Are they waiting for God to come to them shadowed in clouds with the angels? The matter would then be finished! To God all matters will return.
Translation endnotes
[2:210] If God and controllers became visible, everyone would be forced to believe and the test designed by God would lose its meaning. God wanted to create creatures with free will, and He is testing this program on this planet. Those who make good decisions will join God in eternity and those who make bad decisions will join Perverse in hell and there they will vanish eternally.
