God's Timeless Plan

A misconception in mainstream Christianity posits Jesus' sacrifice as the latest effort in an ongoing battle between good and evil. This view implies previous failures, contrary to Ephesians 1:4, stating God's pre-existing plan for salvation 'before the foundation of the world.' Viewing human history as a permitted time for self-rule, not a manifestation of a spiritual battle, suggests God's law comprises timeless principles reflecting His mind, relevant for all mankind since the Garden of Eden.
