{"product_id":"9781512720600","title":"God's Purpose for His Creation: An Examination of Traditional Teaching","description":"\u003cp\u003eMuch has been written and debated concerning the details of the creation account. In doing so, that which is of most importance has been missed. This is God’s Purpose for His Creation, which is seen in the way of His creation, His actions, and all He allowed to happen. God’s purpose and plan was not seen to begin with; consequently, a number of teachings resulted. These teachings have become tradition and are addressed herein by the following questions that reveal His purpose:\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e What did God mean when He called His creation good and very good?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDid God originally create Adam and Eve with immortal, physical bodies?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWere all animals and mankind originally created to be vegetarians?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWhy did God cast Satan and his angels onto the earth and not elsewhere?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDid eating of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil—which God called good—include both physical and spiritual death?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWhat was the Tree of Life all about? \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWas an animal killed when God made clothes out of skin for Adam and Eve, and if so, was it the first animal to die?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWhat all was cursed when Adam sinned?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWhat were the penalties because of Adam’s sin?\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eUnderstanding all of this sets the foundation for and enables us to see God’s purpose for his creation from the beginning in Genesis to the end in Revelation. This is God revealing the fullness of His nature and His loving mercy and grace, which was never before seen or experienced in His heavenly kingdom. This is specifically revealed through Jesus Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WestBow Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47143864271088,"sku":"9781512720600","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781512720600_p0.jpg?v=1763725840","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781512720600","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
