Creation’s Groan
By Brad Stroup
The Bible depicts our world as the precious garden which God created in order to nurture and sustain human life. Since the fall of man the entire created order has been stained with the guilt of sin and scripture describes creation as groaning for all the wrong things to be made right. Right now the world is crying out for the return of the Savior who will restore all things, renew this present Earth and completely remove the sin that has contaminated it. In this series we will look at both the positive and negative aspects of how this longing will manifest in the Earth; this will include many surprising details that make it clear that Earth has a personality and is determined to express herself in some powerful ways in the midst of the unfolding of the end time drama.
