The Teaching of Jesus Concerning the Kingdom of God and the Church Quotes

“Our Lord occupies historic ground from the outset. From first to last he refers to “the kingdom of God” as a fixed conception with which he takes for granted, his hearers are familiar. In affirming that it is “at hand” he moreover ascribes to it the character of something forming part of that world of prophecy, which moves onward through the ages to its divinely appointed goal of fulfilment.”
