Summary/Abstract: The promises of The Old and The New Covenants include physical blessing. Failure to understand this has caused The Church to distort the message of the gospel. Infected by Platonic ideas, The Church has often demeaned the value of the physical, and we are left with a negative view of creation, physical needs for enjoyment and sexual fulfillment, and other beautiful and good aspects of the created order. The physical was created by God and will be redeemed by God. We look not to the destruction of the heaven and earth, but to renovation – a new heaven and earth, where God’s creation will be redeemed, not obliterated.
