"Welcome" to Satan's Sandbox! It's not a welcome place, but it's what we have been given.

"Welcome" to Satan's Sandbox! It's not a welcome place, but it's what we have been given. We are educated by God's Word, and instructed by His prophets through the auspices of the Holy Spirit, to reflect the image of Christ to the "world" so that they too will notice, and be given the divine chance to repent and embrace eternal life. We are (all of us) sinners, alike, guilty and deserving of death eternal. It is especially easy to classify this or that sinful activity as being worse than what you and I do in our daily activities; inadvertently breaking one or more of the Commandments. But Christ has provided a system of Redemption that entails repentance (changing our ways and being sorry for the pain it has caused our Lord). He has "paid the price" for every human that has ever lived both in terms of creation as well as propitiation for our sins. Therefore, we belong to Him. His sufferings will always be unspeakable and unknowable. An eternity is offered to those who might be blessed with saving Grace and all that goes along with it, so that their temporal experience and testimony will be an eternal testament as to how sin wreaked such havoc upon this world, and for that reason must NEVER be again tampered with.
Any thinking person is held to reasoning that since God is Eternal, that He has not been just sitting around in a vacuum for eons with nothing being created in the vastness of the cosmos. And that planet earth is not His only work of creation.
I posit that it might readily be assumed that for every galaxy in the cosmos, there could be a "creation" of His awaiting the Day of Reconciliation wherein Jesus and the heavenly Host will "relocate" and bring "heaven" down to this planet as it is foretold of after it has been "cleansed" of all mankind's works, and of course, all the sin and unrepentant sinners alike are destroyed. There are practically an unlimited number of galaxies out there, and each one is plenty large enough to contain at least one planet that would house a Creation of His.
That's what makes sense to me. I'd welcome your thinking on the matter.
Shel,
