Eden represents the perfect home God created for humanity, free from fear, shame, sickness, and death. Human sin led to the fall, resulting in a world filled with struggle and pain. However, through Jesus Christ, we see glimpses of our true home and the hope of restoration. The Holy Spirit empowers us to bring a piece of Eden into the present world, and all creation eagerly awaits its full restoration. Our calling as Christians is to be stewards of God's creation and work towards its renewal.
