The Bible tells the story of the beginning of the world in Genesis and the end of the world in Revelation. It’s the story of man from beginning to end; from the fall into sin to redemption to God’s ultimate victory over evil. It’s all found in the pages of the Bible.
GENESIS - REVELATION -
The sun is created The sun is no longer needed
Satan wins Satan loses
Sin enters the human race Sin is banished from existence
People run & hide from God People are invited to live with God
People are cursed The curse is lifted
Tears are shed with sorrow for sin No more sin, no more tears or sorrow
The garden of Eden & earth are cursed God’s city is glorified; earth is made new
Paradise is lost Paradise is regained
People are doomed to death Death defeated; believers live forever
ANGELS
Angels are spiritual beings created by God to help accomplish his work on earth. Angels act as messengers, protect God’s people, offer encouragement, give guidance, bring punishment, patrol the earth, and fight the forces of evil. There are both good and bad angels. The bad angels, who are otherwise known as demons, are allied with Satan. They have considerably less power and authority than good angels. Once evil is eradicated the good angels main role with be to offer continuous praise to Almighty God.
Next continues our look at Revelation. Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing.
In His Name & for His Glory,
