Unlikely as it may seem in view of today’s world being troubled by so many tensions and conflicts, the world is destined for a time of peace on an unprecedented scale. How will this be achieved? So many well-meaning human efforts have been made to accomplish this and yet have failed. Today, highly dangerous situations continue to be prominent in the Middle East, in the Korean peninsular, and in European nations bordering Russia. Peaceful coexistence between the major powers is under threat. Furthermore, extremist Islamic terrorism can strike anywhere – even in Australia, as already experienced in an increasing number of nations. Apart from the foregoing “headline” tensions there are many more areas of conflict in the world today.

There can be no solution to these growing threats to world peace without the supremacy and intervention of Almighty God and His righteousness. God’s inspired word, the Bible, predicts that the world will emerge from insoluble crisis to become a glorified and peaceful place. The Bible tells us repeatedly that Christ the Son of God will return to earth at a time of unprecedented crisis to establish God’s Kingdom. He will reign over the entire world, vanquish evil and achieve peace on earth. God’s word summarises beautifully the outcome of His intervention in world affairs:

“The work of righteousness will be peace, and the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.” (Isaiah 32:17)

The big question is what are you doing, and what should you be doing, to prepare yourself for this momentous divine intervention? Unprecedented blessings will be conferred on those who have prepared for it and long for it to happen.

We warmly invite you to a free Bible presentation enlarging on this crucial subject and making clear what this preparation requires for such a blessed outcome. It’s titled Peace is coming – be prepared. This will be on Sunday evening the 26^th of August at 7.00pm. The venue is the Christadelphian Hall, 489 Mt Gravatt-Capalaba Road, corner of Boyanda Street, opposite Ham Road, Wishart. That date and time again: Sunday evening the 26^th of August at 7 o’clock.
