How does the end of the world relate to God's purpose?

In the sermon, it is emphasized that the end will come as part of God's sovereign design, aligning with His original purpose for creation. The phrase 'then the end will come' represents not merely a termination but the fulfillment of God's goal, which is ultimately that 'God may be all in all' (1 Corinthians 15:28). This goal indicates that throughout history, everything is orchestrated to reveal God's glory, culminating in a new heaven and earth where His sovereignty is recognized by all. Therefore, the conclusion of this age serves as a fulfillment of God's unchanging plan, showing that His sovereignty governs all events until the end.
