Jesus seems to say, “The kingdom of God doesn’t need to wait until something else happens. No, it is available and among you now. So start spreading the blessing spoken of by Abraham now. Invite people of all nations, races, classes, and religions to participate in this network of dynamic, interactive relationships with God and all God’s creation! I’ve taught you how to live in the kingdom way; now it’s time for you to teach others. Go on! Get going now!”
