A way Chance could be seen as Jesus was through Ben. Ben was an influential man in America. He was very high up in the government and had powerful friends. Ben knew Chance was a smart man, so he has him meet the president. The president quoted Chance on national television and that’s when the whole world knew of Chance the gardener or Chauncey Gardener.
