The kingdom of God does not begin by creating a perfect world, but by bringing salvation into this world.
The kingdom of God is not about presenting something, but about admitting that we all need change.
In this kingdom, it is not the sword that rules, but the word. People are invited in a promotional way, but not forced to do anything.
You are not born into this kingdom, you have to choose this lifestyle.
It is not good living conditions that change people, but changed people who improve living conditions.
The kingdom of God is often different from what we expect. That is why disappointment and blessing are often so close together.
Jesus opens up a new perspective on God’s kingdom. God meets us in our need and helps us – but sometimes in a completely different way than we expect.
