A Kingdom Lens (Pt.1)


Listen Later

In Pastor Chad's sermon, he explores the concept of the Kingdom of God, emphasizing its foundational role in our lives. He begins by highlighting that the Kingdom starts within us, rooted in God's original design for humanity as seen in the Garden of Eden. Pastor Chad underlines the significance of family as the nucleus of governance on Earth, arguing against cultural attempts to redefine what a family is. He asserts that understanding the essence of the Kingdom requires us to first see it as a family and governance system, shaped by the eternal relationship within the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This relationship exemplifies unconditional love, which should be mirrored in our own familial relationships.As the message unfolds, Pastor Chad stresses the importance of perception through the "lenses" we adopt in life. He encourages listeners to question the beliefs and thought processes that shape their worldviews, noting that these lenses influence how we interpret Scripture, see ourselves, and understand God. By focusing on the right lenses—those of the Kingdom and righteousness—we can change our reality and experience life as it was originally intended by God. He concludes by urging that true faith is manifested by believing what God believes about us, challenging the notion that we must constantly strive to prove our worth through actions. Instead, by renewing our minds and seeing ourselves as God sees us, we align with our true identities in Christ, leading to transformation from the inside out.
