Why is Elohim “mindful” of humanity? Psalm 8:4-8
Earth, the Universe, mankind, were created in response to a Heavenly rebellion that manifest in the Kingdom of God and initiated the creation narrative as a temporary repository for this destructive coup d’état.
Man was created as a vessel through which Elohim would maintain volitional love with His faithful angelic creation while simultaneously destroying the works of the devil via selfless love via the Gospel via the Messiah (1 John 3:8b; Genesis 3:21).
Humanity that allies with Elohim in this Great Spiritual War via faith in Jesus as Lord via the Gospel, a Spiritual War initiated before Time began, will be rewarded for their faithfulness with eternal life and glory with the Son in the New Jerusalem (John 3; Romans 2:7; Revelation 21-22). Those who have allied with Elohim’s nemesis, Satan, will suffer a fate similar to Satan in Hell (Revelation 20:10-15).
The totality of Scripture is focused upon this one central theme…the consequences of sin and the eternal victory of obedience to good through faithful love for Elohim modeled as a bulwark against future rebellion in the Kingdom.
It is written,
“6 He will render to each one according to his works: 7 to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; 8 but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury. 9 There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, 10 but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. 11 For God shows no partiality.” Romans 2 (ESV)
