Taking the Land, Part 17
Many Christians have the simplistic understanding that the next life will be a matter of the reward of heaven and eternal bliss for those who accepted the Lord and a corresponding eternal punishment for those who did not. There is far more to the plan of God than that. Basic to understanding the coming kingdom, we must understand that the Lord will restore mankind and the earth to its original purpose, the paradise that it was intended to be. We also need to understand the process of restoration through which this will be accomplished.
