"Perhaps it was David, the sweet singer of Israel, who intoned these words of hope in the spirit of prophecy: “God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause His face to shine upon us; that Thy way may be known upon the earth, Thy saving health among all nations. Let the people praise Thee, O God; let all the people praise Thee! O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for Thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth…yea, all kings shall fall down before Him: all nations shall serve Him” (Ps. 67:1-4; 72:11). It is obvious that all nations do not today serve the Lord, neither do all kings (rulers) fall down before Him. China does not serve the Lord. Japan does not serve the Lord. The various nations that contain one billion Moslems do not serve the Lord. The Buddhist nations do not serve the Lord. Great numbers of nations do not today serve the Lord, and few of their rulers fall down before HIM. But the day is surely coming when all nations shall be joined to the Lord and shall fulfill their obligations to Him as their Maker and Saviour. If that day never comes, then the Bible will have to be relegated to the scrapheap of ancestral errors. But the promise is sure: “Arise, O God, judge the earth: for Thou shalt INHERIT ALL NATIONS. A-L-L N-A-T-I-O-N-S whom Thou hast made shall come and worship before Thee, O Lord; and shall glorify Thy name. For Thou art great, and doest wondrous things” (Ps. 82:8; 86:9-10). And my spirit shouts a thousand Amens!"
