Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even [to] the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
i corinthians 15:24After the plight comes to a head, the kernel of the Holy Spirit will turn into a stem and the word of the Master into a deed. The age will then appear in all its glory and life will be One again and the lost peace will be here once more. It is not our purpose to follow the ages in detail, but we have to provide a general overview of them, so that the picture of the holy history will not be mutilated but appears as a whole, albeit only as a mere sketch. But how can we dare to describe our future without being filled with divine passion? Let therefore nobody consider the following as a mere figment of our fantasy. It is like all that preceded it the fruit of mature reflection, and if it appears in the garment of poetry, so this is so because in the period ahead of us ideal and actuality [Wirklichkeit] are one; actuality becomes ideal, because the ideal is being actualized.
In the holy kingdom politics will be founded on holy, eternal principles, cared for by the pious and the loyal.
