Earth's New Rulership

God's Word says of earth's new Ruler: "To him there were given rulership and dignity and kingdom, that the peoples, national groups and languages should all serve even him." (Daniel 7:14) Because Jesus will imitate God's love, great will be the peace and happiness under his rule. (Matthew 5:5; John 3:16; 1John 4:7-10) "Of the increase of his govenment and of peace there will be no end... to uphold it with justice and with righteousness." (Isaiah9:7 Revised Standard Version) What a blessing it will be to have a Ruler who rules with love, justice and righteousness! Thus, 2Peter 3:13 foretells: " There are new heavens [God's heavenly Kingdom] and a new earth [a new earth society] that we are awaiting according to his promise, and in these righteousness is to dwell."

Surely God's Kingdom is the very best news for all who love what is right. That is why, as part of the sign that we now live in "the last days" of this wicked system, Jesus foretold: " This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come." (2 Timothy 3:1-5; Matthew 24:14) That prophecy is being fulfilled now.
