Meantime, I believe that Christians are to live to God’s glory in this world here and now. To me, this means that Christians must be “triunely” involved in three united and related activities all their time.
First, they must subdue the Earth and all its fullness to the glory of God the Father — precisely through serving the Lord in the ordinary practice of their professional careers (Gen. 9:1-6 & I Cor. 10:31). Second, they must evangelize the Earth and christianize all its nations as commanded by God the Son — and get them to obey all things whatsoever He has commanded, even from Genesis through Revelation (Matt. 28:19 & Mark 16:15). And third, they must promote the coming of the Kingdom in all its many facets — with all their might, through the power of God the Spirit, as all history further unfolds toward its divinely-predestinated consummation. Luke 11:2 & Rev. 14:13.
