This expression occurs in
Acts 3:21
21
Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. (Acts 3:21)
, (also the thought in
Matt. 17:11
11
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. (Matthew 17:11)
,) and refers to the restoration of divine rule over the earth, when Christ reigns in the millennium, and to the re-establishment of all things in all their former beauty. This expression can in no way bear the meaning attempted to be put on it by some, who refer it to the imaginary bringing back of all (including the lost) to God.
