Eschatology a Progressive Process: a Breakthrough in Eschatology Esther Katete Mutia Muiu

In order to understand eschatology in its fullest sense, let us look at the Biblical first eschatological statements, we will use just a few examples, because the Bible sets these eschatological statements before us page after page as we study the Holy Scriptures. In Genesis 1:26 to 28, we read:- Then God said, ?Let us make human being in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, and all the wild animals on the earth and the small animals that scurry along the ground?. So God created human beings in His own image. In the image of God He created them; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them and said, be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground." These words are eschatological; they are standards which show God?s purpose and goal for mankind, and also the end of disobedience.
