Thesis 89: Edenic Restoration

The Prophets foretold the future Edenification of the Earth by speaking of Eden, the Mountain of the Lord.[1] These prophecies are now coming to pass: We now have access to the Tree of Life[2] because Christ, in His death on the Tree,[3] removed the Curse brought about by the First Adam.[4] We have been re-admitted to the Holy Mountain (#11) and placed in the wide open spaces[5] of the Garden of the New Jerusalem;[6] our task is now to perfect it.[7]
