What is the 'ALL THINGS' work together of our good in Rom.8:28?

Rom 8:28  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

This verse has been abused by prosperity teachers who pull this verse out of its true context and use it falsely and according to their own vain imaginations. There is so much more to this verse than putting people under the hope that the "all things" represents the tomorrow, when all things are supposed to suddenly work out better based on today's problems and challenges. This verse is not about tomorrow, or today, or even in our lifetime. This verse spans the ALL THINGS from when we were called in Christ before the world began, up until the hope of the measure of the glory of Christ we will have in the ages to come. God is working out all things, things in His intricate plan, across this great span of time, together for the good of the Body of Christ when it is in its glorified state in the coming age.

Let's take a closer look at what this verse truly means.

Before Genesis 1:1, there was a wisdom ordained by God unto our glory out in our future. God ordained wisdom before the world unto our glory. You know what that means? God has been working all things together for our good since before the world began.

Grace Gospel 101 (Part 1): Man’s Sin Condition

The Fall of Man

The first man ever to live was Adam and the first woman was Eve. They lived in the Garden in Eden. God had provided for all of the needs of Adam and Eve. They were given great freedom in the Garden. However, God put Adam to the test in one area: "And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" (Genesis 2:16-17). The only restriction placed upon Adam was that he must not eat of "the tree of the knowledge of good and evil."

God was testing Adam to see if he would obey. Adam failed the test: "And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat" (Genesis 3:6). Thus, Adam disobeyed God and ate of the forbidden fruit.
