Until Every Enemy Is Put Down: The Coming Triumph of Redemption | Jonathan Edwards
Deep Dive into A History of the Work of Redemption by Jonathan Edwards - From Christ's Resurrection to the End of the World - The Success of Redemption from the Present Time to the Fall of Antichrist
Jonathan Edwards details the future success of Christ’s redemption, focusing on the destruction of Satan’s visible kingdom as foretold in scripture. As this period remains in the future, prophecy serves as the sole guide for understanding these events. Before this work begins, religion will enter a dark phase of widespread infidelity and scoffing. However, the subsequent revival will be wrought gradually but swiftly through the preaching of the gospel and the pouring out of the Holy Spirit rather than by the authority of princes or the wisdom of learned men.
This spiritual advancement will trigger a violent opposition from the kingdom of darkness. Satan’s forces, including those associated with the Antichrist and Mahomet, will unite for a final struggle that combines the spirits of popery and heathenism. This culminates in the battle of Armageddon and the pouring out of the seventh vial, which ensures Christ’s total victory and the shattering of Satan's kingdom.
The aftermath includes the abolition of heresies, the destruction of the Roman Antichrist, and the fall of the Mahometan empire. A key event is the national conversion of the Jews, who have remained a distinct people through a providential miracle. Furthermore, the gospel will spread to all heathen nations, including Africa, America, and the East Indies, bringing them out of centuries of darkness.
Ultimately, Christ’s kingdom will extend to all families of the earth, fulfilling ancient promises that in Abraham’s seed all nations shall be blessed. This revolution will end the church’s long history of suffering, ushering in a period of universal praise for the church on earth and in heaven. Edwards views this as the introduction of a new heaven and earth, resembling Christ’s final coming to judgment. This expansion is like a small stone cut from a mountain that grows until it fills the entire earth, replacing fractured human kingdoms with a unified divine reign.
