One of the things that stood out to me is Psalm 37 absolutely applies to every era in world history. It was extraordinary to me that the Babylonian Empire lasted about 75 years. The Persians maybe 150 years, Alexander the Great's empire maybe 30 years and Adolf Hitler's Third Reich maybe 16 years. That's nothing. Nothing in comparison to the fruitfulness of the kingdom of Jesus Christ and the undying, growing impact of the Church of Jesus Christ all over the world to this day.
Napoleon in his dying words admitted that Jesus Christ was the greatest who had ever lived and that his kingdom of love had absolutely eclipsed anything that the kingdoms of men had ever produced. So, yeah, Psalm 37 absolutely applies to every era in world history. So this idea that the wicked will somehow continue to advance and succeed in the generations to come is absolutely false. Yeah, these kingdoms will come down. The vision for transgenderism and homosexuality and aborting half to two thirds of the world population, that's going to come to an end.
Within some number of years, they always come to an end. And so what we're to do is to plant the gardens in the ashes of what was left by those who have destroyed our civilizations and expect that the Kingdom of Jesus will be doing very well. Thank you very much. While the Kingdoms of Men come and go, the Kingdom of Jesus just continues to grow and to expand and to bless the nations of the world. So let's be encouraged.
We, I think, are looking at a huge opportunity to shine as lights in a very dark world, to show that the love of Christ and the gospel of Jesus Christ truly transforming lives within the church will be a night and day comparison to what the world has produced. You
