The Sovereign Plan of God is progressively revealed throughout the Scriptural Narrative from Genesis to Revelation. Yet that same message has been largely misunderstood during the last two thousand years. Therefore, many people are still asking the same three fundamental questions at some stage during their life:-

​

• Why are we here?
• Why do we die?
• Is there life after death? 

Many people go through life never finding an answer to these questions, simply because they have never been taught the true scriptural message. However, the whole Sovereign Plan of God for humanity can be summed in just seven short lines:-

This chiastic metaphor in seven short lines encapsulates the whole Sovereign Plan of God. Through this structure we can see God’s unchanging desire of all mankind to live on earth in the paradise condition of Gan-`Eden. The first man Adam was placed in Gan-`Eden, so that he could have a meaningful relationship with God. In the same way when planet earth will finally be restored and renewed under the rulership of Yeshua in the 1000-year period following his return, all mankind remaining will again live in Gan-Eden and bring glory to God, which is the whole obligation of man.

Humans were never meant to die, but because of the deceptive action of the Adversary, God had to work through Avraham and Isra’el to bring the Messiah into the world at the climax of Isra’el’s history. Yeshua HaMashiach (Messiah) is the one who will ultimately bring about the redemption of all mankind, through his redemptive reign.
