Believe it or not, Satan the Devil has deceived most of the churches of this world to virtually AVOID the very heart of Jesus Christ’s message to the world: The good news of the coming Kingdom of God! As a result, most who consider themselves “Christian” don’t even understand what the Kingdom of God is. If you want to defeat Satan’s plan to keep you in the dark, this edition of Tomorrow’s World is for you. Join us today as we answer the question the Devil wants you to ignore: “Just What Is the Kingdom of God?”
Welcome to Tomorrow’s World! where we help you make sense of the world through the pages of your Bible.
Today, we are going to explain in plain and simple terms the Kingdom of God—a mystery which almost no one understands today, including those who call themselves Christians!
What is the Kingdom of God? Is it just a feeling in your heart? Is it the church or the collection of Christians throughout the ages? Is it only in heaven?
And why is it a mystery at all? Why is there such confusion over the Kingdom of God in the first place?
We’ll also be offering you a free resource that explains why today’s churches are in such utter confusion: It’s titled Satan’s Counterfeit Christianity. Keep an eye out for the information you need to get your free copy.
Constantly in the churches of the world or in videos online, you will find men and women preaching about JESUS—who they think He was, the story of His life as they understand it, the miracles He performed, some of the things He said or did, His crucifixion and resurrection.
It all SEEMS to make sense, and to be sure, Jesus Christ IS the savior of the world. It IS by His shed blood that we are forgiven our sins. But we have to ask ourselves: Is the message preached by these churches THE SAME MESSAGE THAT JESUS PREACHED?
As we’ll see in a moment, Jesus did not come to only talk about HIMSELF. The HEART AND SOUL of the message, preaching, and teaching of Jesus Christ was about the KINGDOM OF GOD! That might surprise some of you, because we don’t hear much about the Kingdom of God today. Yet it is mentioned around 150 times in the New Testament.
Let’s take a brief, but sweeping survey of the ministry of Christ and of His disciples, and see for ourselves.
In the book of Mark, chapter 1, we read of the very beginning of Christ’s ministry, right after the imprisonment of John the Baptist. Here in verses 14-15, Mark writes:
“Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the KINGDOM OF GOD, and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the KINGDOM OF GOD is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
Jesus came preaching the gospel of the Kingdom of God.
In fact, look at Jesus’ statement in the book of Luke. In chapter 4, Jesus makes a very explicit statement about His purpose and His mission—ABOUT WHY HE WAS ON EARTH IN THE FIRST PLACE! In verse 43 we read, “… He said to them, ‘I must preach the KINGDOM OF GOD to the other cities also, because for this purpose I have been sent.’” Jesus tells us that His PURPOSE, the VERY REASON HE WAS SENT BY GOD, was to preach about the KINGDOM OF GOD!
The Kingdom of God was so central to Jesus’ message to humanity—to you and me—that He told us that seeking that Kingdom should be the number one focus of our lives. Read it with me in Matthew 6:33:
“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”
That same chapter of the Bible contains the famous passage commonly called “The Lord’s Prayer.” In that model prayer, Jesus mentions the Kingdom of God TWICE—at the beginning and the end. In fact, the four gospels are FULL of teachings and parables from Jesus ABOUT the Kingdom of God—so many we don’t have time on today’s program to read them all. Instead, let’s turn to a passage in the book of Acts that may surprise you.
Many people don’t know that the Bible says Jesus actually spent almost six weeks with His disciples before ascending to heaven to remain with His Father until His return—six weeks of teaching them and preparing them for their mission. And what did He focus on during that time? Acts 1:3 tells us that Jesus
“… presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the KINGDOM OF GOD.”

Are you the followers of Mr Herbert w Armstrong !?
Also Jesus keeps saying ‘REPENT for your sins’ he never says I will die for your sins.
He prays prostrating, and it says in the bible Jesus taught, “When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men … but when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your father who is unseen.” Never says pray to me. Do not pray in the name of Jesus, pray in the name of God almighty who is unseen.
Why didn’t you point out in the Lord’s Prayer where the kingdom is located?
You revealed some good Truth. Here are a couple more; Zephaniah 2:3 Some will be hidden. Rev 3:10 Hidden. Same as Matthew 24:22
1 Corinthians 2:2
"For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified."
• Galatians 6:14
"May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world."
• Romans 1:16
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes…"
• 1 Corinthians 1:23-24
"But we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God."
These verses emphasize the central message of the Christian faith, which is the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Plz pray for justice be done for the theif who stole two years of my salary and lying in court to be caught and know that we are not alone but that Jesus set a table for us before our enemies
I was at work speaking to the holy Spirit and he spoke quietly to me to learn about kingdom of God… This was few days back. I have since been reading my Bible and studying about the kingdom of God. Thank you Holy Spirit
So much complications in a simple verse. The kingdom of god is within. Your thoughts, your imagination, your visions, your beliefs. You can’t get any simpler or greater than that . We are the co-creators,,Peace ❤
The kingdom of god is gods earthly government
The last point is excellent, I hope the Called are listening and remember many are called, but few are chosen. many but not all at this time. study the bible, don’t just read it
My question: a Kingdom is made up of subjects…who are the subjects we the saints will to rule over? Other saints? Or animals? Or Those who didn’t accept Christ?(According to scripture, these will be in the Lake of fire)
Strange it’s a God makes the Bible confusing it but yet satan is the author of confusion which one is it us or satan
sounds like the message Jehovahs witnesses talk about ..however, I agree God’s kingdom is the main theme of the bible and I do believe
Amen ,we have to keep pray our king to control our spirit,our soul (willing,knowledge)and body ,juses is king
Why not call the messiah his real name "Yahosuah" no one can document where the name Jesus came from, and you know Yahosuah is his name.
The Kingdom of God is His Rulership. It’s Gods system of government. This is why we (His children) are referred to as Ambassadors 2 Cor. 5:20; Eph. 6:20 An Ambassador is a representative of a Nation in the land of another. We are not of this world but citizens of Heaven
Thank you for this teaching! Nobody teaches on the kingdom, and just earlier today I was wondering what the kingdom was exactly. Then I stumbled onto this. Lol PTL!
I learned of the kingdom of God 60 years ago, from Herbert W.
Armstrong
Great BUT, HOW WILL IT COME……
"❤❤❤❤❤❤❤"
We are all Gods people, all made in his image. The promise is for everyone!
There’s no such thing as Christians being Gods only people like they are special and everyone else are nothing. If you believe this, then you don’t know God at all. Yes it may say things in the Bible but the Bible is sadly misunderstood. God loves all and we all belong to him
Behold, i saw a new heaven and new earth for the first heaven and the first earth heard past away, and the sea was no more
Wait I need clarity partaning rapture, aren’t we caught up with Christ?
The Kingdom of God is too vast to limit it’s territory to just the Earth(assuming this planet as we know it)
AMEN!
Jesus is the devil
Jahovah is the kingdom

The teaching of heavenly life originated with Pagan religions
