The
kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord
And
of his Christ,
And
he will reign for ever and ever. (Revelation 11:15)
It
is noteworthy that it says “the kingdom of the world,”
singular,
Because
in reality the whole world belongs to one kingdom,
The kingdom of
Satan.
This
is why in Satan's tempting of Jesus,
He
could offer Jesus the kingdoms of the world;
The
kingdoms of the world are all part of Satan's kingdom. (Matthew
4:8-9)
What
is the future of the nations; the kingdom of the world?
The
God of Creation has determined the future of the nations.
The
story is clearly told in His Word:
The
sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates,
And
its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the
East.
Then
I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs;
They
came out of the mouth of the Dragon, out of the mouth of the Beast
And
out of the mouth of the False Prophet.
They
are spirits of demons performing miraculous signs,
And
they go out to the kings of the whole world,
To
gather them for the battle on The Great Day of God Almighty.
'Behold,
I (Christ Jesus) come
like a thief !
Blessed
is he who stay awake and keeps his clothes with him,
So
that he may not go naked and be shamefully exposed.'
Then
they gathered the kings together
To
the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
The
seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air,
And
out of the temple came a loud voice from the throne, saying,
'It
is done!' (Revelation 16:12-17)
“It
is done!” The reign of Satan is over.
His
kingdom, the whole world, all the nations of the world;
That
is what is left of them,
Are
now the Kingdom of our Lord and His Christ, Jesus.
And
He will reign for ever and ever.
Christ
Jesus, at The Battle Of Armageddon,
Overthrows the Beast, the
Antichrist,
With
the breath of His mouth and the splendor of His appearing.
(2
Thessalonians 2:8)
All
the armies of the world are destroyed at The Battle Of Armageddon.
All
the nations of the world are destroyed, their cities turned to rubble
And
most of their people killed.
Such
is the ignoble end of the world we know.
In
fact Satan knows his future; all he can do at this point is play his
part
In
that which is foretold in the Word of God.
Nevertheless,
a Remnant of people; those who put their faith, hope and trust
In
the Christ of God are saved.
This
is The Bride of Christ, The New Jerusalem, Zion, The Israel of God.
The
Eternal City of God.
To
what kingdom do you belong?
