Great SOAP! We should value people above projects, but how do you balance value and privilege? God valued man, but when he wasn't a good steward, he was kicked out of the garden. He loved man, but man was irresponsible. How do we balance that?
Value should never be a point in question. It remains no matter what. God value of man never changed. What changed was how he dealt with man. God wasn't punishing for wrongdoing, He was preventing man from ruining his future of the promise of redemption through the "seed of the woman." God's actions are motivated by our future good, not just our past misdeeds.
It's like discipling our children. We don't discipline out of displeasure, but we are training them for their future good.
