Message Notes:
Philippians 2:15 ESV
Five Elements of a Kingdom
- We have to believe there is a King.
- We have to have a rule.
- Whenever the word Kingdom is used in the Bible it always means a people.
- The King has a will or a law.
- There is a land.
You always solve issues on the level that you see them.
Mark 1:14-15 ESV
The word “Repent” in the Greek means; to change your mind, heart, and direction.
1. The Kingdom of God is not just a place, it's a reality.
Scripture reference: Luke 17: 20-21
The Kingdom is not primarily about location, it is about dominion. It’s where God rules and reigns as King.
2. The Kingdom of God is hidden, not obvious.
Scripture reference: Luke 13:18-21 3
3. The Kingdom of God requires surrender, not status.
Scripture reference: Matthew 18:3
Entering the Kingdom of God requires humility and surrender.
God is King not us.
4. The Kingdom of God is both now and not yet.
Matthew 6:10 NIV
We are currently living in the tension between what has begun and what will be completed.
Acts 3:21 NLV
As followers of Jesus we are called to live in that reality now while waiting expectantly for its fullness to come.
5. The Kingdom of God changes the way we live in the here and now.
Scripture reference: Matthew 6:10
Hebrews 12:28 TPT
