An Optimistic Eschatology

"And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever." Isaiah 32:17

    This one hit me the other day, from Isaiah chapter 30, concerning Israel's going to Egypt for help (I think):

    This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says:
    "In repentance and rest is your salvation,
    in quietness and trust is your strength,
    but you would have none of it."

    [good pacifist verse :-]
