KINGDOM SPLAT--Ridderbos II

Coming of the Kingdom
by Herman N. Ridderbos
(librarything entry; my scan results)

Proclaiming
the already-and-not-yet,
John speaks judgment,
demands conversion;
Jesus speaks salvation,
demands following.

In this Man,
this Messiah,
Kingdom is revealed
on earth, in time, to come.
