Episode Description:

Shawn McCraney explains the concept of the "Fulfilled Perspective," where God's plan of salvation, viewed through the Christian lens, emphasizes a completed narrative centered on God's creation of the universe and humanity. He underscores YAHAVAH as the ultimate creator and giver of choice, warning against the consequences of relying on one's own understanding rather than faith, as represented by the story of the Tree of Knowledge.

The knowledge from the forbidden tree is potent but never properly wielded by humans, as we lack the full capacity to use it justly, unlike God. Despite the broken covenant and the golden calf incident, God's promises included redemption for the faithful, outreach to the Gentiles, and through John the Baptist and Yeshua's ministry, the pathway for redemption was re-established, culminating in Yeshua's sacrifice and resurrection as fulfillment of prophetic promises.

The teaching highlights the return of Jesus Christ, depicted with clear signs prophesied to the Apostles and fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost, where the Holy Spirit empowered them to spread the Gospel, promising salvation to those who call on Jesus' name. It underscores the establishment of an unshakable, spiritual kingdom governed by the Spirit, unlike man-made empires, embodying the New Covenant where believers serve God with reverence, with the eternal Kingdom's fulfillment rooted in biblical prophecy, as shown in Revelation.

In Revelation, John envisions a future where afterlife is transformed, with heaven being a majestic place illuminated by God's glory and the Lamb, devoid of suffering and darkness, and open only to those written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. The concept of the Biblical Plan of Salvation is highlighted, where eternal salvation is available to those who choose faith, contrasting the outcomes for believers and non-believers.
