kingdom come

Eternal afterlife destination

Kingdom come refers to the afterlife, heaven, or the end of time—drawn from the Lord's Prayer phrase "thy kingdom come." It appears most often in the expression blow someone to kingdom come, meaning to destroy utterly, especially by explosion.

The phrase can also describe an indefinitely long wait: We'll be here until kingdom come if you don't hurry up.
