A POWERFUL ENEMY OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD

Religion is man’s efforts to reach God.

Matthew 5:20 “For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law,

you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.”

Romans 14:17 “For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking,

but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,”

Christianity is a relationship.

ARE YOU HIDING FROM GOD IN HIS CHURCH?

Righteousness is a right standing with God that comes by our personal faith in Jesus to save us.

Peace is an inner transformation that brings about a peace WITH God

and also provides God’s peace IN you!

The more we cooperate with Him the more we begin to love Him and that brings us great, bubbling joy.

Philippians 4:4 “Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say, rejoice.”

Nehemiah 8:10 The joy of the Lord is our strength.

This joy comes because the KOG is all about experiencing the presence of the King in your life!
