The Bible speaks of a return to Eden, so-to-speak, only in the fullness of what Eden typified—a Cosmic renewal with the New Heavens and New Earth in a perpetual state of Shalom!’<br /><br />’This is the goal of redemptive history: The recovery of Sacred Space consummating with the restoration of the state of Shalom in the perpetual Shabbat of God’s rest—all accomplished in the Person and Work of Christ!<br /><br />We must remember that the purpose and goal of God in redemptive history is not simply the “salvation” of (some) men through the forgiveness of sins; this is too small a goal! The purpose of God is nothing less than the Recovery of Sacred Space—the “redemption” of the Cosmos.’ <br /><br />Yes, this is in agreement with the figurative literal language of Revelation 21-22. Mounce states in his Revelation commentary there is fulfilment of the promise of a New Heaven and New Earth (p. 368). The earth shall be renewed (p.368) with of course resurrected persons in Christ. As we have discussed previously on this blog and I have noted on Dr. RNM, evangelicals largely misunderstand heaven and do not properly teach on it.<br /><br />Good work, Saint GGM of Colorocko.Dr. Russell Norman Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703130625190233670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6507235926229522907.post-23054376979756220062012-05-07T20:05:07.918-06:002012-05-07T20:05:07.918-06:00‘When we think of Shalom, we usually think of Peac...‘When we think of Shalom, we usually think of Peace; and when we think of Peace, we usually think of the absence of conflict,’<br /><br />Well...we also think of the sixties...man.
