Jesus of Nazareth is the dominant figure.

Jesus of Nazareth is the dominant figure in the history of western culture for almost twenty centuries. It is from His birth that most of the human race dates its calendars. It is by His name that millions curse, and in His name that millions pray."The world cannot forget Jesus because He is the Lord of this world. He is crowned with glory and honor and will come again.

What this world needs more than anything else, is someone who will rule with a rod of iron, someone who will mean what he says. What a tremendous joy to know there is coming One who will do what he says. You can count on it. Oh, the Joy that is to come when the Mighty One will set everything and everyone into THE GLORIFIED STATE. For He means what He says and backs up His words with deeds!

What a treat it will be to have Gods Son coming who will rule the earth in righteousness and faithfulness."The rod of His mouth" is the Word of God, specifically the word of the cross, the cross of Jesus that puts to death the old self in you.

If the world would love their enemies, as He Jesus said to do, it’s the end of the arms race, destroy the instruments of death and fulfill all the dreams of peace. There is something in all that becomes angry when your attacked, that makes you want to strike back and get even. It is what produces the horrible cycles of murder, war, and pillage that are repeated from century to century in the history of man. The Lord puts that to death by the Cross. He is coming the One who will deal earnestly, honestly, and thoroughly with all evil.

The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the calf, lion and the child. The cow and the bear shall feed; their young shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. None shall hurt or destroy for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord. (Isaiah 11:6-9)

What a beautiful picture!  There is a deep hunger in mankind for this kind of a world, although none know how to achieve it. But He is coming the One who does know how. This is what the Lord has power to do in your heart today. He can heal all controversy and bring peace in you.
