The Promise. Will God throw away His magnificent creation?

On five occasions, while creating the heavens and the earth, God stepped back to admire His work and announced that His creation was “good.” Although we have not cared for “our home” as we should, abusing it and ourselves in so many respects, why would we believe that God will just throw away His magnificent creation?

In the Book of Revelation, Jesus references a New Heaven and a New Earth and then declares, “Behold, I make all things new.”

What a promise! “All things new.” Surely that means that the difficult times we experience now are only temporary and that the New Heaven and Earth will offer a far more substantial world; one that offers the hope of perfect health instead of sickness and death; a world that offers pleasure, peace and joy instead of sadness, war, violence and adversity.

Without the hope of a New Heaven and New Earth, there really is no hope at all.”

“All things new.” It is His promise.
