What is the bondage of corruption that creation will be delivered from?
The bondage of corruption is the curse that fell upon creation, not willingly but by God's purpose, who subjected it in hope. Creation itself will be delivered from this curse into the glorious liberty of the children of God, when all creation comes under their rule and reign as joint heirs with Christ.
Les explains that creation was made subject to vanity, which is the curse, not willingly, but by reason of Him who subjected it in hope. The moment the curse fell, God promised a Redeemer, as Genesis 3:15 follows the curse. Les teaches that the creation itself shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption—the curse—into the glorious liberty of the children of God, meaning all creation will come under the rule and reign of the redeemed as joint heirs with Christ. He notes the whole creation groans and travails under the curse, and even believers who have the firstfruits of the Spirit groan within themselves, waiting for the adoption, the redemption of the body, which will complete it.
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
