What is the whole world moving toward?
The whole world is moving faster and faster toward the final moment when Christ will intervene once again in human history and set things straight. Believers look forward to His coming, while unbelievers shrink from it, but His return is certain.
Les explains that the whole world is moving faster and faster to that final moment when Christ is going to intervene once again in human history and set things straight. All creation groans and travails in pain, waiting for the curse to be lifted. Believers, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, are the only ones who can anxiously look forward to the Lord's coming. The unbeliever shrinks from it and is not ready, wanting to think it all away, but he will not succeed because Christ is coming.
