There will be no sin in the eternal world of ABBA.

"For he that is dead is freed from sin." Rom. 6:7.

Sin is the work of the flesh, when the body dies, all sin must cease.

"I make all new." (the radical all of pas).

All the holy prophets have spoken of the restitution of all things.

"And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you, whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began." -Acts 3:20, 21.

"As the grace of the Gospel was intended to destroy the reign of sin, its energetic influence is represented as restoring all things, destroying the bad state and restoring the good; taking the kingdom out of the hands of sin and satan, and putting it into those of righteousness and truth. This is done in every believing soul: all things are restored to their primitive order, and the peace of God which passes all understanding, keeps the heart and mind in the knowledge and love of God. The man loves God with all his heart, soul, mind, and strength, and his neighbor as himself; and when such a work becomes universal, as the Scriptures  intimate will, then all things will be restored in the fullest sense of the term." Dr. Adam Clarke
Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?
