This is a recent NOTE from Thomas E. Kresal in a Nine Part Series on the “KINGDOM OF GOD”

THE KINGDOM OF GOD – UNDERSTANDING

The kingdom of God and Kingdom of Heaven are used 101 times throughout Scripture (not just in the gospels). Considering how often this term is used, it is of great importance that we not overlook its significance. The Kingdom of God (as with any kingdom) is the realm or sphere of influence of which the King operates. It was preached by John the Baptist (Matt.3:1-2) then Jesus (Mark 1:14-15) who gave it to his disciples to preach (Matt. 10:17). Our brethren of Protestant persuasion have a system applied to the Bible which is not compatible with the preaching of the Kingdom of God today. Therefore, they must relegate it to a dispensational, Jewish gospel that applied only prior to the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. However, Jesus spoke of things pertaining to it after His resurrection (Acts 1:3) Philipp preached it to the Samaritans who were not Jews (Acts 8:12) and Paul preached the Kingdom of God to the Gentiles (Acts 14:22; 19:8; 20:25; 28:23; 28:31, etc.).

This is a recent NOTE from Thomas E. Kresal in a Nine Part Series on the “KINGDOM OF GOD” which I just reposted in a Teaching/Learning Unit. This instruction applies to me and any other posts … as much as anyone else … because I have been guilty of the same thing many times! Thanks, Tom!

“NOTE from Tom: This is a nine-part series and I would ask that you please read every segment before you attack the Biblical, age-old doctrine held by Baptists through the centuries. Many a Baptist has unwittingly been taught Protestant theology (including yours truly) and I understand the desire to defend your position (been there done that). Please keep in mind “He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.” (Proverbs 18:13)” by Thomas E Kresal
