A Hope You Can Trust - Continue

 1. The victorious Kingdom, represented by a large stone, is "set up" by God himself, not by human "hands." Hence, it rightly called God's Kingdom. 

2. God's Kingdom "will crush" all human rulerships, including the seventh world power. Why? All these will refuse to relinquish power and will face off against God in a final great war at a figurative place called Har-Magedon, or Armageddon.  The Bible makes clear that this war involves "the kings of the entire inhabited earth." - REVELATION 16:13, 14, 16. 

3. Unlike transitory human governments, including the seven world powers, God's Kingdom "will never be brought to ruin." Also, it will rule over the entire earth. - DANIEL 2:35, 44.
