(APOLOGIES FOR THE POOR AUDIO QUALITY) From the days of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom has been advancing. Jesus planted the seed of the Kingdom at His first coming and will reap the harvest of the Kingdom at His second coming. The kingdom is continually advancing and expanding and will do so until the glory of the Lord covers the Earth as the waters cover the sea.

The Glory of God is mentioned about 300 times making it one of the dominant themes of the Bible. God's original intention for us was to live in the glory - the very atmosphere of Heaven here on Earth. A message by Tim Stevenson

In this message, Matt Lansdown from Bethel Church Whangarei shares an invitation to go a little deeper with God. You never know what's just around the corner ;)

When evangelism is mentioned most believers shrink back. But it should never bring fear but joy - because we have been given the Holy Spirit to empower us! Evangelism in the Kingdom becomes a fun-filled adventure when we are filled with the Holy Spirit.

Everyone one of us has been given a field to influence. Our role as ambassadors in the Kingdom is to bring Heaven to that sphere. The key is to see yourself planted as a seed in that field.

The Kingdom is largely about influence - we are all called to be sons and daughters of influence. Church people worry that the world might influence the church; Kingdom people work to see the church influence the world.

Greatness is a potential on the inside of everyone. To realise it you have to choose greatness and show up. But show up as you because what you need is inside of who YOU are.

People often ask the wrong question: "Why did God have to put the serpent in the garden?" God did not put the serpent in the garden to tempt mankind. God put the garden on the planet which was already the serpent's domain then put mankind in the garden so mankind could expand the garden so the serpent would have no place to dwell on the planet.
