Romans 8
19 For all creation is waiting eagerly for that future day when God will reveal who his children really are.
20 Against its will, all creation was subjected to God’s curse. But with eager hope,
21 the creation looks forward to the day when it will join God’s children in glorious freedom from death and decay.
The created order of this earth was cursed at the fall
Genesis 3
17 And to the man he said,
“Since you listened to your wife and ate from the tree
Whose fruit I commanded you not to eat,
The ground is cursed because of you.
All your life you will struggle to scratch a living from it.
18 It will grow thorns and thistles for you,
Though you will eat of its grains.
19 By the sweat of your brow
Will you have food to eat
Until you return to the ground
From which you were made.
For you were made from dust,
And to dust you will return.”
And it shall be restored in the regeneration. When we receive freedom, the entire world will be changed
Isaiah 2
2 In the last days, the mountain of the Lord’s house
Will be the highest of all—
The most important place on earth.
It will be raised above the other hills,
And people from all over the world will stream there to worship.
3 People from many nations will come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of Jacob’s God.
There he will teach us his ways,
And we will walk in his paths.”
For the Lord’s teaching will go out from Zion;
His word will go out from Jerusalem.
4 The Lord will mediate between nations
And will settle international disputes.
They will hammer their swords into plowshares
And their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation will no longer fight against nation,
Nor train for war anymore.
Isaiah 11
6 In that day the wolf and the lamb will live together;
The leopard will lie down with the baby goat.
The calf and the yearling will be safe with the lion,
And a little child will lead them all.
7 The cow will graze near the bear.
The cub and the calf will lie down together.
The lion will eat hay like a cow.
8 The baby will play safely near the hole of a cobra.
Yes, a little child will put its hand in a nest of deadly snakes without harm.
9 Nothing will hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain,
For as the waters fill the sea,
So the earth will be filled with people who know the Lord.
The future rule is described in Edenic terms where there is no animosity among God’s creature . The knowledge of the lord will permate this world ushered in by the shoot of the stem of Jesse.
Revelation 21-22
