Synopsis

Genesis started out with God creating “the heavens and the earth.” When he was done, he “saw that it was very good.” God loved his Creation.

But man, the key player in the picture, refused to cooperate and turned away from God. He was supposed to rule the earth under the Father. Instead what ensued was ruin and disaster. So God pronounced doom upon man and crippled him in four key areas. Their Family relationship came to an end.

God, however went back to that original idea. He has in mind to create “a new heavens and a new earth”, something on a higher level than the first Creation, something that cannot be ruined. To prevent another disaster, God is creating a “new Man” in his own Son to live in that new Creation. Genesis is showing us the process of making that “new Man”. When that Man is complete (in other words, when all of Abraham’s descendants finally make up the Body of Christ), and Man once more assumes his place at the right hand of the Throne of God over the entire universe, then the old will be destroyed and the new world will take its place. And that world God will love deeply. It will be perfect, never to fail – because his own Son will rule over it.
