The author draws a fine line between that of procreation and reproduction. In his opinion, procreation refers to the biological method by which, individuals involve into reproducing the babies by the process which is designed for human bodies to give birth to babies. However, the distinction between that of procreation and reproduction is that, reproduction refers to the process of reproducing but not only at expense of sexual intercourse (McDonnell, 2006). It is a broad category which involves every process which can be used for reproduction of the babies, for example that of test tube babies. In the same way, the word begotten relates to that of beget which means that reproduction has taken place. However, it doesn’t specify as to which method has been used for reproduction. On contrary to it, being made refers to the process of procreation in which the humans involve sexually to reproduce babies and that only the biological method is being implied to achieve the purpose.

In my opinion, the distinction made by the author was necessary to be categorized. This is because most of the people regarded both reproduction and procreation to be the same thing which is not true (Nichols, 2004). Both the phenomena involve different process and often different complexities in their accomplishment and that different healthcare facilities and technologies are required to achieve the desired goals and objectives with respect to producing babies. This is the reason as to why, I completely agree to the definition that author has devised to both different phenomena so that they world can easily distinguish the process and somehow their end products too that who was reproduced, while who was procreated.

Creation: God is an intentional creator who only created good. He wanted to create an Earth where man could live without any difficulties. Therefore, God’s nature is love, caring, and peaceful.

Fall: When Adam and Eve rejected God they rejected creation, which was good, allowing bad to come into the world: death, disease, and suffering. Humanity caused its own spiritual and physical death.

Redemption: Even after Adam and Eve rejected God, God planned for humanity’s redemption. It is in God’s nature to be forgiving. Within the Christian biblical narrative it is “the atoning sacrificial death of Jesus Christ, by which God makes available forgiveness and salvation by grace alone, through faith alone” (GCU, 2018)

Restoration: Sickness and disease were man’s doing and something God never intended for us. God will eventually come again to purge evil and sin from this world, restoring humanity to its original healthy form. God does this for us because it is in His nature to be caring and forgiving. “The end goal is the restoration of all creation to a state of “Shalom” (GCU, 2018).

All four parts of the Christian Biblical Narrative bring comfort and hope in the light of illness. In creation God made us in His image, which gives purpose to our existence. Even through the fall of Adam and Eve, where illness was introduced to us, we still have hope because of redemption. “Sickness, suffering, and death are evils that plague human life, but they are not the greatest evil. That would be to lose God, to have reason to doubt His faithfulness to us” (Shelly, 2006). God promises a restoration for mankind. To come, heal and restore us from all diseases and illnesses.
