DAY 25
NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH
2 Peter 3:7-14
From Genesis to Revelation, All of GOD’S GIVING, all of what He has done point us to where God wants us to lead. The revelation of Scriptures leads us back to Him and to enjoy His heavenly kingdom. He is about the business of reconciling rebellious men and women to Himself in order that He might have a vast family of sons and daughters who will love and worship Him in spirit and truth. His gifts of creation and redemption are therefore all to end this purpose. (Ephesians 1:3-14).
The Scriptures are always pointing us to what lies ahead. Our attention is always being directed to the age to come. God is about a great thing in history. He is about the restoration of his family and his kingdom. He is about the stupendous task of bringing together the nations into one family reversing the curse of the Fall. He is about the process of bringing to fruition the plan that was conceived at the very beginning to re-unite all things in Christ, in order that his creation might once again be brought back into its creational purity.
