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.
