The kingdom of God

Here's my quote for the day:
There is a clear progression [in human history] toward a goal. The goal is
the consummation of the kingdom of God, in which human beings glorify God by
exercising rule over this planet in his name and by serving and enjoying him
forever. The glory of God is the highest of all ends and purposes (Larry R.
Helyer, Yesterday, Today, and Forever [Salem, WI: Sheffield, 1996],
255).
