1042. The creation is waiting for the unveiling of the sons of God

The creation is waiting for the unveiling of the sons of God - 2 Corinthians 5:16-21, Romans 8:18-21

2 Corinthians 5:16-21

16 Wherefore henceforth (from now) know we no man (one) after the flesh (according to the old nature): yea, though (even if) we have known Christ after the flesh (according to the old nature), yet now henceforth know we him no more (no longer).

17 Therefore if any man be in (resting within) Christ (the messiah), he is (there is) a new creature (creation): old things (the ancient things) are passed away; behold, all things (they) are become new (freshly new).

18 And all things (as a whole) are of God, who hath reconciled (reconnected) us to himself by Jesus Christ (the messiah), and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation (the reconnection);

19 To wit, that God was in (resting within) Christ (the messiah), reconciling (reconnecting) the world (kosmos: the arrangement) unto himself, not imputing (counting) their trespasses (the falling aside) unto them; and hath committed unto (placed in) us the word (logos: the spoken word as connected to the inner thoughts) of reconciliation (reconnection).

20 Now then we are ambassadors (to be an elder, take precedence) for Christ (the messiah), as though God did beseech you (is beseeching) by us: we pray you in Christ's (the messiah) stead, be ye reconciled to God.

21 For He hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no (not) sin; that we might be (become) made the righteousness of God in him.

Romans 8:18-21

18 For I reckon that the sufferings (evil suffered) of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed (exposed or open to view) in us.

19 For the earnest expectation (anxious looking with outstretched hand) of the creature (creation) waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

20 For the creature (creation) was made subject (to submit) to vanity (disappointing misery), not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected (submitted) the same in hope (the expectation of future good),

21 Because the creature (creation) itself also shall be delivered (set free) from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty (freedom of glory) of the children of God.
