Heaven on Earth
From the beginning of time, man has searched for peace. He has joined peace movements, marched for peace, given prizes for peace, and even gone to war for peace.
When you hear of someone being arrested for "disturbing the peace," you have to wonder where he found any to disturb!
Some tell us to "visualize world peace" on bumper stickers, then cut us off on the freeways!
The United Nations has displayed the words of Isaiah 2:4 over its doors: "They shall beat their swords into plowshares and spears into pruning hooks." But neither the United Nations, nor politicians, nor people who "visualize it" will bring about the long-awaited peace on earth that mankind so desperately longs for.
It will come only when the Creator Himself returns and retakes what is rightfully His and hangs a sign over this war-weary planet that says "Under New Management"!
Yes, Jesus is coming back again.
And God is not late; we are just a bit early. As 2 Peter 3:9 tells us: "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."
When Jesus comes back to this earth to establish His kingdom, there will finally be world peace and much, much more. It's a picture of our future, and it may be coming sooner then we think.
