Transcript
Our world is filled with beauty—and ugliness. So much life—and so much death. Why is it like this?
Well, this isn’t the world God made. Genesis tells us God created a perfect world, a “very good” creation free from death and suffering. It was a perfect paradise.
But everything changed when Adam rebelled against God. His choice brought death and suffering into creation. Now all of creation groans.
But that’s not the end! Jesus, the God-man, took our penalty of death on the cross so we could be saved. Someday those who trust Christ will live forever in a new heaven and new earth where there will be no more death or suffering.
