God in his appointed time will bring forth the kingdom of the Lord Christ unto more glory and power than in former days, I presume you are persuaded. Whatever will be more, these six things are clearly promised: fullness of peace unto the gospel and the professors thereof; purity and beauty of ordinances and gospel worship; multitudes of converts, many persons, yea, nations; the full casting out and rejecting of all will-worship, and their attendant abominations; professed subjection of the nations throughout the whole world unto the Lord Christ — the kingdoms become the kingdoms of our Lord and his Christ; and a most glorious and dreadful breaking of all that rise in opposition unto him.
John Owen — The Advantage of the Kingdom of Christ in the Shaking of the Kingdoms of the World (Sermon on Ezek. 17:24)
