Kingdom Come Quotes

“But if the gospel is about God coming to establish his reign of justice and peace over all his creation, then our mission as Christians is to see God's will, his kingly reign, happen in and around us wherever that is possible. It's not just about saving souls but about seeing that the poor are fed and the oppressed are freed.”

“Following Jesus might take us into dark, lonely places where we can't see any light at the end of the tunnel. Yet, scary as it may be, resurrection is not about God coming in the nick of time to save the day but about God coming after the corpse is dead and buried. Sometimes God reaches in only when the darkness has gotten pitch black and then shows his resurrection power to bring good in the midst of evil and pain.”

“The gospel is the story of a good King who has come to reign. In love, he has come to restore his justice, peace and love in a world gone mad. He has battled the enemy and won the decisive victory that will secure the enemy's defeat. And we are on the way to the day when he will reign and everything will resonate with his blazing goodness.”
