Kingdom

The fifth kingdom: the millennium begins. It supersedes the four Gentile dominions. It is the kingdom age, when righteousness reigns. "Thy people also shall be all righteous." Isa. 60:21. Undoubtedly the nucleus with which this period begins, by reason of the outpoured Spirit, will be characterized by genuine conversion (see Isa. 4:3; Ezek. 36:24-27). The long-looked-for age in which the "God of heaven" sets up a kingdom, at last arrives.
