From the first moments of creation, when God looked upon all He had made and called it good, Scripture reveals that this goodness is more than just moral purity but means it is in a state of Shalom. Shalom as good means a deep, whole harmony of everything rightly ordered under God’s love and intended purpose. In Genesis, good is the world flourishing as God intended; in Romans, the same goodness is being restored as the Spirit intercedes for our brokenness and God works all things towards His redeeming purpose. What began as perfect in creation is now being remade through Christ into lasting shalom, as His goodness continues to heal, reconcile and bring life back into tune with the heart of the Creator.
