"bios (natural life) has, to be sure, a certain shadowy or symbolic resemblance to zoe (spiritual life, the full, shalom kind of life): but only the sort of resemblance there is between a photo and a place, or a statue and a man. a man who changed from having bios to having zoe would have gone through as big a change as a statue which changed from being a carved stone to being a real man. and that is precisely what christianity is about. this world is a great sculptor’s shop. we are the statues and there is a rumour going round the shop that some of us are some day going to come to life.”
