THE RESTITUTION (Acts 3:21).

—“It is the restitution of all things to their rightful owners; the kingdom shall be the Lord’s. The earth possessed by the Son of God and righteous men, will no more be cursed by the usurpation of Satan, or the reign of death and destruction. The heavens will shine with resplendent glory—no more obscured by the dark cloud of God’s anger. The thunders of God’s law on Sinai against sin will never reverberate through the wide expanse of the new heavens, and man will never more hide himself from the presence of his Maker, or tremble at the footsteps of the Almighty; for ‘love is the fulfilling of the law,’ and perfect love casts out all fear. Therefore we love his appearing, and look for his coming in like manner as the men of Galilee saw him go into heaven (Acts 1:11).”
