The Unity and Fulfillment
God will restore the entire creation. He’ll do that at the end of the ages of the ages. That’s His final endgame. However, He also has an intermediate endgame for this present age. God’s purpose is to conform you to the image of His Son. Conforming to the image of Christ is closely related to two other events. Those events are His appearing and abiding presence in fullness. The eighth chapter of Romans gives you wonderful insight into God’s plan.
The creation waits in eager expectation for the revelation of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present time. Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. ~ Romans 8:19-23
“Revelation” is “apokalypsin” in Greek. It’s the removal of the veil. What is this veil? We’ve already defined it through Scripture. The veil is the flesh. The “revelation of the sons of God” is removing the flesh. It’s removing the fleshly nature. The “adoption as sons” is the “redemption of our bodies.” God is going to redeem your body. You’ll get a new spiritual body.
Now we know that if the earthly tent [physical body] we live in is dismantled, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. For in this tent we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. So while we are in this tent, we groan under our burdens, because we do not wish to be unclothed but clothed, so that our mortality may be swallowed up by life. And God has prepared us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to come. ~ 2 Corinthians 5:1-5
