Description:
For many, when they first begin hearing intentional teaching about the Kingdom of God, there can arise an unsettling in their hearts. Because most Western Christians have been indoctrinated with a less-than-Kingdom version of Christianity, the concept of a literal Kingdom of God can seem foreign and awkward to them. Suddenly their Christianity is no longer centrally about obeying a list of rules, learning a set of truths, behaving morally as good Christian examples or attending worship services in a building once or twice a week. When the reality of the Kingdom is presented, there is a growing awareness that God has called us to a full and complete surrender of our entire selves unto His rule. We are being called to renounce all lesser kingdoms. Our loyalties are required to shift. Our values must be transformed. This is unsettling for many Western Christians who may even be concerned about whether they belong to Jesus at all after receiving understanding about what the bible says concerning the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom is so all-encompassing that, when one begins to initially grasp it, much of what they believed about Jesus and Christianity seems puny and paltry by comparison. They sense a need to bow lower, mover deeper and surrender more fully. At some point, they sense a need to receive greater clarity on the Kingdom. This message reveals the required posture of our hearts in order to both enter and continue in the Kingdom of God.
