Disruption of the World (or Overthrow)

[ Editor: ]  “ The disruption of the world ” ( CV : Matthew 25:34; Luke 11:50; John 17:24; Ephesians 1:4; Hebrew 4:3; 9:26; I Peter 1:20; Revelation 13:8; 17:8), mistakenly referred to as “the foundation of the world,” was the catastrophic overthrow of God’s original creation. “ A whole eon (age) had gone by before humanity came into being, and all the events of that eon, whatever they were, had terminated in ‘ the disruption of the world ,’ that is, the disruption of the society as it existed at that time. That society was clearly a Celestial one, for it was in being before the Earth was even founded, as Job 38:4-7 makes plain.” – John Essex, “The Vessel of Humanity,” Unsearchable Riches, volume 73 (1982).
