God's Kingdom

Welcome back to the Know and Do podcast, where we urge you to know God deeply and do what most glorifies Him. In this episode, we turn our hearts and minds toward one of the most powerful truths in Scripture: God’s Kingdom. We explore Article IX of the Baptist Faith and Message (2000), which teaches that God's Kingdom encompasses both His sovereign rule over the universe and His personal reign in the lives of those who trust in Jesus Christ.

I. God’s kingdom is both all-encompassing and personal. (Psalm 19:1-6, Romans 1:20, Psalm 145:13, Colossians 1:15-20)

II. God’s kingdom is the primary concern of all humanity, Christians and non-Christians. (Romans 15:8-13)

III. God’s kingdom is here and now, and it is yet to come. (2 Corinthians 6:1-2)
