The Kingdom
The Kingdom of God includes both His general sovereignty over the universe and His particular kingship over men who willfully acknowledge Him as King. Particularly the Kingdom is the realm of salvation into which men enter by trustful, childlike commitment to Jesus Christ. Christians ought to pray and to labor that the Kingdom may come and God’s will be done on earth. The full consummation of the Kingdom awaits the return of Jesus Christ and the end of this age.
“Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you.” Matthew 6:33
“Every knee should bow … and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:10-11
“Since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us hold on to grace. By it, we may serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe.” Hebrews 12:28
