Here, we make a rather gradual and possibility inflammatory statement: the Kingdom of God was not brought forth from the heart of God for the purpose of teaching man how to worship. Though this is a rather gradual and possibility inflammatory statement, it is also a somewhat obvious statement; for, the Kingdom of God preceded man, and can, therefore, not be anchored on the human condition. Yes, it would be nice to think that God, in His foreknowledge, prepared for an event that had not happened yet, in a time-based way of thinking. Indeed, Scripture support this Capability of the LORD God.
Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness: I bring near my righteousness: it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
(Isaiah 46:9-13) However, even though Scripture supports the fact the God’s Foreknowledge allows Him to
Plan ahead; it does not center this on to the community of man. For instance, the LORD included aspects of His Kingdom that are for the benefit of other portions of Creation. To illustrate this, let us begin with an interaction of God with another portion of Creation, in an action that was for the benefit of man:
cursed is the ground for thy sake.
