Few are crying out for more preaching
People do not want more preaching—
They want Kingdom Reality
There is a great hunger for the demonstration [manifestation] of the glory of God
Many are crying out for it—The anxious longing of creation cries
out for the manifestation of the sons of God (Romans 8:19)

Often there is too much preaching and
Too little practical demonstration of the Gospel of the KINGDOM
There is much teaching, little training, and
Practically no equipping going on in today’s church—
Therefore, the masses have little capacity for things pertaining to the kingdom—
The Kingdom is a practical experience and some fear it because
The Gospel of the KINGDOM will ask a lot of an individual

Jesus spoke about the Kingdom of God after his resurrection
This message was important because there were many things that
He had to share with them pertaining to the Kingdom—
We have a glimpse of what He said when we study Paul’s letters

Jesus preached the Kingdom of God for three years
Before He spoke the words concerning His Church in Matthew 16:18
John the Baptist also preached the Kingdom of God before Jesus’ statement

The Church’s ministry is related to the Kingdom
The Church promotes and helps God fulfil His Kingdom Plans
When we are born again we are transferred into His Kingdom (Colossians 1:13)
The Holy Spirit is our helper with the plans of God and
In this world we extend His Kingdom here on earth

The Kingdom starts in the heart and is released practically
Paul summarized his ministry to the Ephesians (Acts 20:25; 8:12; 19:8; 28:23, 31)
Paul preached the Saviour—the King—the Kingdom

The Church (ecclesia) promotes and helps God fulfil His Kingdom Plans
The kingdom of God is alive and well on planet earth
It is advancing and people are coming into His kingdom
There is darkness but this darkness cannot destroy the kingdom of God
Our joy lies in Jesus; our purpose lies in the kingdom
Let’s be the Church that we were born to be—
Often there is too much preaching and
Too little practical demonstration of the Gospel of the KINGDOM
There is much teaching, little training, and
Practically no equipping going on in today’s church—
Therefore, the masses have little capacity for things pertaining to the kingdom—
The Kingdom is a practical experience and some fear it because
The Gospel of the KINGDOM will ask a lot of an individual
