Christian Biblical Narrative The four parts of the Christian Biblical Narrative which depicts creation, fall, redemption, and restoration, details about the very nature of God. The creation is summed up as the peace which is bestowed on earthly beings based on the very intention of God. So, when it comes to sickness or that of the disease, then the narrative which can be visualized as the Fall, where the God’s ruleis ignored and the rebellious choice of ours depicts our physical or spiritual death. Sickness and disease do not kill a person instantly, but due to the rebellious choice we become the enemies of God, which destines our fall [ CITATION The12 \l 1033 ]The comfort and hope can be found in Redemption and also in Restoration. Redemption according to the narrative, is the forgiveness showered on us, by God, through turning evil and the sufferance in to something good and fruitful. On the other hand, Restoration, is the promise by the God, to a renewal of the glorious future, where the things will be restored, and it is when The Lord, Christ will appear to make a judgement of the sin and that of the evil, and in so doing the righteousness and the peace will be bestowed and thus the evil will be foregone once and for all [ CITATION Bru11 \l 1033 ]. So, as the four narrative suggests, Creation is in the making of us, where the peace gets bestowed on earthly beings based on the very intention of God, whereas the Fall within the narrative visualizes the death, both bodily and spiritually. Redemption as the name suggests, is the plan of God to relive this world from the evil and the sin, through which absolution can be achieved. Restoration, literally means to bring back something to its original position. So, according to the narrative, Restoration, is go back to that phase where the evil or the sin did not exist and no one was the enemy of God [ CITATION Cou11 \l 1033 ].
