Title: The kingdom of God
Text verse: Matthew 6: 10
Your kingdom come
Message: We await the coming kingdom of God.
Summary:
- The plea “Your kingdom come” is an important element of the gospel and its message.
- In the old covenant, the kingdom of God was envisioned as a political entity in which joy, righteousness, and wealth were to be the portion of all.
- The kingdom of God in the New Testament is not to be understood in a political manner, but as fellowship with God.
- We prepare ourselves for the coming kingdom of God, in which fellowship with God, peace, and righteousness will prevail in perfect fashion.
