Theological Discourse on the Kingdom of God

Journey into the heart of Biblical promises, which find ultimate fulfilment in Jesus Christ. In this exploration of God's Kingdom, learn how every aspect of the Old Testament's revelation converges in the person of Jesus Christ, who embodies the Kingdom's objective reality. Contrary to popular belief, Jesus, the true embodiment of God's people, rejects status and national symbols. He embraces humility, spending time with society's marginalised and carrying a cross rather than a royal banner. The Kingdom of God, as revealed by Jesus, transcends race and nation, and is no longer limited to a particular people. Instead, it belongs to the "poor in spirit," who have been born again with righteousness in their hearts. Jesus' kingdom is distinct from the world order, as he declared to Pontius Pilate, "My kingdom is not of this world" (John 18:36). This divine order is inextricably linked to human affairs; it has a profound impact on all relationships with God and humans.

The established Kingdom, through Jesus, belongs to its heirs, known as "sons of the Kingdom" (Matthew 13:38). According to the book of Revelation, believers have been transformed into a kingdom rather than simply receiving one. In gratitude, believers recognise the unchanging nature of the kingdom received through Christ, echoing Hebrews 12:28. Celebrate the transformative truth that, through Jesus Christ, believers have been transformed into a kingdom, serving as God's priests. Join us in proclaiming eternal glory and dominion, acknowledging the profound reality of a Kingdom not of this world but intricately woven into the fabric of human existence.
