Whatever else the Kingdom of God is, it cannot be equal to salvation. The New Testament lists no less than 7 conditions necessary for a person to enter the Kingdom of God. Now one does not have to accomplish all seven, but the fact that one must meet more than one condition makes it impossible to associate the entrance into the kingdom of God with receiving salvation by faith.
What are these conditions, and what is the significance of these conditions for New Testament believers? That is the subject of our study today.
