Do you ask that rhetorically or with the expectation of an answer? and yes, it matters

Actually, the question was mine, and yes I wrote that as an invitation to those who have "eyes" and "ears" to let me in on the secret. :)

Genesis says man was given a perfect start, God pronouncing all that He had made “very good”. (Gen. 1:31)

Mankind was given a mandate and the means of fulfilling it (Gen. 1:28) But Adam joined in rebellion against God and God issued a prophecy indicating how He would put down that rebellion and settle all issues raised by it. (Gen. 3:15)

It has taken these thousands of years but the development of the solution evidently has to take time.

How that prophecy in Gen. 3:15 would develop and take shape over time was only gradually revealed, even the angels desiring to see it’s outworking. (1 Peter 1:12)

Jesus called that solution “The Kingdom” and the news of it “Good News” because it would complete what was started there in Eden and end completely the rebellion. (Rev. 21:1-4)
