  4. Mistaken Notion “Very often people have come to the New Testament with the presumption that ‘going to heaven when you die’ is the implicit point of it all… They acquire that viewpoint from somewhere, but not from the New Testament.” – N .T. Wright

  5. Biblical Hope: Restoration of Creation • Restoration of creational life (continuity) • Discontinuity? “It is precisely ordinary earthly existence that is redeemed.” – G. C. Berkhouwer

  6. Biblical Hope: Cosmic Restoration • Restoration of whole human life • Restoration of whole creation

  7. Colossians 1:19-20 “For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in [Jesus], and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.”

  8. As Far as Sin “If redemption does not go as far as the consequences of sin, it is a misnomer, and fails to be redemption…. The salvation of any number of individuals…is not the redemption of what fell but the gathering up of a few splinters,…[and in such a case] Satan’s mischief [would go] further than Christ’s restoration” – J. A. Seiss

  9. Behold! I am coming soon.
