awaiting the regeneration
Cool verse in Matthew when Jesus is constantly answering questions about who will be greater in the kingdom and "look what we've done Jesus! We've given all we have, what do we get back?" from his disciples. In the NKJ version, Jesus speaks of when the "regeneration" happens. The time when the Son of Man is sitting on the throne and his disciples appartently will judge the 12 tribes of Israel. I love the idea of the regeneration. It speaks of something that is not right and will be made right again, namely, the earth.
The greater victory is not destroying the earth and making a new one, it is taking this broken world and restoring it and all that is in it to its former glory. The orginal intent that God had when He created it. ...Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
