Comment on Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done on Earth… by dangoldfinch

Phil,

Thanks for stopping by. A great help in my understanding of Kingdom has been the work of NT Wright. I don’t agree with him on all points, but I think he is very, very close to nearly always right.

Anyhow, another helpful point of view is that of Stanley Hauerwas’ Theological Commentary on Matthew (Brazos). Lot’s of good stuff here too.

Comment on Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done on Earth… by Phil

Hi Jerry
I was so glad to find exactly your blog. On Tuesday I strt leading a bible study in my church and felt strongly that I should be challenging people on this point – what do we understand by “the kingdom”? Some Christians view the kingdom as being some far off place, our eventual reward for salvation, but have little sense of God’s desire to redeem the world. I believe that Jesus came to earth to establish His kingdom here, amidst all the poverty, cruelty and ignorance – exactly to show us how to live according to kingdom values.
God bless your work.
Phil

Hi What an encouraging post! You should check out Gary Haugen’s latest book, Just Courage (www.justcourage.com) as it talks about giving up our security/comfort/fears in exchange for adventure/deeper knowledge of God when we seek justice!
