Well, the November US Presidential election is right around the corner. And while this event can take on enormous significance and the power to shape aspects of our lives here in America, and have consequences for humans and the earth, we might be right to zoom back from this moment to remember what our future holds in Christ.
The Scripture from Revelation paints a picture of a multitude from every tongue, nation, and tribe, larger than anyone can count who are worshipping around the throne of God. This vision of the kingdom finally fully transcends that which has the power to divide in our world. Empires will rise and fall, kingdoms will come and go, but the risen Lord will reign forever and ever and ever.
