In the biblical context, "consummation" often refers to the fulfillment or completion of God's divine plan, particularly relating to the end times or eschatology. It signifies the culmination of history as ordained by God, where His purposes for creation, redemption, and judgment are fully realized. The term is closely associated with the return of Christ and the establishment of His kingdom. For instance, in Matthew 24:14, Jesus speaks of the gospel being preached to all nations before the end comes, indicating a preparatory phase leading to the consummation of history.Moreover, the book of Revelation extensively discusses themes of consummation. Revelation 21:1-4 describes a new heaven and a new earth, emphasizing the ultimate restoration and renewal of creation where God dwells with His people, wiping away every tear. This portrayal encapsulates the idea of consummation as the fulfillment of God's promises, where sin, suffering, and death are completely eradicated. Thus, the biblical notion of consummation is not only about the end of the current age but also about the beginning of a perfected existence in harmony with God.
