Musing – Seven Cs in God’s Eternal Plan.


Hebraic Musing – Seven Cs in God’s Eternal Plan.
The Bible’s entire message is summarized on one page in these seven past, present and future accounts:*
CREATION – God Created the Universe and Declared it “Very Good”.  Gen.1:1 - In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.   Gen1:31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. NIV
CORRUPTION – Sin and Death entered the world.   Rom. 8:22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.
CATASTROPHE – Judgement, the Great Noahaic Flood.  Gen. 6:17 I am going to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish.  
CONFUSION –The Tower of Babel where God forced people to spread across the Earth.  Gen. 11:9 That is why it was called Babel—because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth.   
CHRIST – Jesus came to show THE WAY of Salvation from Sin & Death.   Gal. 4:4-5 But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law,  to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons.
CROSS – Jesus Christ paid our penalty.  1 Pet.3:18 For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.
CONSUMATION –Restoration of a new heaven and a new earth without any curse!  Rev. 20:14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire.   21:1 1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.     Rev. 22:1 1 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city.   Rev. 23:3-5 No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him.  They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5 There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever.   
He’s coming soon!  Rev. 22:12 “Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done.
Points to ponder   or   RSVP
Did the Master Designer plan all this right from the BEGINNING?
Will God’s creation be as good, or better, at the End than it was at the Beginning?
Conclusion (one more C) is found in the final chapter in Rev. 22:13
“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.”
Sing to the Lord a new song… God made the world in seven days. Adam sinned and all men fell away. Jesus came to redeem my soul. He died upon the cross, and He made me whole!  Sing to the Lord
