"The church has expereinced the victory of the Kingdom of God; and yet the church is, like other men, at the mercy of the powers of this world.... This very situation creates a severe tension-indeed, acute conflict; for the church i the focal point of the conflict between good and evil, God and Satan, until the end of the age. The church can never be at rest or take her ease but must always be the church in struggle and conflict, often persecuted, but sure of the ultimate victory."
George Ladd (quoted by Anthony A. Hoekema), The Bible And The Future, Pg. 52
