Why hasn't God judged the world? In an age marked by defiance, violence, and spiritual rebellion, the continued order and beauty of the cosmos seem almost inexplicable-unless one understands the cross. In this provocative and biblically grounded work, David M. Turner explores how the death of Christ not only satisfied divine wrath but postponed its full outpouring upon the world. The Cosmic Pause presents a compelling theological and exegetical case that the propitiation achieved at Calvary introduced a divine delay-a cosmic stay of execution. Rather than eliminate wrath, the cross restrained it, giving way to a Church Age marked by mission, mercy, and mounting urgency. Blending insights from dispensational theology, biblical exegesis, and eschatological hope, this book reconsiders New Testament "universal" language in light of God's forbearance. The result is a rich and sobering vision: we are not living in a world forgotten by God, but in a world preserved-for now.
