Kingdom of Heaven

Jesus spoke often of the Kingdom of heaven.

Just prior to his crucification, Pilot said to Jesus in John 18, "Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?"

Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence."

Jesus didn't fight nor should we because as Christians, we belong to the Kingdom of God and not the kingdom of this world which is headed up by Satan.

May we not lean on the arm of flesh for answers but may we trust and obey the Lord Jesus Christ through the power of his Holy Spirit in all that we think, say and do I pray in Jesus name.
