Maranatha and a question

Perhaps most of my posts tagged "truth" should've been renamed Marantha.  (EDIT:  Actually, not that many.  I've already added that category.)
  Maranatha - come quickly.  Most often used in reference to the Second Coming of Christ.
  Although I doubt the modern prophets and their interpretations of current events...I find great hope in our blessed hope.  The hope of the resurrection of the dead.  The hope of the return of Christ.  The hope of the Creator restoring all things.  The hope God has given to us about a future with Him.
  As I read my Bible, my blessed hope isn't exactly "go to heaven when we die."  It's better.

  How do you reconcile 2 Peter 3:10  Revelation 21 with the parable of the vineyard?  And is the moaning creation of Romans 8 - is it a wounded creature waiting for a merciful killshot, or waiting for God's hand to restore, to hear God say "it is good"?

Even So Come

All of creation
All of the earth
Make straight a highway
A path for the Lord
Jesus is coming soon

Call back the sinner
Wake up the saint
Let every nation shout of your fame
Jesus is coming soon

Chorus: Like a bride waiting for her groom
We'll be a Church ready for you
Every heart longing for our King
We sing

Even so come
Lord Jesus, come

Even so come
Lord Jesus, come

There will be justice
All will be new
Your name forever
Faithful and true
Jesus is coming soon

Repeat Chorus

So we wait
We wait for You
God we wait
You're coming soon

So we wait
We wait for You
God we wait
You're coming soon

Repeat Chorus 2x

Even so come
Lord Jesus, come

(Repeat 4x)
