Theology Fascinates Me From Time to Time

Sorry about not posting last week, but I honestly had nothing to talk about. 

After listening to lectures in Intro to Theology all semester I think I've discovered its major message. I really hope that my ephiphany isnt wrong because that would feel horrible, but I will explain my theory anyway. I have been used to today's Christian message that God accepts every one no matter who they are are where they come from. Ive never really thought much about a time when that wan't necessarily the case. In the beginning God was the creator of all, Adam, Eve, and every other living thing in the world was under his care.  After  the first man and woman ate the forbidden fruit, it was just a  downward spiral until Noah and his family were actually the last humans who didn't tear themselves away from God. Some time after the flood - God created the Abrahamic Covenant with Abraham and his descendants who would later be known as the nation Israel. When Israel was delivered from Egypt, God created the Sinai Covenant to give them laws. It all started to get worse again as the people kept breaking the laws adn distancing themselves from God - especially when they asked for a king. King David and his son Solomon marked Israel and its peak and last days of glory. However, their actions led to Israel becoming almost beyond repair. It probably seemed to the world that the people who "claimed" to have a special relationship with the one true God was false. Until they recieved prophecies of what later they would come to think of as prophecies of the coming of the "Suffering Servant" or "Messiah" who would restore Israel to its rightful place. Which Christians believe was fufilled by Jesus - his birth, life, death, and resurrection.  I think the message is that the history of humanity has been to right the wrong of Adam and Eve. Israel was an example to humanity of the right and wrong ways you could act on earth.  Later the disciples and especially Paul the Apostole spread the news of the special relationship becoming universal but also including individual relationships. It has lead to the common messeage today - it doesnt matter who you are are where you come from; your entitled to a special relationship with God, but its up to you to accept it.
