The purpose of this book is to explain the origin and destiny of mankind. God made man in his own image and likeness. Man was in a holy state as God, but he disobeyed God and fell into sin. Only God could deliver man out of his situation.
This book explains how God delivered man and what God expects of man while he is on this earth. Man has to go through three processes. He has to go through justification, sanctification, and glorification. We will explain each stage.
Justification deals with man's salvation, and sanctification deals with man everyday living. But glorification takes place at death. Man is glorified when he goes through the grave, is resurrected to a new life, and is carried to be with the Lord.
Before man is glorified, he has to go before the judgment seat of Christ and give an account of his stewardship. There are two judgments-one for the believer and one for nonbeliever.
The final question is, does the believer live under the law of Moses or under the grace of God? These are questions that we will be dealing with. My prayer is that you will be blessed as you study this book.
