Even after finding salvation and becoming part of God’s family, we continue to live in the midst of an ocean of sorrows and various trials. But believers—those saved by Christ—have a tremendous advantage. Jesus Christ has given them a firm foundation and an unshakable hope. The guarantee of this hope is God’s covenant, established by the Son on the cross at Calvary.

God has been working on its creation for several thousand years. To accomplish this, He had to create the universe as we know it. He had to create humankind within it. He had to prepare and carry out a grand plan of redemption, which included the long history of Israel and the coming of the Messiah through it.

It is precisely this that made possible the continued work of the Holy Spirit, who saves souls and, one by one, incorporates them into a single organism, the Body of Jesus Christ.</p><p>By design, the Church is a most marvelous creation. It unites millions—perhaps even billions—of people who have lived in different periods of history, in completely different cultures, and in different parts of the world. Each of these people is unique. Each one is needed in the Body of Christ. And each one—absolutely every single one—brings something special to it, something specifically created by God for the greatness and beauty of the Body of Christ.</p> <p>The Church is God’s most complex creation.

Third, God used Babylon as an instrument of punishment for His people, Israel, allowing them to be taken captive for their long apostasy. That is why the Bible speaks so often about this kingdom.

Understanding the nature of the gospel is the foundation of the new, supernatural life of Christ's saved people.  </p> The apostle Paul devotes quite a large portion of his letter to describing the gospel. While a brief version of the gospel can be contained in a few sentences, its depth cannot be exhausted in all eternity. Paul touches on a few of the most significant elements of the gospel to help us see its nature and operation. Understanding the nature of the gospel is the foundation of the new, supernatural life of Christ's saved people.
