We now turn our attention to God's point of view in this multi part Bible Study on, sanctification and the plan of God, and we shall see how He has been in complete control of the process of Human History all along. We now shift our focus to a detailed chronological and strategic overview of God's plan for humanity as it moves resolutely and inexorably forward toward history's final conclusion, decisively pushing aside in the process all satanic resistance, defeating the devil at every turn until he and all the evil he represents are finally eradicated from the universe. As is the case with so many aspects of divine truth, the process of judgment, restoration and replacement, a threefold set of actions that can stand as short-hand for the plan of God overall, are themselves divisible into three distinct parts. In this respect, they parallel the believer's sanctification, the process whereby an unsaved human being is restored to complete and eternal fellowship with God better than what was lost at the fall.
