As humans, we were created to live forever. If Adam and Eve had obeyed God's commandments, they would never had died. (Genesis 1:28; 2:8, 16, 27; Ecclesiastes 3:10, 11) But when they sinned, they lost perfection and life both for themselves and for their offspring, and death came to reign over mankind as relentless enemy. (Romans 5:12, 14; 1 Corinthians 15:26) Nevertheless, God's purpose to have perfect humans live forever on a paradise earth did not change. Out of his love for mankind, he sent to earth his only- begotten Son, Jesus who gave his perfect life for "many"of Adan's offspring. (Matthew 20:28; John 3:16) Jesus can now use this legal merit of his sacrifice to restore believing humans to life in perfection on a paradise earth. ( 1 Peter 3:18; 1 John 2:2) What grand reason for mankind to "be joyful and rejoice"! - ISAIAH 25:8, 9.
