524 Kingdom Postponed (Troy Sallinger)

Do the Gospels give you the impression that the kingdom of God is about to arrive? My guest today is Troy Salinger who wrote an interesting article called, "The Postponement of the Kingdom – A Response to Preterists and Anti-Missionary Rabbis." His idea is that the kingdom of God is a political restoration of the kingdom of Israel to one of David's descendants--and that this kingdom could have come during the time of Christ. However, because the Jewish people, especially the leaders, rejected Jesus as their Messiah, God postponed the coming of the kingdom until a later time. Salinger lays out four points:

    1. John and Jesus said the kingdom was about to be established
    2. The establishment of the kingdom was contingent.
    3. The Jewish leaders and most of the people rejected Jesus as their king 
    4. After the ascension, Christians are still waiting for the kingdom to come
