THE KINGDOM HERALD

What we have been learning about the envisioned language nations of the Millennium and their territorial inheritance is one reason why the Anointed One’s coming to establish the promised kingdom is described as the coming of “the desire of all nations.” It answers the deepest aspiration of all ethnic groups of the earth: a land and nation of their own . “And I will shake all nations [the present ethnic conglomerations of nations are falling apart!] and the desire of all nations shall come : and I will fill this house [the millennial Temple in Jerusalem, the focus of the global kingdom] with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace , saith the LORD of hosts” (Haggai 2:7-9). That’s when the lofty aspirations of the proposed New World Order, as captured in the speech of former United States president

“But there are only about 200 nations in the world today,” you say, having read my previous article in which I envisioned 6,000 language nations for the promised kingdom of our Lord .

We’ve thrown and bundled the people together till the world has been afflicted with the killer disease of ethnic strife.

What small territories those would be.” Well, going by the total surface ar

Last week , I proposed a twofold significance of the twenty-four Elders of the heavenly pattern of the Armies of Heaven , comprising Christ and His redeemed saints, that will establish and rule over the promised kingdom . First was their representation of the twenty-four-man “Supreme Governing Council,” under Christ, of the entire kingdom. And second was their representation of the twenty-four-man “Provincial Governing Council” of each of the constituting provinces, or nations, of the global kingdom. This latter perspective of the Elders raised the question of the full number of those represented in them, and by implication the full number of the nations that will constitute the kingdom. This article will attempt to answer that question by tracing the promise of the kingdom back to the promise God made to “Father Abraham.” God said to Abraham, “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all familie
