Annotation | Eutopia and dystopia contrasting the millennial reign of Christ with the “World of Imprisoned Souls” with Biblical references (259-63). Three people from the past are transported to the millennial kingdom, which is nearing the end of the thousand years and approaching Armageddon. Not belonging there, they become a focus for competition between the two realms. Earth, which is composed of 144 kingdoms, each led by a governor appointed by God, has been renovated by God so as to be Eden-like, albeit with cities. Strict deference to authority. All minds open to everyone, but, of course, all thoughts are virtuous. Each person has a “perfect body” (70). Animals, such as tigers, are vegetarians. |
