The kingdom of God is the key to life
Doing what we were born to do is the glory of life
Preaching what we were born to preach is the beauty of truth—
The Kingdom of God is Truth in our lives

A kingdom can be defined as the realm
Where the will of the king is done—
The coming of the kingdom was one of Jesus' primary concerns
Jesus was in this world, an invading GOVERNMENT from another place
Jesus brought the Kingdom from Heaven—
Jesus carried the Father’s WILL

All authority has been invested in Christ our king, and
All things are done under his authority and
According to the ABSOLUTE will of the Father

Jesus came during the time of the Roman Empire
So that we could understand His LANGUAGE
A lot of His TERMINOLOGY was similar to roman terminology—
Words like Lord and son of god was words that Caesar used etc.
Jesus did not come to crush the Roman Empire
He made use of their language—
It is therefore no surprise that at Pentecost
The first thing that the Holy Spirit affected was the disciples’ language
Because after His resurrection the Kingdom would have its own language

The kingdom of God is the key to life
Doing what we were born to do is the glory of life
Preaching what we were born to preach is the beauty of truth—
The Kingdom of God is Truth in our lives
