Answer for the human race

 

1st Peter 3:21

 

“there is also an anti-type, which now serves us, Baptism

(not the removal of filth in the flesh, but the answer of a

good conscience towards God) through the resurrection of Jesus Christ”.

 

A good conscience towards God through Jesus’ resurrection

To be alive in Him … is the answer for the human race.

Outside of that is only emptiness as formerly was stated.

“All things were without form and void”, and had darkness on its face.

 

But then you say, “When it all began”, there was no resurrection.

Just remember here … that time had no limit.

An introduction to temporal, where nothing was alive,

only time and space made into one, material, and spirit.

 

A spirit placed in the flesh … is that where it all started?

Pure and clean the flesh was then to contain the walk with God.

No death and sin was ruling then, just life itself was springing

forth out of the Glory of God, Himself, that somewhere time forgot.

 

Then came the fall and man’s spirit died and the flesh was soon to follow.

Things were getting worse right then … until all corruption died,

as through the flood judgment came after Divine long suffering

as Noah preached, none were saved, as the temporal there was tried.

 

Eight souls were saved from water. They were baptized, you may say.

Cleansed and kept from judgment … Grace in Christ at work.

Now it is basically the same … as judgment passes daily

on the resurrected in Christ Himself … for everlasting worth.
