"There are actually only two kingdoms in the world; Good - God or Evil - Satan!" a True-ism
Most of the world systems work under a "Power Over" principle, which holds people in bondage, oppression, injustice, and violence or domination!
The culture is based on making oneself feel better through being number one or belonging to some group that tends to want everyone to think they are in control... It is this control and domination that drives most everything in this world of the here and now... The desire to want more and put oneself above others through privilege or position... It all comes down to selfishness and greed!!
The other kingdom is seldom spoken of is one of beauty, prefection, and love! Though it exist, most people tend to shun away from it in their pursuit of fame and fortune... So where and what is it you may ask??
It has and does exist all around us, it is the Kingdom of Heaven! We have a perfect example in the life and teachings of Jesus the Christ!
He exposed the ugly injustices of all the worldly kingdoms when:
1) He did not buy into the limited options offered by the world systems.
2) He offered a kingdom which is radically distinct, in that it does not try to rule from above or "Power Over" domination.
3) He exposes then unmask the demonic forces that fuel these world systems. This is where the Devil or Satan rules by attempting to control all humans the ultimate form of slavery which is no free will!
4) He showed that this kingdom does not fight "against flesh and blood" but "against evil rulers, against controlling authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present world's kingdom of darkness" These are those who attempt to control through "Power Over" domination!
5) He did not allow the politics or the society define his message or ministry. A ministery is where you help others to find the Truth at no cost!
6) He positioned himself as a revolutionary prophetic comment on the pages of history, which ultimately had the world changing effect upon all who embrace it down to this day! Yes, you can becomes a citizen of this Kingdom of Heaven today!
7) He introduced the Kingdom of Heaven which comes as a "Power Under" where first you change the heart and mind of people{including yourself} so they want to live the gospel plan in their everyday lives... It is free choice and the desire to develop a core belief that causes a person to want to live holy!
Remember: It is not about how much you make, or what kind of possessions you have, or who you know, or what political party you belong to, or what degrees you have, or your race, or which church you attend, or what language you speak, or thousands of other worldly things you may have or do!
BTW: read several related posts type "Kingdon" in the search box...
As kingdom of Heaven citizens we must not just wait for the issues of this life to change through the governments and actions of mankind....
We will discuss this in more detail in future posts...
