Revelation 11:15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying,
‘The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord
and of his Messiah,*
and he will reign for ever and ever.’
Do you remember yesterday I wrote about the scroll and eating it? There were a series of scrolls and a series of angels and a series of trumpets. Now this is the last. This is the culmination. This is God's promised culmination of all of human history:
‘The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord
and of his Messiah,*
and he will reign for ever and ever.’
All the authority that seems to be spread around the earth and seems to be vested in a variety of rulers, who do good things with that authority to varying degrees: all of that authority will finally rest wholly and completely with the Lord. And he will reign for ever and ever.
How long, O Lord, how long!?
In Christ,
Pastor Seth
