Homilist Psalm 86:9 All nations whom you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord; and shall glorify your name. When all the nations fall down in practical worship before the One all-holy, all-wise, and all-strong, then the golden age will have come, the millennium of the world. Three remarks about this event. I. To all HUMAN EXPERIENCE IT IS MOST UNLIKELY. See what the nations have been through all the ages that are past, and see what they are now. How far away from, and how hostile to, the great God. Judging from our own experience it seems an impossibility. II. To all TRUE REASON IT IS MOST PROPER. 1. Because all nations are His, and they are morally bound to serve Him. 2. Because all nations must worship Him if they would be virtuous and happy. III. To all SCRIPTURE IT IS MOST CERTAIN. 1. Scripture teems with Divine promises of such an event. 2. It is the nature of Divine promises that they must be fulfilled. (Homilist.)
