The time shall come when those nations that are most alienated from the profession of truth, shall come under her wing, and pay allegiance to her empire; Strangers shall be brought into her bosom, not only Philistia and Tyre, nations upon her confines, but Egypt and Ethiopia, nations more remote, nations born and bred at a distance shall be registered as born from her womb, and nursed in her lap; distance of place shall not hinder the relation of her children. And when God shall count the people of foreign nations, he shall set a mark upon every true believer, and reckon him as one born in Zion, a Denizen of Jerusalem, though not a Jew in the flesh.
