What does it mean that God makes all things new?

Answered in 1 source

God's promise to make all things new signifies the restoration and transformation through Christ.

When God states, 'Behold, I make all things new' (Revelation 21:5), it encapsulates the transformative work initiated through Jesus Christ. This promise signifies not just a future hope but also the current reality of spiritual renewal for believers. In Christ, we experience a new creation; old things have passed away (2 Corinthians 5:17). This work of making all things new is rooted in God's sovereign grace, wherein He is restoring what has been marred by sin, offering a vibrant life that is fundamentally different from the life of the flesh. It reassures the faithful that their current sufferings are not in vain as they live in anticipation of the complete renewal God guarantees.
