“The resurrection of the dead to the glory of the new Jerusalem and a renewed earth marks the end of the wilderness. Therefore, today, in the here and now, the call of God to His church is the call to go to Him into the wilderness and to dwell with Him there while we wait the completion of His redemptive work in the world, culminating in the new creation.” — D.J. Marotta
