What Is God Waiting For?

Dear Brother Ron

What is god waiting for? What does he have to prove by letting this world go 2000 years after his only Son said the Kingdom Of God is near?

Dear Tory

The Kingdom of God is nearer than you think.

Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

The only thing God is waiting for is for us to discover the real nature and location of His kingdom. We have within us the power and beauty of the Lord and Creator of the universe. All it would take would be for us to discover how to use that power to create the kind of world our Father wants us to live in.

We keep waiting for some external power to come and save us from ourselves. That's not the way it works. No heavenly power will transform us into a better world. We have to learn how to use the power of God within us to transform ourselves. Maybe some day, we will stop killing each other over who has the right philosophy long enough to do this.

Best always
Brother Ron
