WOS-II-3 THE KINGDOM OF GOD IN PROSPECT
Introduction:
One of the greatest evidences of the inspiration of the Bible is prophecy; and
one of the most spectacular examples of this is in the prophecies concerning the
kingdom of God. The thread of the kingdom is found woven throughout the entire
Bible. Even in the Book of Esther in which there is not one mention of God, we
see the mighty providence of God preserving the Israelites from destruction so
the nation would survive and produce the Messiah despite Satan’s attempts to
thwart the purpose of God.
