How interesting, theref are other worlds, where beings never sin like us on earth sinners. Paul says of Jesus: "He is the image of the invisible God. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things and in Him all things hold together." Colossians 1:15 - 17. Jesus -- "All things were created by Him and for Him." Colossians 1:16 God the Son created world after world. He filled those worlds with intelligent beings such as you and me. There is one big difference between us and all other created beings, however. We are sinners and they are not. They never age, never get sick, and never die. They have never experienced pain, sickness or death. The Son of God referred to these sinless worlds and to Planet Earth in the story He told of the man who owned a hundred sheep, one of which got lost. "Does he not leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep." Luke 15:3-7. Jesus was here referring, primarily, to the one lost person, but secondarily to Earth--the one lost planet. Planet Earth is the only world--of the vast number God has created--that has a sin problem, an aging problem, or a death problem. This is the planet where the Son of God, the good Shepherd, came.
