113 - The Coming Kingdom
from Life Lessons with Dr. Steve Schell Hosted by Steve Schell
Over and over again the Bible presents us with snapshots of the world as it will look when the Messiah comes to establish the kingdom of God on earth. But until then, the world we live in is a badly damaged version of the one in which God intended us to live, but it has become so familiar to us that we forget it isn't normal. In fact, compared to what God originally designed, it's very subnormal. And we humans aren't functioning anywhere near the capacity God intended for us. Everything and everybody is broken and sin-filled, and the cause of all this breakdown is not a mystery. God gave us enough freedom to rebel against Him, and that rebellion affected everything. But, as we will soon see, God will not allow this broken situation to continue forever. He always brings things back to His original plan. At an appointed time that only He knows, He will send His Messiah to rule the earth.
