14 Sources for the gospels 65ad:Rome 75ad:Antioch? 75ad:Syria? 103ad:Ephesus 14

15 Lifestyle of the kingdom Not how non believers should live but how believers should live Jesus is expecting a changed character Blessed are the poor in spirit, meek, pure in heart Very practical and verifiable Call someone an idiot murderer Lust after a women in mind adulterer Do not divorce and remarry Do not worry 15

16 Mission of the kingdom When you enter the kingdom you embrace a mission to bring others in Volumes on evangelism Ch 9-10 How? Raise the dead, cast out demons, healing the sick Then, tell that the kingdom in coming Details of How to travel What to take How to respond for opposition 16

17 Growth of the kingdom Sower Don't worry if 3 attempts fail. Pursue the next. It will yield 30, 60, 100 Weeds Wheat & weeds growth together. Don t worry if you see evil happen around you in church. Sorting is God s business but later Mustard Don t worry about small beginnings. Jesus started with 11 and now has 2Bn Pearl - Don t worry about protecting your valuables. Kingdom is of far greater value to miss Net Don t worry about bad converts. Both good and the bad fish are in the net. They will be sorted out later on the shore 17

18 Community of the kingdom Local church context Shepherd seeks 1 sheep out of 99 How to resolve conflicts within church Jesus presence when 2 or 3 are gathered in his name Hindering children s faith should be drowned with a millstone tied on his neck Parable of the unforgiving servant 18

19 Future of the kingdom Disasters in the world More frequent than ever before in history War Ethnic group vs Ethnic group Developments in the church Apostasy False teaching Love grows cold in the church Preaching will reach ends of the earth Dictator in the middle east For the sake of the elect those days are shortened Abomination of desolation Darkness in the sky Sun moon & stars are gone, lightening in the sky Jesus will come to reign the earth Elect will be gathered from 4 corners of the earth ( heaven and earth will pass away but my words shall not pass away Matt 24:35)19
