19 Are humans the only object of God s redemptive plan or is all creation part of the great story? Colossians 1: [Christ] is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.
20 Biblical visions of shalom Isaiah 11: 6-9 The wolf shall lie with the lamb, the leopard with the kid, the calf and the lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them They will not hurt or destroy on all my holy mountain; for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord as waters cover the sea.
