Two Kingdoms Clashing

The Lord Jesus Christ promised to return again. In the interim, we are not merely charged to witness of His Love. We are explicitly commanded to introduce His rulership—the kingdom of God—into those circumstances in which mankind’s lost rule has produced impossible situations.

Christ’s whole life presents a clear picture of two kingdoms in opposition. That picture may be ...seen wherever truth confronts the universal Liar, reality exposes the sham of religiosity, health crashes into the domain of sickness, deliverance unshackles spiritual bondage, love overflows fear, forgiveness expels condemnation, and where wholeness expands the constriction caused by sin.

John 18:36 NKJV

Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.”
