The Year of the Lord: The Ministry of Jesus Christ
In the beginning God created man for fellowship. God loved man and his sole purpose was to have man rule and reign on earth. Earth was a type and shadow of heaven and God wanted man to operate on earth just like he operated in heaven. God created Adam and Eve and he loved them.
