Jesus prayed--"your will be done on earth---
What is God's will for the earth? Is His purpose for it still the same as it was in the beginning?

To Adam and Eve, their Creator gave the command to use their reproductive organs and to produce children and fill the earth with them. But along with this filling of the earth with the human kind they must “subdue it.” All these perfect children were meant to live in an Edenic garden or Paradise. The original one in which Adam and Eve were settled would become too small after a great increase in their family, with children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and so on, with no one dying because of paying the penalty for sin. So it would become necessary for them all to subdue the earth outside the initial garden or Paradise of Eden by spreading out the garden’s boundaries, gradually cultivating the as yet uninhabited parts until the Paradise garden embraced the whole earth, from east to west and from the North Pole regions to the South Pole. This earth-girdling Paradise would require the constant attention and care of them all. Together with this garden care they were to have in subjection all the living creatures moving through earth’s waters and over its land or through its skies. Thus God’s will, which began to be done in the original Paradise of Eden, would finally be done everywhere on earth.
God's will for the earth has not changed. It will take place.

Is there any doubt that He still wants a love relationship with His children. He came and dies on the cross to pay our debts to the Law.. Since He see both the begining and the end in His present how would His plan or purpose ever changed... Jim

Our Father "desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth." (1 Tim 2:3-4)
He "is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish." (2 Pet 3:9; cf. Mt 18:14)
His commandment is "that you love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love one another." (Jn 13:34; cf. 1 Jn 3; 4; Lk 10:25-37)
This commandment summarizes all the others and expresses his entire will.
With love in Christ.

His purpose is still the same, as He never changes. The Bible tells His will.

Our Heavenly Father prepared this earth to help us develop a better understanding of the principles of happiness. His purpose hasn't changed. This is why there are competing voices of truth and why people are free to make both good and bad decisions.
To illustrate the importance of these conditions, consider that I teach my children not to lie and why this is important. Hopefully they'll understand and obey, but they will likely gain a greater appreciation for this principle of happiness as they experience what happens when a relationship is damaged because of dishonesty.
This isn't just speculation on my part. There are once again prophets of God on the earth that help us understand the Bible and other prophetic writings.

Why don't you pray about it and let God touch your heart to know the answer for yourself.
