The theme of kingdom expansion runs through the entire Bible. God’s kingdom is an ever-expanding kingdom that is destined to fill the earth. In this message Phil traces the theology of kingdom expansion throughout the Old and New Testaments. The kingdom advances through the preaching of the gospel. At the heart of the expansion of the kingdom realm is adoption unto sonship. Jesus said, “I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you!” (John 14:18) We can reframe evangelism into a vision of adoption, transforming spiritual orphans into a great company of beloved sons and daughters. The kingdom looks like an ever-expanding family of sons and daughters. If it doesn’t look like family, then it doesn’t look like the kingdom. The prayer of Jesus in John 17 reveals the centrality of kingdom family in the fulfilment of Jesus’ master plan. The strength of our witness is the depth of our love. Jesus said, “Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are My disciples.” (John 13:35 NLT) The church is heaven’s adoptive agency and evangelists are beloved sons and daughters who carry the Father’s heart to adopt an entire generation. We are calling the lost sons and daughters into kingdom family. The success of Jesus’ mission is entirely contingent upon the manifestation of an authentic spiritual family that loves God and loves one another and who powerfully express a supernatural unity. The kingdom expands through love. May this message inspire you to reach out to the lost by reframing evangelism as an expansion of the love of the Father throughout the earth.
