“This Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world
as a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.”
MATTHEW 24:14
Why
does the Lord delay His return? Not for any lack of desire on His part
to
consummate His Kingdom, but because of His great love, and His
compassion for all. Peter says He is not willing that any should perish,
but that all should come to repentance. We have noted how the Gospel of
the Kingdom is rarely preached today. Perhaps God is revealing this to
His people yet again, re-emphasizing it to the Ekklesia so it can be
proclaimed to all nations as His last invitation before the end of this
age.
The fact
that we do
not know when He will return, the fact that we are to be ready at all
times, means there is nothing to prevent Him from coming today. The next
great event in the recovery of the Heavenly Order is the return of the
King.
