Paradise restored to earth by means of God's Kingdom.
Daniel 2:44 In the days of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom, that will never be brought to ruin. And the kingdom itself will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to ALL these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite.
We have a choice, either God rule with Jesus as King, or man's rule under the influence of Satan. Luke 4:6, Matthew 28:18.
In this real life 'drama',...the good side wins. Rev.20:7-10
Those who go to heaven will rule with Jesus; Rev.20:6, Matthew 19:28, Rev.14:4b.
Because of Jesus, God's purpose for mankind and the earth will come true. Rev.21:1-5, Matthew 5:5.
Then God's will, will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

To me the Bible is a love letter...and reading it as a lover would read a love letter, yes, I understand it. I cannot explain it in short sentences to someone who is not in love with the Writer. It would be nonsense. But the Bible points to an awesome Being who is worthy of every effort you make to find Him. And, by the way, I'm referring to the Father that Jesus drew His Life from.

Bible = Basic Instructions Before Leaving the Earth.
Apart from the History of the Jews and the Life of Jesus,
the core spiritual teachings are very understandable (Proverbs, Letters of Paul, peter, john)

The bible is a teaching that was fabricated to keep spirits animating human bodies from finding out whom they really are. The bible perhaps has 20% truth in it, enough to keep most from questioning it's validity. But when one loses the fear of what the bible represents one can see it for what it truly is.

The bible is my guide for my life. Yes, I do understand most of God's Word. I am still learning.
John 3:16, sums up everything. (paraphrased) God loves everyone so much that He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus, to live here as a man. So that who ever believes in Him should have eternal life with God in heaven. God didn't send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save everyone who believes in Jesus, is sorry and turns away from their sins, and follows Him.

The Bible is my Sword for a spiritual battle. Without the Holy Spirit to reveal meanings of it, it's just words on a page. It's the law of life

The Bible is the revelation of God’s role in the creation of this universe and of mankind. In Genesis chapters one and two we read how God spoke and brought everything that exists into being. In Genesis chapter three we read of Satan’s role in the fall of mankind into sin and separation from God and of the curse this brought upon the earth. In the book of Revelation at the end of the Bible we see the future fullfillment of God’s plan. In chapter 20 of the book of Revelation (the third from the last), we read about the final defeat of Satan and God’s judgment on that portion of humanity that failed to avail themselves of His gracious gift of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. In chapters 21 and 22 we find the curse ended with God creating a new heaven and earth where there will be no more death, sorrow, crying or pain. In between these six chapters we find God’s unfolding plan of restoring His creation and mankind back to a state of perfection.

In short the bible is basically asking you to believe in God no matter what religion you are, and to ultimately be a good person on the earth.
