Bringing Heaven Back to Earth

"

The biblical story of sin and death entering into the world through Adam and Eve, along with the sin and suffering each of us have personally witnessed and experienced, don't make much sense without an eternal perspective. It can all feel like a big mistake, where God's Plan A was thwarted by man's sin and Jesus was the Plan B we needed to put things back together. But the Bible makes it clear that not only was Jesus God's Plan A, but that the sin and fall of mankind that lead up to Jesus were also part of the plan. While this might seem confusing and unexpected, it begins to come into focus when we look at God's overarching goal...to put His glory on full display, and for us to be able to enjoy that with Him for eternity. Our ability to enjoy and to be in God's presence is not possible without the backdrop of sin and suffering and the wonder of God's intervention, through His Son, Jesus.
