The End Is Coming: The Gospel of the Kingdom, the Prophecy of Isaiah, and the Coming Consummation of All Things

When Jesus stood upon the Mount of Olives and declared that the Gospel of the Kingdom would be preached in all the world, for a witness unto all nations, He was not offering an isolated prophecy — He was completing a promise first spoken through the prophet Isaiah some six centuries earlier. THE END IS COMING traces this single unbroken line of Scripture, from the Servant Songs of Isaiah 49 through the Olivet Discourse, the missionary journeys of the apostles, and onward to the vision given to John on Patmos. Drawing on the King James Version of 1611, this study asks what it truly means for the Gospel to reach the ends of the earth — and what that mission reveals about the certainty of God’s redemptive purpose in a world still waiting for His return. Written by theologian Orlando Rafael, this concise study is for readers who want to understand not only what Scripture foretells about the end of the age, but why the Church continues, generation after generation, to carry the same message outward — and on what foundation that confidence finally rests.
