Creation Will Be Set Free

Creation Will Be Set Free

Romans 8:20-22

Excerpt
Some have suggested that this points to life during the millennium, but it is better to see it as the entire created universe celebrating together the glorious state of final redemption and restoration. Paul’s use of personification is striking. As sin brought the curse of death to the physical universe, the day is coming when a new heaven and earth will be in place (2 Pet 3:13Rev 21:1). They will take their place with the children of God in the perfect freedom of a sinless universe. More
