The Message of the Kingdom of God (The Bible Speaks Today Themes)
Overview
God made us to rule with him as his representatives, to establish his kingdom on earth. But Adam and Eve’s rebellion alienated humanity from God’s kingdom, becoming slaves instead to the kingdom of darkness. As the promised ruler, Jesus Christ comes as the perfect king to redeem enslaved humanity. The servant king brings God’s kingdom on earth through self-sacrificial love. In hope, we await the return of the king and the coming of the eternal kingdom.
