The Kingdom of God Focal point of prophecy John the Baptist Matthew 3:1,2 Jesus Christ Matthew 4:17 “the kingdom of God is at hand!” Matthew 16:28 Mark 9:1

Not Far From The Kingdom Mark 12:28-34

The Nature of the Kingdom  When Scripture speaks of the kingdom of God, it describes a monarchial form of spiritual government (Luke 1:31-33; Colossians 3:17; Ephesians 2:19,20).  Furthermore, “the kingdom of God” and “the church of Christ” refer to the same spiritual realm (Matthew 16:16-19; Colossians 1:13-14, 18; Hebrews 12:22-24, 28-29; Revelation 1:4, 6, 9).

The Dividing Line  In the New Testament the kingdom of God is represented as both a rule unto which man must submit (Luke 17:20,21; Romans 14:16-17) and a realm into which man must enter (Luke 16:16; Matthew 4:23- 25).  In either case, we may be near unto or far from God’s kingdom, depending upon our attitude and disposition.  God’s purpose in establishing the kingdom was to bring men & women into full submission unto Christ (Colossians 1:13,14; Matthew 7:21-23)  Lord adds people to His church as they are saved (Acts 2:46,47)

The Qualities Of Nearness  Many are far from the kingdom of God (Romans 3:10-18).  Others, like this scribe, have progressed spiritually to the point that they are near to the kingdom of God. (Mark 12:34)  “Wisely/ intelligently” – “sensibly, discreetly” is descriptive of action that is “wisely, thoughtfully” pursued.

The Qualities Of Nearness  Scribe was Knowledgeable (Mark 12:28- 33)  Knowledge essential (Hosea 4:6; John 6:44,45  Knowledge by itself will not save a man  It will make one a fit candidate for conversion

The Qualities Of Nearness  Scribe was Open-Minded  Open-Mindedness Essential (Proverbs 2:1-5; Acts 17:11)  Open-mindedness by itself will not save a man.  It will make one a fit candidate for conversion.

The Qualities Of Nearness  Scribe was Courageous (John 12:42)  Courage Essential (Psalm 119:46; Matthew 10:32,33)  Courage by itself will not save a man.  It will make one a fit candidate for conversion.

The Qualities Of Nearness  Scribe was Humble (Luke 18:11-14; 10:21)  Humility is Essential (Matthew 5:3; Micah 6:8)  Humility by itself will not save a man.  It will make one a fit candidate for conversion.

The Terms Of Admission  To enter the kingdom of God, one must be born of the water and the Spirit (John 3:1-5).  This demands faith in Christ (John 8:24)  This demands repentance (Acts 17:30)  This demands confession that Jesus is the son of God (Matt.hew10:32,33)  This demands baptism into Christ for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38; 22:16; Romans 6:3,4; Galatians 3:26,27)

Not Far From The Kingdom  Many today are in the same condition as this scribe.  Why remain on the outside looking in?  Why remain on the borderland of God’s kingdom? (Revelation 3:20)  If you believe, do not hesitate. Obey today!
