Daiel 2:44-45 is Future Christiaity did ot suddely fill the whole earth Christ did ot destroy Rome No 10 simultaeous kigs i the time of Christ Christ was ot the smitig stoe Christ did ot destroy all the kigdoms of the world The church is ot a political kigdom Petecost, BKC 1336

Emerget: Kigdom He selected 12 ad traied them i a ew way of life. He set them to teach everyoe this ew way of life...eve if oly a few would practice this ew way, may would beefit. Oppressed people would be free. Poor people would be liberated from poverty. Miorities would be treated with respect. Siers would be loved, ot reseted. Bria McLare, A Geerous Orthodoxy, 111.

Emerget: Kigdom Idustrialists would realize that God cares for sparrows ad wildflowers-so their idustries should respect, ot rape, the eviromet. The homeless would be ivited i for a hot meal. The kigdom of God would come ot everywhere at oce, ot suddely, but gradually likea seed growig i a field, likeyeastspreadig i a lump ofbread dough, likelight spreadig across the sky at daw. Bria McLare, A Geerous Orthodoxy, 111.

Emerget: Kigdom The Kigdom of God is a cetral coversatio i emergig commuities Ad letmetell you Kigdom ofgod laguageisreally big i the emergig church (Italicsadded). Doug Pagitt, cited i Oaklad, 163.

Emerget: Kigdom If Revelatio were a blueprit of the distat future, it would have bee uitelligible to its origial readers I light of this, Revelatio becomes a powerful book about the kigdom of Godhereadow,availabletoall. Bria McLare, cited i Oaklad, 158.

Kigdom Rick Warre, cited i Oaklad, Kidle editio. I stad before you cofidetly right ow ad say to you that God is goigtouseyou tochage the world...i'm lookig at a stadium full of people right ow who are tellig God they will do whatever it takes to establish God's Kigdom "o earth as it is i heave." What will happe if the followers of Jesus say to Him, "We are yours?" What kid of spiritual awakeig will occur?

Kigdom If we are to be a part of this comig kigdom, God expects our lives our churches ad faith commuities too to be characterized by these authetic sigs of our ow trasformatio: compassio,mercy, justice, ad love demostrated tagibly. Oly the will our light break forth like the daw, our healig quickly appear, ad our cries for help be aswered with a diviehereami. Stears, Hole i the Gospel, 57.

Kigdom The gospel that we have bee give the whole gospel is God s visio for a ew way of livig Christ s visio was of a redeemed world order populated by redeemed people ow. Toaccomplishthis,wearetobesaltadlightiadark ad falle world, the yeast that leaves thewholeloafof bread(thewholeofsociety).wearetheoesgodhascalled to be His Church. It s up to us. We are to be the chage. But a chaged world requires chage agets, ad chage agets are people who have first bee chaged themselves. Stears, Hole i the Gospel, 276, 243-44.

Russell Moore Presidet: Ethics ad Religious Liberties Commissio of the Souther Baptist Covetio The locus of the kigdom of God i this age is withi the church, where Jesus rules as kig. As we live our lives together, we see the trasformig power of the gospel ad the i breakig of the future kigdom. Justi Taylor, A Iterview with Russell Moore, www.thegospelcoalitio.org.

Hal Lidsey The Road to Holocaust, 269 Bestsellig author Hal Lidsey wared what could happe to the church i the last days if she bega to see herself as the establisher of God's kigdom: The last days of the church o the earth may be largely wasted seekig to accomplish a task that oly the LORD Himself ca ad will do directly.
