THE KINGDOM OF GOD!!! The dominant theme of Jesus’ ministry

THE KINGDOM OF GOD…in Jesus’ ministry It is presently arriving “…Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is arriving…” (Mark 1:14-15)

THE KINGDOM OF GOD…in Jesus’ ministry The expected battle with evil is being fought NOT in the distant future but in Jesus’ ministry “If it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come to you” (Matthew 12:28)

THE KINGDOM OF GOD…in Jesus’ ministry It is “among” or “in” you “Once when Jesus was asked when the kingdom of God was coming, he answered, ‘The kingdom of God is not coming with things that can be observed; nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There it is!’ For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you’” (Luke 17:20-21)

THE KINGDOM OF GOD…in Jesus’ ministry It is “the will of God being done on earth as it is in heaven”

THE KINGDOM OF GOD…in Jesus’ ministry It is all expectations turned “upside down” Jesus’ use of parables: upset normal conventions and understandings Weakness=Strength Last=First Death=Life

THE KINGDOM OF GOD…in Jesus’ ministry It is comprised of “outsiders” rather than “insiders” Sinners, lepers, tax collectors, women, Samaritans Matthew 21:31

THE KINGDOM OF GOD…in Jesus’ ministry It is presently arriving in Jesus’ ministry! The expected battle is being fought in Jesus’ ministry! It is among you now! It is God’s will on earth as in heaven! It is all expectations turned upside down! It is made up of “outsiders”!
