One would think that if this kingdom is going to be largely invisible and appears too weak to defeat rivals.  It seems as if this kingdom is going to initially provide hope and then become a grave disappointment as one still struggles with the burdens of life under the sun.  However, this is not how Christ wants us to view this kingdom.  So, why would we have joy when God’s kingdom impacts our lives?  How should we react when we are informed by God’s kingdom?
