Old Creation vs New Creation – The End is the Beginning
Old Creation vs New Creation Contrast: In old creation Adam and Eve were given authority over heaven (sky) and earth. They were to rule and subdue; in other words to bring the earth and its inhabitants into bondage – the meaning of kabash/subdue (Genesis 1:28). In new creation the last Adam, Jesus, is given all authority in heaven (including God’s domain) and earth (Matthew 28:18). His responsibility is not like Adam’s, to put earth’s inhabitants into bondage, but to free mankind from sin. Jesus’s life on earth ends the opposite of how life on earth begins. Fitting and complete.
