionary among the Sawi of Papua New Guinea for 15 years, and translated the Bible into their language.
