Eternity

[Bob Wille (Family)]

“In the last days the mountain of the LORD'S house will be established as the highest of the mountains
and raised above the hills. People will stream to it.”
Micah 4:1

Eternity looks grander and kinder
as time grows meaner and more hostile.
Thomas Carlyle

I have been collecting quotes for many years, then categorizing them by topic. This particular quote is under the category of "End Times - Eternity."

I don't want to be a party pooper, but Micah 4.1 sounds more like the Millennium Kingdom than eternity. It goes on to say...

Micah 4:2-3 Many nations will come and say, "Come and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD And to the house of the God of Jacob, That He may teach us about His ways And that we may walk in His paths." For from Zion will go forth the law, Even the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. And He will judge between many peoples And render decisions for mighty, distant nations. Then they will hammer their swords into plowshares And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation will not lift up sword against nation, And never again will they train for war.
