Every event in time relates to one of these two elements. There is nothing neutral. World history is the unfolding of God's sovereign purposes and plans in spite of the evil intentions of men and fallen angels. The World System is under the control of the evil one as allowed by the sovereignty of God. The kings and rulers take their stand against God and His annointed one.
Christians are to pray for and give honor to the kings and rulers.
Christians are to be subject to the magistrates without disobeying God. The World System is developing towards the global system of Anti- Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ will visibly return to the earth and establish His earthly Kingdom.
